Nexus: The Jupiter Incident is one of the most incredible and underrated games of the last twenty years. As good as Homeworld, if not better in certain areas. An incredible experience.
I remember buying this game on a STORE SHELF at a COMPUTER STORE when it came out in 2004 based on a MAGAZINE review! Ahh the good old days (I never did finish the game, time I did!)
What's modern Space Sims have is scale! You feel the vast emptiness of space and the sheer size of planets and capital ships. What's missing is focus, X-Wing, Wing Commander, and Freespace made you feel like a fighter pilot on a Space carrier. With narrative, wingmen, barracks and flight decks. Intergalactic Wars with reason to suit up and launch of the decks.
Speaking of forgotten games: have you ever heard about Freelancer? Where it is?! WHere?! How could you forgot such a gem?! 😀 But on the other hand: amazing compilation and summary and thank you so much for this. See you in your next space sim video. Keep the good work man! Cheers.
Nexus the Jupiter incident will always have the top spot in my heart. I-war and it's sequel were gems as well. And for the ancient ones... Warhead for the Amiga and Atari ST
I've tried several of these games (some of which just based on your recommendations on this channel!) And i would love to see a future video focusing on a game with carrier ship based mechanics. That's a particularly itch that very rarely gets properly scratched.
I have Space Engineers, and children of a dead earth (i have very few hours). I was surprised that Elite Dangerous and Stellaris (even though Stellaris is more of an RTS) were not on the list.
I stopped play SE after playing over a thousand hours. Now I wait for SE2 because I want a single block grid. This IS one thing which I wanted in SE before. Large grid can creates only ugly forms of ship, but small grid haven't a lot of blocks. (of course I know that this can be fixed by mods, but I don't want mods). Second thing IS velocity, 100m/s is TOO slow.
Have I said I love you lately, this series has been fantastic for my library, in a addition to the hits of nostalgia from old favorites. Having them together in one spot is great. Side note, rebel galaxy does something special, it makes a capital ship feel like a capital ship.
Rings of Saturn, Astrox imperium, rebel galaxy, interstellar rift, are all great games I've found cus of you and obsidiant's videos and I'm so thankful.
Terminus! It had a brutal learning curve, and had no problem making me learn to be infinitely patient in between anything interesting. Also, I still love and play Space Engineers for about a month every year.
Fantastic compilation! I was thrilled to see Tachyon: The Fringe, Rebel Galaxy, The X franchise (which is criminally underappreciated, IMO), and Helium Rain on the list. I absolutely adored X3: Albion Prelude so to see X3: Farnham's Legacy to be included on the list was a treat! Astra Protocol 2 looks fantastic and not one I can say I recall hearing about, so I appreciate seeing it here!
Great video !! I think I own most of these space sims, either on GoG/Steam , or physical editions!! I you want to bring someone into the SpaceSim genre, you cannot go wrong with Darkstar One. Simple but not simplified controls (you can either play it as an FPS but you can also use a HOTAS), easy docking AND the ability to cast "space spells"!!! It can get repetitive after a while, but by then you are either hooked to it or not!!! It was also ported to Xbox 360 and Nintendo Switch!! Parkan II is a remake actually of the original "Parkan: The Imperial Chronicles". I 've both completed them, and Parkan II is the better game, a bit repettitive by the end, but a commendable effort. Liberation, is a little fun game, made by a very nice developer. But I always disable retro rendering, since I prefer the much more cleaner polygon look!!
OMG Dark Star One, I completely forgot about this one ! And big up for Nexus, It's still installe on my PC to this day, with the same mods I have kept for 20 years ! Not sure if we can add "Orbiter" to the list, it's a space flight simulation game, like Flight Simulator but for the solar system, and with mods you can max your realism to no end.
Damn it... Ended up buying a couple of your recommendations! 🤑 Great vid, keep up the great work. I'd love for a decent mod for Tachyon: the Fringe, as well as I-war 1+2 which sorted out the bugs and made the graphics a bit higher res for modern displays!
HOLY SHIT somebody actually mentioned Parkan! I've never seen anybody aware of its existence! It's a very old very oldschool game where the whole story was put into humongous manual file inside CD. It is actually a series, there is parkan iron strategy(1 and 2) which tried to blend fps and rts genres, there is parkan imperial chronicles(VERY old game, but same genre as parkan 2, parkan 1 if you will).
But, I'm going to say, some of these games aren't really 'forgotten' I'm still seeing people play Space Engineers Empyrion may not be as popular, it's still being played. Between the Stars is still being played. Battle group VR, which takes a lot of ships from Between the stars, strengthening that it isn't forgotten, is still new.
missing Distant Worlds Universe on this list not gonna lie it is an incredibly deep detailed space sim of controlling a space empire like stellaris but with an actual living galaxy where you can control everything by yourself or give everything to automation and control a single ship (which you can design to your needs/liking) and go on a single space captain adventure as a role play agenda... you can even play as pirates who messes with empires or do all sorts of roleplaying things... just the automation fact is worth the game where you can truly just focus on the aspects you like and give control of everything else away with the option to overwrite ai decisions ofc you even require to refuel ships which gives tactical importance to gas mining stations to cut off fuel supply to enemy empires... and the galaxy can be freaking huuuge
I wish there were more options for elite dangerous. I mean go your own way at your own pace , landable planets, multiple ships trade and exploration. Seems to me most focus on ship combat, fleet building or building things in general. Whereas I personally like the live in the gritty space world feel. Again shame you have only star citizen or elite dangerous as choice for that both with faults (or ancient games)
I own 17 of these and have another 6 on my wish list. But I just added a few more there including Liberation haha. Looking forward to more videos in the series!
@@L3r4k I had it from ages ago, tried it in the past and it was nothing special back then. I went to look at it again when I was thinking about playing Space Enginers and I was shocked by how great it is. I ended up having a server for the family and its still going (unmodded). The interface is confusing at first, but once you get past it there is tons of depth. I realised that the reviews (good and bad) tended to have huge playtime hours. Its very deep, sometimes clunky and looks amazing (sunset on a planet) to basic (sharp contrast) when you meet npc´s, they look like they are from a game from 2005. :D As an experience, its been the best thing I´ve found in ages (I liked ARK in the past, Conan Exiles and I play Elite Dangerous). Its an odd one, but worth checking into.
Few of these are really awesome and impressive, but i rather preffer a more peaceful space game where the most gameplay is not destroying eachother's spaceships and instead focusing on gathering minerals/other space materials and finding planets to live and populate.
tachyon the fringe ship spinning is caused by some free look button or something i had it too on my pc and i pressed a button that changed how the aiming works and it stopped.
Id love the space opera style, with characters and relationships and a sense of being part of a great whole. A lot of space games get the sim part, or the logistics / trading... But they dont have that mass effect / wong commander sense of characters. Wheres the crew i can get to know, wheres my reason beyond just... Making money / exploring. That's what id love to see
as a 80s kid, its truly sad that the whole genre of "spacefighter" games are basically non existent! and before ppl start crying out, im talking about those *"you are only a pilot"* games, without management, or rescources, money, etc..... just being a pilot is enough & alot of fun (if done right) and coming from X-Wing & freespace & co i REALLY miss these kind of games, where you are just thrown into a good story, but are basically "powerless" and just one cog in the warmachine.
most space games are just weird and oftentimes feel nonrewarding and clinical. having said that, i liked the older wing commander and privateer series a lot.
Big fan of the Starcom series; they are some of the best *science* fiction games around, with a fascinating setting and great combat. I would recommend trying Starcom Nexus first, though. I need to mention Star Valor though. It's a fairly unknown game but it's another 2D open world space RPG, and it's got fantastic combat plus qutie a lot of mechanical depth. It's more of a open world game with RPG mechanics, but... what it does it does pretty damn well.
Thank you for including Absolute Territory and A-Spec First Assault. I'm currently working on improving controller support and UI for A-Spec for the next update, then I can start focussing on adding more content which should come out at a fairly quick pace with the main game mechanics in place.
Klingon Academy is still my gold standard for story telling and combat in a space sim! I preferred the original Independence War for the hilarious Jefferson Clay character! I still laugh hysterically at the line, "Now, if you should ever manage to ask me a question that doesn't insult my experience and intelligence, I dare say I'll force a civil answer out of myself." Not the most expansive of games but I still have a found remembrance of Microprose's Lightspeed and sequel, Hyperspeed.
Surprised to not see any of the 3000ad's Battlecruiser/Universal Combat series up here. It's the original "star citizen" scam. and borders on so bad it's good but it's still mostly bad. Still impressive to have had a seamless space to ground full spectrum space game in any capacity nevermind 24 years ago....even if it was kinda terrible I still sunk a lot of hours into it.
I have Space Engine, even though I didn't see it on the list, Freelancer was a great game to play. When I was younger I also played the demo for Independence War 2
The best StarTrek games were the 25th Anniversary TOS adventure game and TNG - A Final Unity. Both hit that sweetspot of part Bridge-/Ship gameplay and away missions on planets. Exactly what StarTrek should be about.
Space sims are my fav. My owned titles include Avorion, X2, X4, Rebel Galaxy, IW2, DarkStar One, BattleStar Galactica Deadlock (missed that one!), Freespace 2, Elite Dangeous, Elite (C64 original), Emperion. I'm sure I've missed a few. Watch LT Gaming all the time for upcoming new space sims to wishlist.
I had a lot of fun with Helium Rain. Until i reached the point where i'm supposed to program the AI ships, and that's where i lost all interest. The GUI for setting up those is just... just awful. And i mean, more counterproductive and unwieldy than X series has. So that's where i left it. Sadly, because otherwise it's nice little game.
i dont think the problem people have with chorus is that the character is female, but that its the same tired shaved head angry woman who takes orders from other similar looking "girlboss" women and men are pushed aside so every character can be a an angry tough girlboss lesbian, disney and hollywood in general has done this trope to death. When saints row reboot was announced everyone laughed the main character the devs picked was a brown androgynous girlboss with short hair, yawn. Even obsidian who had an entire roster of that archetype in the outer worlds stopped doing it in their new game avoweded.

