    omg YES. Nothing I have found since then has quite scratched the same itch of flying around with a friend on some random dude’s server. So much fun!

      Everspace 2 is really close in terms of combat and overall gameplay, but it lacks the immersive simulation aspects. Freelancers idle radio chatter did some heavy lifting back in the day.

      Word. The closest I found to the feel of Freelancer was X3 back in 2010, but the differences were glaring.

      There this Underspace that seems to be a “Freelancer meets Cthluhu”, I’ve yet to play the demo to get a feel of the space.
