Then using the money from that to build yourself your own space station to produce products. Then using the money from that freighter to build or buy more freighters. Then crewing that freighter with a trade staff that will automatically make money for you. There is nothing stopping you from getting enough money to build a freighter. But in reality, it's more like an space empire/corporation building game that plays with you in the cockpit or on the bridge of a ship, instead of in some sort of nebulous meeting room that you never see.
The X series presents itself as a space shooter/trade sim at first glance, in the vein of the many games that have you pilot small ships while flitting around the larger, nastier, capital ships. Half of which is required reading to get to the point where you do the more interesting things easily. It's the sort of game that looks at conventional games with their tiny manuals filled with a select number of features, chortles belligerently at you, then smacks you in the face with a dictionary sized game manual. However, that's just the tip of the iceberg. Much like Elite and other space sims, the galaxy in question is filled with NPC's that actually do stuff like raid convoys, trade, and other space sim sort of stuff. You (typically) start out playing the role of a fighter or freighter pilot in a large, intelligent galaxy. The X series are an "Elite" type of game taken to an insane extreme.
What is Albion Prelude? In fact, what is this X3 thing I see in the title?Īlbion Prelude is an expansion pack to Terran Conflict, which itself is a stand-alone game that was built off of X3.