Freelancer is all lined up for a future video! haha thanks so much :)
@@LTGamingUA-cam And Starlancer?
Genuinely a great video. Absolutely smashed it, thank you!
Surprised Freelancer was not on here, or Starfleet Academy that came before Klingon Academy.
Nexus the Jupiter incident will always have the top spot in my heart. I-war and it's sequel were gems as well. And for the ancient ones... Warhead for the Amiga and Atari ST
Spacebourne 2 is a good one as well
Was looking for this comment. ;)
IIRC, X2 uses the exact same engine as XBTF, X-TECH 1, according to Egosoft. X3 uses X-TECH 2, rebirth 3, and X4 currently uses 5.
I've tried several of these games (some of which just based on your recommendations on this channel!) And i would love to see a future video focusing on a game with carrier ship based mechanics. That's a particularly itch that very rarely gets properly scratched.
Empyrion is a good game as a base game but it really shines with the workshop scenarios - everything from simple addons to complete overhauls.
Great list. Thanks a lot. Keep the good work. Darkstar One was a blast. Upgrading the ship was so cool.
I second Darkstar One its a great game I often go back to because the ship upgrades offer good versatility to each play through.
I have Space Engineers, and children of a dead earth (i have very few hours).
I was surprised that Elite Dangerous and Stellaris (even though Stellaris is more of an RTS) were not on the list.

