Star Control Discussion Board

I had no idea a Rogue Legacy sequel was even in development, I loved the original and will definitely be checking this one out.

One of the things I love about SC2 is that it doesn't feel the need to explain away every mystery and detail, and a lot is left open to individual interpretation even once you've seen everything and the credits have rolled. I want the same thing from GotP: Address plenty of hanging threads from the ...

I don't think anyone believes SC2 is perfect beyond reproach. I know the entire lander part of the game is commonly cited as a weak point (I personally like it, but even then it does get repetitive, especially in the early parts of the game when you need to build up some resources and can't venture ...

Yeah, I wrote off trying to get good (or even passable) with the Probe decades ago. While it's nice that they let you try to fly it yourself, it's pretty clearly designed to be used primarily by the AI.

I remember a similar feeling when first starting to play SC2. Trying to keep a handle on momentum and not slam into the planet was tricky, but I felt it most with the slower ships, not the fast ones (mostly).

I played both SC1 and 2 way back on DOS (SC2 first, to be fair, which is what drew me to seek out 1) in the early '90s. I never really developed much of a taste for 1, but SC2 remains in my all time top 10 to this day. I only heard about the Starflight games years later, either here or on UQMF, and ...

I've lived here since 2009, when I got married. I had no idea anyone else here was practically right next door. So as of yesterday, Bucks is under the same lockdown as Montgomery, so we are sheltering in place. I had already taken off next week (we had originally planned to go away for a few days, b...
