After some of the other games I've seen mentioned ITT (Halo, Mass Effect, etc.) I don't see why not. 😁 With that said, I do enjoy StarCraft II. I also put a lot of hours into Stellaris lately. If I had a better computer for it, I'd be happy to include EVE Online or Elite: Dangerous in my list of space games I play. I used to play Star Trek Online, and may go back to that when I have a computer that can run it again, but as a space sim MMO, I find it lacking compared to either EVE or Elite: Dangerous. Perhaps being a full-on space sim was never really the point of that one. Edited April 29, 2019 by Executor Akamia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I recently checked out the kerbal space program game on youtube. Not played myself. I kind of found that game pretty interesting based on the youtube gameplay. Check out the below video to learn more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does seem like a very interesting game indeed and I have also watched a few videos myself on Youtube. My takeaway is that you can build any aircraft you like provided that you have a way of making it completely functional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 I think it was meant for the simulation game category. Not sure if there was real life use for the game or not. But it does seem powerful with the simulation which can be pretty much good for the playing some of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerlene Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 I think the only space related game I've played was Space Invaders. I LOVE the game a lot. It's simple and fun. I like the arcade feel it gives me even when I played it on a normal gaming console as opposed to an arcade game. But the best way to play Space Invaders is on an arcade machine, hands down. If you haven't played it yet, I highly recommend playing it. Just don't expect a lot of detail as far as the galaxy goes. It's VERY simple.

skyfire Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Anyone played Stellaris? I know it's not the most popular one out there but it's one game I liked. You can check the gameplay below. Executor Akamia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 300 hours is a lot. I can't even imagine matching that one. I am not that younger anymore for that lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Executor Akamia Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 I really enjoyed playing it as a variety of different types of empires. Everything from pacifists to outright genocidals. But while I enjoy the single player well enough, the multiplayer is where I really have the most fun. The AI is too predictable, and the simulated politics of the game matter a bit more when it's actual humans who know what they're doing that you're dealing with rather than bots that can't even keep rebellions from occurring within their borders reliably. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 I think multiplayer tests your capacity towards the competition. Single player is good enough to test yourself against AI but with real human, you have to compete at some point makes it fun. killamch89 and Executor Akamia 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
