I haven't played it all that much yet but so far this is what I've been looking for. I grew up playing X-Wing Alliance (I never played X-wing or Tie fighter) and I loved it. I've been looking for a game similar to that and this is it. I like how it is complicated with energy management and subsystem targeting and wing management. I was very pleasantly surprised at how similar this game was to my beloved x-wing game. The modding community for this game is also quite insane. There are graphics packs and total conversions for almost every sci-fi show out there. While I don't always play space sim games, whenever I get the urge this one will be at the top of my list.
