Looking for a spaceship/sci fi game to play. Any thoughts? (kbin.social)

I’m a massive sci fi fan and played the ever loving shit out of Star Citizen for a while there. Loved the 6 degrees of freedom and the capability to be a person or a starship.

I know Starfield is coming in September and I’m excited for what is has to offer but in the interim does anybody have a sci fi/star fighter game they can recommend? I kickstarted Everspace 2 so I can give that a go and I’m almost done with the current No Man’s Sky expedition

If you're into classic 6DoF games, then the Descent series (including Freespace) and Forsaken are go-to plays for me. We're talking late 90's/early 00's, though, so take that with a grain of salt.

Forsaken is a name that drags up old memories. I bought that game on the N64 from a flea market stall when I was probably 12 years old. I hear there's a better version released for PC though I never owned it.

I only ever played the PC version and it took until much later in life to hear it came out on N64. I couldn't go to that version, it just didn't play as nicely.
