Can't believe how much Egosoft has supported the game post release.

I absolutely love the game and its depth. The entire X series has been fantastic right from the start. Heck, even the less favored X Rebirth (where they were upfront about it being essentially a massive engine overhaul with a game added on top at release, which was then refined and enhanced over the years post release) turned out great in my opinion. It's rare to find developers these days whom I still have confidence in. Good video

X4 is my dream game, is the one i keep imagine how would it should improve over time, and how amazing just is to be there, the emergent gameplay of X4 is one of the most amazing things i saw over my 25 years playing videogames, just the amazing spetacle that it is watching fleet battles alone is worth the price.
One of the first times i was amazed by this game, i was in an Holy Order space station with a war raging on outside, at some point and argon behemoth cross in front of the sun casting is massive shadow over the station, i couldn't barely belive once i look up to see, and all of sudden evething explode... game over apperead on my screem.
i restart the game again an this time i didn't loose any time and rushed to my ship, just in time to see the docking area of that station blew up again.
This is how amazing is X4, i have 5k hours playing this game, and i have many more stories like this playing this game, is one of the few games, where i trully immerse myself on the character, be a captain of a trader ship, crossing a dangerous region of space, , or an admiral doing though choices, in order to save the fleet...
X4 is in some ways, similar to a Bethesda game, where you can be a lot of things, the difference is that in whatever role you are playing, you do make the difference, you can clearly see what is going on if you isn't there to steer the ships to safety (or sometimes create a mess), different from an Elder Scrolls game though, you aren't a mage a aprentice who all of sudden becomes the head of the mages guild... no, you are you, you already is the head of your faction, you are the guy who start like the smallest worm in space, and through sheer effort, becomes the more important person in the galaxy, and how you would go about the galaxy itself, is what matters, again, in X4 you can see the results of your interference as your lack of interference, if you decide to help a faction in need, you can clearly see that your help did manage to turn the tide, at the same time you can see the after effects of not helping a faction, and amazingly enough, the effects may not always be the same.

You couldn't have put it better, the UI is what's holding back a much better experience.

Every time they have an update. I try to get back into the game. I love deep mechanical games, and I love space games.. I just don't know why I can't wrap my head around this game.

I've stepped away from space games for a while but always stay subbed, it's nice to see over the last few weeks all the videos you're putting out highlighting so many games and updates. It seems the genre is having a little bit of a Renaissance/revival right now and it's great to see, thanks for covering it!❤

Happy to see them focus on new player onboarding. One of the Hardest things about X3 was learning how the heck to play! I avoided X4 because I saw a ton of mixed reviews on the game at the time, but it looks like they're really putting work in to make the game better. Might have to give it a look again.

I really hope they improved AI significantly. This game is one of the best game I’ve ever played, but at the same extremely frustrating because of the bad AI.

It's still probably one of the best games in my steam library and have had many hundreds of hours in the same save since it came out.

Almost wiped out the HOP while the attacks from xenon are getting heavier and heavier so have been fighting wars on two fronts. (Their capital ships seem to be getting larger and more powerful and cause some serious sector disruption when they come thru the gate).

Have built around 8 massive stations and production chains which generate millions every couple of minutes which support many large fleets.

The hardest thing about this game is the deep learning curve and you just have to push through, some fantastic YouTube guys out there though to help you though. Can't recommend @TheRuggedGamer enough.

I cant believe how much I love this game.

I’ve had this game in my library for a long long time! I recently got into it when 7.0 came out, and it’s actually so good, performance is miles better than when I first tried it, and there’s so much to do and learn, I don’t want to go to bed lol

[renealbrechtsen]

Been playing X4 on and off. Definitely excited for this :)

[Peckh]

This game is SO SO UNDERATED. Please support these devs

[Mooncake]

as a really old x series enjoyer who pretty much knocked out the whole story mode and ended up building my own completely self sustained mega huge factory that makes everything from ship parts to foods and every other commodity in a little over 180 hours in the game, i cant wait to see what this new update is about. really exciting stuff. thanks for the video, would not have found out other wise. def gona give this game another visit

I literally built a custom macro pad for this game when it was new... I might have to dust it off. Man... after getting so thoroughly burned by Frontier and RSI, this has been a delightful change of pace.

7.0 is amazing. X4 is currently the best space game there is. Imo of course...

[Kev]

This looks amazing, it's about time I gave it another go.

This game is a permanent resident on my SSD. A space epic for the thinking gamer.

[TheDarqn]

Thanks for the heads up, bought the entire pack waiting to come out of beta.
