Freespace 2

This game have received a lot of praise over the years, and I enjoyed it as well. Still, there's some flaws at this game. Basically, it's a space shooter, and a great one as well. it never gets too complex, most of the missions is just "shoot the bad guys and make sure we don't get hurt"... One problem is the overall universe and plot, which is narrated some extremely boring briefings, that you will want to skip instead of plowing through long pages of space-military-blah blah forever. Other than that, pretty nice game, and do yourself and install FSopen, that will improve the graphics radically, and give you the opportunity to play new campaigns.

Call me when its $5, not 9.99.

Read the reviews and was expecting something great for a space sim game. I was disappointed. The graphics were worse than Freespace and the gameplay and missions weren't any different or improved at all. This ended up being more of a rehash of Freespace and nothing more. Good thing i didn't have to pay much for this or i'd actually be mad about it. Back to Freelancer and Mechwarrior.

Bear in mind that this game was released in 1999... it was and may still be a truly awesome game. Right off the bat, let's get it out of the way, gog has done it dirty bacause Freespace 2 has been freeware for many years now (try fsoinstaller dot com). That said, this version deserves 0 stars because not only does it NOT WORK it actually wrecked my gog galaxy installation somehow. Compatibility modes, turn this on, that off, yell at it - nope. No work. And then Galaxy stopped working so bad not even a fresh install got it functional so 'Dear GOG, you've really screwed this up in every way possible'. (eventually got galaxy to work again, can't remember how though.) 2 stars just for keeping awareness of this legendary title alive though.

The game doesn't work on Windows 10.
