What kinds of games do you like, and why?

[Thomas Shey]

Any recommendations? They’d be much appreciated. I tried Starflight itself a few years back, never having played it as a child, but it has not aged well. I’ve also had a go at the first Starcom game, which I liked a lot, even if the writing wasn’t up to Star Control 2 standards. I’ve also been curious about Starsector, though you can only purchase that by sending a bank cheque to a secret PO Box in the Philippines, or something like that.

Unfortunately, since I'm not a big fan of realtime combat in general, I tend to notice, but not remember them.
