No. If you didn't like 2 or 3 then you won't like 4 either.

Seems obvious when you say it out loud.

Because customizing the controls is a fucking nightmare. It's also not a very fun game to play.
Everspace 2 on the other hand is fun, and I've been enjoying it a lot.

X games are weird
some ppl prefer/get into older ones some people prefer/get into newer ones
you really just have to try and see for yourself
thing is they are on GOG(meaning DRM free) so its easy to pirate, you can use sites like gog-games or freegogpcgames to get it

Game is inferior to its predecessor in almost every way and was blatantly unfinished, chopped to pieces and sold bit by bit to grab money. With all the DLC, X4 is alright, but without it, it's an atrocity. Compared to Terran Conflict and Albion Prelude both, it painted a very unfavorable picture that left a lot of people bitterly disappointed. As for Sseth, I don't think he's going to care about it because there's very little meme potential, it's a very sterile and inoffensive space autism sim.

So compared to DLC? The fuck is that comparison. X3 was also an absolute fucking disaster on launch, it was terribly buggy, slow and barely playable. And I will never forgive them for removing the cockpit views.

AP comes from the time when content expansion added more than four ships and sectors. And X3TC is standalone, you don't need Renuion for it. And if not having cockpit view means I can have a better simulated universe than has more things in it to do than blowing up endless hordes of Xenon Q's, then I'm fine with that. That is not to mention the absolute fucking atrocity of visual ship design in X4, have you seen Argon ships? They look like shit. They're repulsive to look at.

I tried playing X4. I played all of the tutorials which took about 2+ hours. Then I played the first storyline

1) The ship controls and jetpack controls in this game are bad somehow. All they had to do was copy any space game to get it right, and yet did their own scheme and it's bad. Especially the Up/Down (W/S) decision to go up down instead of Space and Ctrl.
2) The menu system is insane. It feels like an Eastern European game because there's menus inside of menus inside of menus and there's buttons with unicolored indistinct iconography everywhere.
3) The controls in general are trash. The same way that microsoft excel has shortcuts that were created in 1985, this game feels like it's carrying X1 controls from 1998. A menu system that you open with Enter? Whose buttons don't move with WASD?? Additional menus on the right side of the keyboard??? An overmenu through Esc? Freelancer figured out space controls in 2001 and WoW figured out larger world menu systems in 2004. There's no reason for this game to have a UI and UX this cluttered. Scam Citizen does MORE than X4 and has a much cleaner UI.
4) The story and voice acting is pretty bad, but that's okay. These are hard to get right.

I had an easier time getting into X4 than X3.
I was more a a DWU kind of guy than an aurora guy, I presume you have played DWU or DW2. X4 does a similar thing where it simulates a private economy for you to play with. X4's problem is that its a bit of a broken game. This gets worse the later you get and the more time you invest into it. It starts off seeming like The Best Game Ever and about six hours in you're chanting TOTAL EGOSOFT DEATH TOTAL EGOSOFT DEATH TOTAL EGOSOFT DEATH in some kind of eldritch ritual to get your ships to actually trade/dock/attack.

its got economic simulation with building up an enterprise. huge pro is that all material goods are based on demand and supply. nothing is ass pulled from thing air. Every ship needs components which have to be assembled in the factories getting inputs from lower tier raw materials stemming from raw resources

huge con is that vanilla is actually too easy. There is physically no way for the player to actually reach a fail state as there is no way to go bankrupt. there are no salaries, no taxation, no loans, no union busting or interest payments. Out of these you can only mod in salaries and then adjust to have some realistic rates. Also AI needs modding so that it starts to actually behave realistically and plugging the gaping holes in their domestic supply chains

tl/dr: as far as the economy game goes its mostly a single player power fantasy

My biggest issue with it is that advanced satellites are the most profitable goods to run and you can't send ships to auto buy them and they don't fit normal cargo space either.

I played 8.0 for a few days but was a bit disappointed. Long enough to instigate a war between PAR and the mafia faction I have forgotten the name of only to watch them both just sit fleets at eachothers' gates for hours and never actually fight.
The rest of what you can do with the diplomacy mechanic is fairly underwhelming. The big pay off is meant to be the ability to steal blueprints that you can't EMP like ship BPs but the time investment to do that is so obnoxious you're much better off just running a bunch of missions for the rep and by then you should have enough passive income to buy every blueprint from every faction anyway.
Oh and for a while you could get a whopping 40% ship purchase discount through diplomacy so you could order XLs at faction factories and then sell them back to the factory for a profit. That was fun, though I'm pretty sure it got nerfed.

Does such a thing really exist? Ordering a ship, coming back 30 minutes later and realising there is literally no radar factory anywhere on the map was a mindfuck.
