Has anyone else here played the EGOSOFT game X3: Reunion? I'm not sure how similar it is to its predecessors, but it's got a pretty impressive in-game economy, and the unvierse is massive. I picked up a copy of the game back in fall semester, and I just started playing it again. I was thinking it would be pretty cool to create a similar game based in the Star Trek universe. That would be an interesting project to work on after ST:Supremacy is finally finished (assuming I haven't sworn off game programming forever). I think it'd be pretty cool free-lancing yourself across the Federation and the other empires, collecting bounties for shooting up the Maquis, and just exploring the galaxy. It could even take place during a familiar story arc like the Dominion War. I think it'd be really interesting to witness those developments as a civilian. Anyone else think that would be cool? I'd love to see someone take this on as a project. You could count on my support in a year or two.
