X3 After X4 Recommendation

Post by RyanHeart »

Hi everyone :), a little bit of a background then my question my first game was x3 around 15 years ago when i was 10 years old i didn't understand a bit cheated got a big ship shot something died, and never played x3 again i played x rebirth though albeit mainly as an exploration and with boardable xenon mod and ship's interiors mod mostly as a xenon capital collecter.

I must admit i pirated those games btw didn't have any money when i was a child and wanted to play everything under the sun and turkey isn't a good place to buy games cheap now though an university student having a bit of money i bought x4 in 2020 tried it couldn't understand it tried it again in 2021 2022 same thing, now i played x4 with all of its dlc's straight for 2-3 weeks doing nothing else :D with terran start i managed to get 7.5 billion empire from ground up and oh boy this game is insane i loved it

You know what also ? This universe has a great story just presentation is lacking, read 100 first pages of the pdf btw, hooked in.

So i want to play every x game now both for its lore and some nostalgia, heard great things about x3

want to buy that first wth all expansions, do you guys recommond it ? any tips perhaps :) thnx for hearin me out

Yes, highly recommend it. Great with mods as well (Litcube's Universe is one of the big ones to consider).

The game doesn't scale as well as X4 with large empires, but the UI is a lot smoother to navigate (with keyboard in particular).