Excellent stuff brother! a great collection you put together!
It has been a journey!
Perfect video - just what I was looking for. It doesn't have to be new to be good! I love space games and I only have a few of these.

Nuclear. It is 2 syllables: new-clear. Also: that's a crazy long vide with a huge amount of games. Wow!
Picked up a few hidden gems thanks to your videos, keep it up!
Love me a good space sim.
Excellent collection!
Thankyou!
Darkstar one excellent game. Runs fine on modern PC. Can't fault it.
Nobody mentions Hardwar. An obscure game, with very special atmosphere, well-made, and available on Steam.
Going to check that put now thanks!
+1 good work! Space Engineers is my favorite one for years, you could also add Star valor !
Thanks! Star Valor will feature soon :)
Some beauty games !
Freespace 2 has so many amazing mods and projects, check out FS2 Open and the Blue Planet add-on, it's amazing.
OMG Dark Star One, I completely forgot about this one !
And big up for Nexus, It's still installe on my PC to this day, with the same mods I have kept for 20 years !

Great round up, my fave in all those are the egosoft games, X-BTF, X2, X3, X4, highly recommended.
Great list. Definitly worth a look. I wonder if Star Citizen ever gets finished before it lands on this list?
haha I mean that would be funny in someways. I just cant face playing atm!

Space Engineers is far from forgotten. One of my top five played games - We just had a big PVE combat DLC and SE2 is being announced
Everyone kept mentioning it so I had to include it. Forgotten is more of a mechanism with this series.
Ahh u see i love space games but i need a cockpit there man so the freespace games i cant play but would love to
Few of these are really awesome and impressive, but i rather preffer a more peaceful space game where the most gameplay is not destroying eachother's spaceships and instead focusing on gathering minerals/other space materials and finding planets to live and populate.

Empyrion is a really good game
Love it ! Great content ! keep going
p/d: still hurts me how little love there is for stationers
Id love the space opera style, with characters and relationships and a sense of being part of a great whole. A lot of space games get the sim part, or the logistics / trading... But they dont have that mass effect / wong commander sense of characters. Wheres the crew i can get to know, wheres my reason beyond just... Making money / exploring.
That's what id love to see
as a 80s kid, its truly sad that the whole genre of "spacefighter" games are basically non existent!
and before ppl start crying out, im talking about those *"you are only a pilot"* games, without management, or rescources, money, etc.....
just being a pilot is enough & alot of fun (if done right) and coming from X-Wing & freespace & co i REALLY miss these kind of games, where you are just thrown into a good story, but are basically "powerless" and just one cog in the warmachine.
Starlancer was a good one as well.
ΔV: Rings of Saturn is punishing and needlessly frustrating and confusing.
Just found house of the dying sun recently. Great game. Just very short.
I'm playing it again myself on the Legion Go! It is a tad short!
most space games are just weird and oftentimes feel nonrewarding and clinical. having said that, i liked the older wing commander and privateer series a lot.

15 of these i have
do not forget to try out wing commander!
Avorion was really great but it really dropped the ball in the endgame… the grind and those final enemies was too much.
what i need is information about recent space sims beyond E:D and SC to justify buying a new HOTAS
A new toy needs no justification
