This game reminds me of my teenage years when my dad and I used to play it. I think it's one of the best games I've ever played. It's got the feel of arcade games where you can only save at certain points and have to "pay" with in-game money. It's pretty simple to play but still challenging, because it's really hard to kill enemies while keeping an eye on your ammo. There are loads of levels, and they're all designed really well with a story in mind. And the story? Oh boy! When it comes to the challenging topics in regards what artificial intelligence like ChatGPT can do today, the game designers thought already ahead in an dystopic future where you have to defeat some evil AI computer made by the Until Empire engineers. The music in the game is great too, with a different vibe for each level – some are darker and more mysterious, while others are faster-paced and full of action. I'm just repeating myself, but it's a great game. I'd love to play it again. I've got the CD here at my desk, including the activation codes, but I can't get it to work on my PC. I'd even be willing to spend money to have someone bring it back to life on my computer. GOG team, you guys would make me so happy if you'd bring this game up on GOG and let me relive my childhood! Thanks for reading.
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
