As a former X player - yes, the one without a number - I am very satisfied with X4 nowadays.

It also runs smooth af and makes use of my precious cores instead of hogging to only one or two. All slidersss max :D

I'd only wish for _more_ ship interior designs I could walk around in just for the fun.

…oh and absolutely use a SSD for that save folders. Saving takes very long.

As Cities: Skylines comes up to the five year mark, it's on a big sale

Cities Skylines is a very special game. I sunk way too many hours into this and still enjoy it on occasion.

There’s a nifty plugin that allows to overlay a png image with transparency so one could hobble together a map with imported heights data from e.g. NASA and overlay it with streets, rivers and train tracks from e.g. Google Maps.

This results in recreation of real cities within the engine bringing the hardware to it’s limits.

There are also hundreds of downloadable assets in the workshop.

Inspired by Master of Orion, free and open source 'FreeOrion' has a new release up

Quoting: Purple Library GuyI'm not sure what I think about "removing micromanagement". Usually with this kind of game I'd rather micromanagement was made easier than taken away.
Played it yesterday. Agreeing on all points :)

It's still a fun experience so far.

Quoting: kaimanThalion, the developer of Ambermoon went under shortly after its release, and I assume the remains were scooped up by Blue Byte. Both games basically share the same look and feel, so it's likely a port (or rewrite) of the original engine.

For me, Ambermoon was pretty much the best RPG on the Amiga. But on the PC there were better games than Albion.
…and some years later - BAM - Avatar 3D. And I was like: I know that style :D
