Zazz Razzamatazz posted:Say what you want about ED's grind and late game play- one thing they absolutely nailed was the spaceflight and landing/taking off. Give me that in a Star Wars universe and I'd be all over it. Or more Tie Fighter... that was a blast back in the day. First game I really got into. Yeah, I'm hoping for more X-Wing/TIE. To be fair though, the flight model in those games was pretty arcadey (but then, so is star wars, so whatever). The "sim" elements were in energy/shield management.

Zazz Razzamatazz posted:X-wing/TIE also had- I'm struggling to describe it properly- more scripted? story-driven battles maybe? Both definitely had solid narratives to their mission structure. I 100% nerded out to the Farlander papers included with the collectors edition (or whatever it was called) as a young dork. It's not really a criticism given the era, and I'd be on board with the flight model being more involved, but both of those games have _not_ aged well, as far as the flight model is concerned. Also: Any X-Wing mission that had a star destroyer and I had ion cannons: that thing was dead, y'all. Y-Wing OP.

colonelwest posted:you have to be the lone pilot accomplishing everything yourself, and the only friendly ships would just be flying around randomly in the background as set dressing. Ironically, that _was_ pretty much how it worked in X-Wing/TIE. They did a decent job dressing it up otherwise, though.
