Sometimes we dive into something without looking, and we end up in over our heads. The only thing that I knew about the X3 series was that they were in-depth space simulators, and that they had a small but rabid, passionate fan base. I had no idea how deep that rabbit hole went. And so I'm going to have to do multiple reviews for this game; one preliminary first impressions, and one once I've explored more and really gotten a handle on the mechanics.
Let's take a look, shall we?
There will be no X-Media Wednesday post today, for I am in mourning. This morning, an old beloved friend of mine was murdered by a rat. Wednesday, April 3rd, 2013, Disney officially shut down LucasArts. All current projects have been cancelled, including Star Wars 1313, which many people were greatly anticipating, as well as Star Wars: First Assault, which was meant to be a sort of precursor to Battlefront 3.
Today is a black day in gaming.
