Really fun space economy sim. About 75 hours in and I still haven't reached mid-game, so there's plenty of content to discover. Voice acting is god awful, and is legitimately difficult to tell whether their AI (yuck) voices are bugging or the VAs are just that bad at basic English. Graphics look great, enough to make my system overheat even on medium settings (probably just me). Also recommend the first 4 DLCs, but DO NOT GET TIMELINES. It might be be the worst part of the entire franchise for me. The ship packs are also pretty good, but overall lackluster for the price.
게임 자체는 그럭저럭 괜찮은데 시스템은 뒤지게 불친절하고 스토리는 존나 뜬금없음 ai 경제 같은거나 전투는 잘 만들어놓고 나머지는 그냥 보여주기식 갖다 붙이기 해놓은 느낌임
A quarter century of developing the X-Series lead to this marble. I can woholeheartedly recommend this space sim!
好玩
X4: Foundations — это не просто «космический симулятор», а настоящая песочница с живой экономикой и огромным пространством для самовыражения. Здесь можно быть кем угодно: скромным курьером, который возит грузы между станциями, хитрым торговцем, выстраивающим цепочки поставок, или командиром флота, который ведёт масштабные войны. Особенно впечатляет, как проработана экономика: цены на товары реально зависят от спроса и предложения, а если ты начинаешь массово скупать или продавать что-то, рынок реагирует. Это добавляет геймплею глубины и заставляет думать стратегически.
Moin, seit XBTF sind die Abenteuer im X - Universum unvergleichlich und mit jedem neuen Update wird es besser..

我的鱼雷呢?我的重型鱼雷哪去了?
this series has come a long way since x3, and although I'm playing x4:foundations years after it's been released(in 9.0), it's the first time I'm playing and it feels like egosoft finally have it all together. I've never been this sucked into an X series game like this one, and the lack of "typical" egosoft clunkyness is just...not present at all for me. Absolutely play this game if you're into space empire sandboxes.
