I was gutted when we got a PC as the family computer as we'd been asking for an Amiga. But Wing commander is one of my most loved childhood gaming memories.

Nexus was such a waste of potential. The story was great but they dropped the ball on making it non-linear. It could have been 5 times greater than it was. Ship customization was also superficial because there were only 1-2 setups that got you through the missions.

Me and my brother had a similar prototype. But we wanted to do it Eve style where we quickly found out server load through the damn roof, so we made it for home servers, like Minecraft. I wrote gravity and EM system. Out thing though was we had every single missile, cruise missile, gun emplacement, PD, every ship, every drone, it's own virtual operating system, so most things had their own copy of FreeRTOS but we had 2 others you could use, upside being you could modify every single little thing to your liking in software but it needs to be simplified. It has great challenges, like getting random procedural galaxies set up without breaking everything. The server part had *massive* memory leaks that were hard to solve, we needed to fake 128bit precision for every single star system in the galaxy. It would be ideal if we could just make 256 bit precision. The whole server part needs to be rewritten and I want to but each and every time I get too lazy. I do want to pick it up again. We will see.

Always enjoy a trip thru the galaxies with LTG at the starship helm....another fine review packed with subjective and fair views....onwards and upwards x

Star Atlas is worth mentioning but since it's blend of game and reality you have to be mature enough to apprieciate it.

Although it's already released another good one is Delta V: Rings of Saturn. It uses the triangle symbol for delta so it's a bit tricky to find on steam but search for rings of saturn and it pops up. It's a 2D space mining game that features very realistic physics and has very much The Expanse vibe to it. I haven't played it in a bit but I know the developer at one point talked about reaching out to the creators of The Expanse to see if he could use Belter creole. Great list. I've seen a few on here that I'm going to take a look at already.

They need an Expanse DLC for X4. Or just a standalone Expanse game that isn't telltale.

x4 foundations imo is vastly under rated. it is an amazing game. I feel they advertise it poorly.. (1 big turn off is the title X4, makes it sound turn based, add on top that the look at the galaxy 2d look with hexagons. it looks sounds like galactic survival and games like it....... not bad just not new and worth the money they are asking... they dont show what all u can really do in the x4 and it turns a lot of people off before getting it. 2nd is yes the ui and menus for people who get it. that could be cleaned up i feeel i personally not a fan of the story quests......... add on top they are buggy and i personally struggle to figure out wtf they want me to do. that said i skip all quests i can because of that..... beyond that i love the game. the freedom to do almost anything.

I have a love hate thing for Star Citizen but the reason I dislike star citizen is it feels like things are not being prioritized where they should be prioritized . The thing I love about the game is no load screens and everything is just accessable to enter from planets, to ships to walking around and hanging out with several friends doing activities . To be blunt The technology used in Star citizen should be utilized in other games as well just with a team that will actually prioritize stability and know only to add content AFTER they stabilize the servers .

Funny how all these games come out and both Elite Dangerous (ED) and Star Citizen (SC) players temporarily leave their games to play these new games, and then come back. Although, Star Citizen is stealing ED players

"Colony Wars" was such an exciting game back in 1998- 1999 james earl jones and the different ships. Oohs and awes. Only game since that gave me ooh and awes was Freelancer in 2003. Then much later mass effect Andromeda which is a game i actually liked played it twice just like dragon age inquisition i beat that though never quite beat Andromeda great game though. Games are getting crappier the difficulties are mixed up the numbers and values are arbitrary. the stories are stupid. The visuals are with too many junk christmas lighting effects.

X4 is actually a remastered version of X2. Where the updates in X2 were free of charge, almost the same updates with X4 are payable DLC's. the buglist is nearly the same for all the X games. Meaning some bugs will never change. Because the devs don't care about them. The community didn't want the changes in X3. So in all the frustrations we got X4, a game made by frustrated devs! what ones was a good update for the game in X2, are now cash inflows for X4. I wonder what X5 will be like?

Yeah there is so much wrong in this comment I don't know where to start. Me and Tom are also independent in all our views on games. If we like a game it's because...we like it 😆

The thing is that most of these game looks like they are coming straight from the early 2000s but with better graphics. No significant improvement to the gameplay. In 2024 I hoped we could have more games like Star Citizen with characters, scenarios, missions, planetary and space exploration with alien life and civilizations to interact. I see nothing of that in a game. I see some parts of that in various games. I don’t want to see "classic space games" any more. I want the next level games. I mean Starship Commander seems great as an idea. But it feels empty of real gameplay. What good is it to travel to the outskirts of cosmos if there is nothing there to find and interact with? Boring.... Stellar Wanderer seems interesting but it's just a ship fighting. More classic and overused. No character to walk around ships, stations, planets and NPCs to talk, fight, have adventures with and more. BORING...... DISAPPOINTING.... OUTDATED....
