One of the greatest opening scenes to a game ushers in an incredible experience of space combat. What does a war look like when a dominant species attempts total xenocide? Mysterious technology, desperate battles to gain a fraction of an advantage and a

One of the first great fleet vs fleet space dogfighting games; complete with challenging awards/medals, a detailed menu of commands for allies, a decent story, and capital ship battles. Too bad it won't run.

Best space sim ever created by far, played thousands of hours since 1998 when it came out and never gets old.

Descent: Freespace - The great War is a space sim from 1998, and while revolutionary back then, looks somewhat dated today and can be tricky to get running on modern hardware. However, it's an awesome game that was way ahead of its time, and has excellen

This version is garbage. It no longer works on modern hardware and Steam doesn't update it. So you you spent money on this you've now got an unplayable game. It's better you buy off GOG or get yourself the original CD version. On GOG they actually fix gam

Owned this back when I was growing up, would like to figure out how to get the best visual but overall I missed this game and the memories tied with them. (Only done campaign, not sure how or if the multiplayer is available at this moment)

Main campaign is bugged. The 6th mission, Paving the Way is bugged. The ship you have to escort never flies into the warp zone. It just keeps circling. Even tried this with cheats making the escort target invincible. If anyone has a fix please let me kn

Immer noch das geilste Spacegame, dass es gibt. Daher ist es auch bis heute für mich völlig unverständlich, wieso die Reihen so stiefmütterlich behandelt wurde und Volition kaum Stückzahlen verkaufen konnte. Na ja, Volition hat den Sourcecode für di

Unplayable on Windows 10/11. Have to track down every option known to the computer world to get the game to actually load, and play beyond the first tutorial. Randomly shuts down, lock up the whole system at times, forcing a hard reboot. ( i am not on a t

deze game heeft echt een vervolg nodig en zeker op deze verhaallijn ooit jaren geleden dit spel als demo gespeeld en sinds een tijdje nu ook volledig in bezit het zou geweldig zijn als hier een vervolg op gaat komen waarbij het grafisch beter is en lang

Despite my hours in steam I probably have a few hundred hours in this game. The correct first step after purchase is acquiring Knossos and FSOpen, then launch from that to use enhanced versions of the campaign that fix some bugs and improve ~everything~.
