Hey friends, how are ya? I’m chiming in because, if y’all aren’t aware, 9/30/19 is Freespace 2’s twentieth birthday, and I am dedicating the entire month of September in celebration! Besides finishing up my Descent: Freespace campaign (which I will, I promise), I’m going to have a video EVERY DAY of a mod or total conversion of Freespace 2 showing off what the game and the wonderful folks at the Freespace Open Project/Hard Light Productions are capable of.
I’ll be using the Knossos launcher to make all this happen, and after going through the mods, I chose the ones I found most interesting. This will include:
- The Aftermath
- The Best of FS1 Collection
- Between the Ashes
- Beyond the Red Line
- Blue Planet Complete
- Boomerang
- Burning Heaven
- Derelict
- The Deuterium Connection
- Diaspora
- Dimensional Eclipse
- Fall of Epsilon Pegasi
- Freespace 3: The Search for Bosch
- Frontlines 2334
- Homesick
- Inferno: Nostos
- Into the Halls of Valhalla
- Just Another Day
- The Last Stand
- The Lightning Marshal
- Mantle
- Pandora’s Box
- Renegade Resurgence
- Ridiculous
- The Scroll of Atankharzim
- Solaris
- Trimurti
- Uncharted Territory
- Vassago’s Dirge
- Wings of Dawn
This will all culminate with an all-day stream of me playing through the entire Freespace 2 campaign on Monday, 9/30/19. I can’t wait to show off what these talented modders, artists and writers are capable of with all these mods, and to celebrate what I feel is still the finest mix of story and gameplay ever made.
I hope you’ll join me for this celebration of Freespace 2. Thanks for reading, and I’ll see you in September! :)
Great! FS2 remains one of the best space sims for me as well, so… will have enough to check on my tablet again!
