X3: Reunion

Years ago I bought a game that seemed to be a well amde version of Freelancer. At the time I had played Elite and Pioneer and thought those were the ultimate space games. I fondly remember playing them on our Amiga. That game was X2 and it sucked me into its open world with its neon lit finger. (I will be making a review mark my words as soon as I'm done with Terran Conflict, mark my words! Let's see if GOG did a miracle). I needed more and after playing X:BTF to death I tenuously bought, as I was unsure if my laptop could handle it, X3: Renunion 2.0 from the CEX store. This version, little did I know, was a Game of the Year edition which meant not only that it had all the wallpapers and icons but a comprehensive guidebook and flavour textbook that enhanced the game. This is truly the best X game that has been made so far. Now at this point you may be wondering why this warrants only 4 stars. The reason is that while the game is indeed the full version that X3 deserves it sadly does not include this booklet. Granted this was free and in fact was compiled unofficially by fans of the series and sure Egosoft just simply lifted this from the forums; the quality was as simple as a hastily made PDF with a white background and oodles of text. That was it. It's the sort of thing an amateur would make which can be downloaded onto the internet. It was eventually compiled and made into The X3 Handbook which you can get for around $2 Yet I cannot help but feel that such an obvious and touching act of love for such an incerdible game deserves to be in this version if not to guide people in what is in fact a very complicated game but also to demonstrate how much Egosoft does appreciate its fans and want to demonstrate their efforts, While I can understand why GOG would not be able to put something that is paid for onto its bonus package it somehow makes it seem shallow. I guess it can't be helped...

Better with mods

Well, i bought this game a few days ago, did one or two of the first missions and then decided to try the sandbox part of the game. I wanted to raise some money, get some new equipment, maybe change ship... so i started looking for oportunities in trading and side missions. Well, i've read some of the other reviews praising this game, but to me the economy seems completey broken. Products are sold at a higher price than they are bought. The only thing i was able to trade was energy cells. The side missions are rare and many times are locked to a specific type of ship, wich you dont have when you start, so the ones you can actually accept and complete are rarer still. My ship was damaged on a collision on one of the first story missions, but to repair it, i must spend enough money to buy a new one. Idk.. am i doing something wrong? Cos other people around here seem to be enjoying the game. To me, without the economy this game is just a space shooter.
