FEATURES
TRADE! A fully simulated economy that means your actions really do matter. Travel the space highways to find profit in gigantic space cities, swarming with ships and drones.
++ Every ship you see has a task. Stop a freighter from reaching its destination and its cargo will be stopped too, causing prices to rise. ++
FIGHT! From small scale skirmishes to epic fleet encounters, battles in the X Universe know no limits. Choose to fight for the military, work for the police or be a lawless pirate, or if you prefer just fight when you need to defend yourself - it's up to you.
++ Take the action right into massive structures. Target turrets and shield generators to weaken your enemy, damage engines and jump drives to prevent their ships from escaping, or stop their factories producing to cripple their economy. ++
BUILD! Create your own empire! From trading stations to large factories, farms to hightech military complexes, everything can belong to you. Build for trade and profit or to strengthen your military presence and dominate your enemies.
++ Extend and upgrade your stations to make them operate more efficiently, with every element visible in glorious animated detail. Harvest your own resources to keep your empire running smoothly. ++
THINK! A rich, detailed history and a deep complex plot await you, but you are free to decide when and where to take part. Explore the universe at your own pace - choose your own path and create your own destiny.
++ Get up-close and personal with aliens and humans alike. Land on stations, meet people, then accept missions from them or hire them as crew members for your ships. ++
TRADE, FIGHT, BUILD, THINK... in the X Universe - the biggest sandbox this side of the galaxy.

I have all X Games from Egosoft and have about 378 hours in this game. The game has some bugs and some AI issues and the economy system isn't as good as other X games, but remember the age of the game. The game has some new mechanics (only one ship ...) and has a lot of walkable areas which is very nice.
This game is now so much improved from the released disaster it was, but and its still a big but there is some way to go before it fulfills the potential of a true x game. It still needs a lot of additional mods to make the game play more enjoyable but thanks to the x modding community there are plenty to load up in the steam workshop, or with nexus if you are not on Steam.
The main campaign is still not quite there with some silly, way to hard to get resources in station construction without reverting to long grinds or stealing.
This is a very deep, complex game so expect lots of googling to find out how do stuff.
But for under £6 this must now be the deal of the year when Steam are selling it for about £30 more.
Cheap
Very deep game for x fans
Lots of potential
Steep learning curve need to google to learn stuff
Still needs lots of patch work with Campaign & gameplay
this game gets a bad rap because of how bad when it was initially released, but the developers have completely redeemed themselves, and are still actively working on this game. As I am righting this review, they are readying to update the game to 4.0. I do wish they would add a multiplayer to it, because the universe they built would be awesome with that.
