Description
Freespace 2 includes the FRED2 editor available in the installation directory of the game.

The year is 2367, thirty two years after the Great War. Or at least what YOU thought was the Great War. The seemingly endless tide of Shivan capital ships, bombers and fighters with super advanced technology was nearly overwhelming.

As the Terran and Vasudan races finish rebuilding their decimated societies, a disturbance lurks in the not-so-far reaches of the Gamma Draconis system.

Your nemesis has arrived... and they are wondering what happened to their scouting party...

Good Space Combat

But what about the fact that there exist no real characters? Everyone's just called Alpha, and as such the protagonist's interaction with the world is bizarre and stilted. A squad that sticks by you, a sense of movement as you move from division and division, the fact that command is constantly pulling some suspicious sh*t never becomes a factor in the story, and Bosch the narrator and point of interest fades anticlimactically out of the story. Now I've also tried to make some excuses for the strange ending, it could be kind of a cool anticlimax if the preceding game had been suitably involving, but it wasn't. I felt cheated.
