Its a good time to be a space sim junkie.

I think I saw you playing Evochron Legacy recently, JH?

If so, I'm sure I and others would be interested in your comparisons. (I've got that and the X3:TC/AP games already; not Elite or Star Citizen yet. But I haven't played X3 or Evochron yet.)

This game hates Windows 10. I can't get any device to friggen work. Thinking about getting a refund.

Oh, wait, hadn't read that yet in the Friday thread!  :'( Hopefully won't be a problem for Win 8.1...  :-\

Also, hope you can get your control configs sorted out on it.

It seems to only be a problem with the X55 on win 10. You should be ok on win 8.1. Vice is working on fixing it though, and he has ordered his own x55 to troubleshoot it. Pretty solid move I think!

That is indeed great news  O0

Finally deciphered the shipbuilding arcanae in Evochron: Legacy, and after blinging up my starting "Arrow" build for a more trade-explorer path (which the game could have offered me directly but I wanted to learn better), I flew my first accepted mission photographing the night side of the nearby wretched planet; then dropped down to refuel at a local surface base (looking for some cheap textiles while I was at it), and got battered by an unexpected carbon-rain thunderstorm.

I have taken my first step into a whole new world. I'm not entirely sure I've ever played a HanSoloish space 4x sim. I mean, I've known about them since before prehistoric times, but I don't think I've ever played one. Ever. And I love both games like Wing Commander, and games like Sid Meir's Pirates (and so naturally I wanted Privateer, but never got around to buying it, mainly because my computer specs were barely good enough to play Strike Commander).

No doubt this will end Friday afternoon when I get home from work to fire up XCOM2. But still. Achievement accomplished, or something like that.  O0

Elite, Star Citizen, Rogue System and now Evochron Legacy...looks like it was just released today. Sure its not as flashy as some of the others, but for a one-man development team, I'm impressed. 40% off making it $14.99...sold!

When do you have time to play all your collection? I struggle to play mine - and with a lot of games gathering virtual dust too! And I suspect you have more games than me! ;D
