    I need to revisit FreeSpace.

    It holds an absolutely sacred place in my heart, coming out during my formative pre-teen years with its gut wrenching space opera story and sci-fi set pieces. I can still hear the voice of Terran Command, crystal clear.

    FSOpen and the Hardlight forums put together some absolutely beautiful work in modernizing the engine that I never got to truly appreciate in my university years because no joystick could hold a candle to the Logitech Wingman Interceptor that I cut my teeth on.

    But now, now I am an adult. I have a modicum of disposal income and an even smaller portion of free time, but I can make this happen. I can take on the Shivans again.

    …perhaps on Easy.
