September, 2019 is a Month of Freespace 2!!!

Helllllsss Yeah

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! :)
