There is none

Strike suit zero

The only space games that ever rivaled Freespace were the ones that inspired it, X-Wing and TIE Fighter.
>>
>all these shitty space games that are coming out are fighter craft only
>no capital ship sim

What even is the point. Might as well be an Ace Combat reskin

Ace Combat's gameplay is simple and dull as balls

None. Just install the Freespace SCP and re-play through it again. Or you can play some of the fan made campaigns, they can be pretty fun. A few have voice acting that isn't so fucking terrible that you want to die. Derelict is pretty solid.

Did they fix X Rebirth yet? Why did they go full autism and prevent you from commanding different ships?

There is no space combat game as cohesive or well written, but Rebel Galaxy does a good job of making capital ships fun to fly. I measure the worth of a space game by how many podcasts o get through and I've listened to all of Nerd Poker to Rebel Galaxy.

Say again, pilot, another subspace portal?

No idea what this game is but maybe check out Dreadnaught?

Not as hard as DF, but still pretty hard.

You have to navigate through a shitton of menus to get what you need. But once you get the hang of it, holy shit.
