I’m a massive sci fi fan and played the ever loving shit out of Star Citizen for a while there. Loved the 6 degrees of freedom and the capability to be a person or a starship.
I know Starfield is coming in September and I’m excited for what is has to offer but in the interim does anybody have a sci fi/star fighter game they can recommend? I kickstarted Everspace 2 so I can give that a go and I’m almost done with the current No Man’s Sky expedition
If you’re into classic 6DoF games, then the Descent series (including Freespace) and Forsaken are go-to plays for me. We’re talking late 90’s/early 00’s, though, so take that with a grain of salt.
What about Freespace 2? I see it on sale on GOG right now for 20% off
Freespace 2 is a classic and one of the best space sims ever. Make sure you install the fan updates:

Oh, and you need a joystick for it (or at least used to).
What do these updates do for me?

I was looking for this game. Spent some many hours playing growing up. One of the best space sims ever
Sublevel Zero is a rougelite of the Descent concept, it’s quite nice imo
Forsaken is a name that drags up old memories. I bought that game on the N64 from a flea market stall when I was probably 12 years old. I hear there’s a better version released for PC though I never owned it.
I only ever played the PC version and it took until much later in life to hear it came out on N64. I couldn’t go to that version, it just didn’t play as nicely.
