Ciovala Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Only tangentially related. However, my first space-related game was Starflight (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starflight), so you can guess I'm a bit older. Loved the exploration, meeting new species, etc. Definitely got me into the genre, followed by Descent, Wing Commander, and others. Even if this game isn't going to be a 3D version of Starflight, it's overall concept is something I'm very interested in. I do hope it has character creation like Eve does, as due to the type of game this will be you'll actually have a point to it! Eagerly following this game and will support it when we're able to.

norab7 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Welcome to DU, I can't say I've played StarFlight but i certainly remember Descent, and remembering being frustrated at it because it was too difficult for me (just a kid then) they were back in the days of Dos and the 3D-menu were they not?. nora, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen001 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Bit older? Oh yeah? In my day Pac Man was high tech and all the rage. Happy another oldy has joined DU. Maybe we can build an old folks home together for retired space pilots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciovala Posted June 3, 2016 Author Share Posted June 3, 2016 Well, my first game was Defender on the Commodore 64. I was very young at the time, though. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamstar Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 I believe at first they intend for everyone to be in space suits. Post beta though, if we manage to keep the subscriptions coming in I'm sure they'll be more open to expanding the characters appearance options if it's highly requested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
