Dear God please play Freespace 2. I'll also Echo that Descent 3 is pretty fun, and graphically not too hard on the eyes even after all these years.Plinglebob said:This! You can get it for $10 at GOG.com, download the various hi-res mods people have made to make it prettier if you wish, and sink 20 odd hours into the best space sim ever.The Madman said:Freespace 2 is a must play. Not only possibly the best space-sim to date but also works really well with force feedback joystick and is an absolute joy to play.
I have not yet tried a flightstick on Mechwarrior Online, mostly because I need to get a new flightstick setup, and I'm waiting until they fully implement analog flightstick controls before I go out and buy a new one.
Oh, and cradle your joystick, and go look at STAR CITIZEN together while you gently stroke its buttons, murmering "soon" to it.
