I really regret not shouting out my love of these games louder before Volition was cruelly shuttered. FreeSpace 1 and 2 are tense spacefighter Ace Combat, with atmospheric music, harrowing atmosphere, great gameplay, and yes- some pretty darn fun ship designs too. In honor and sadness at the end of Volition, the developers of the series (and several other remarkable series besides), I wanted to talk a bit about these designs with Dylan.
I hope this episode can tempt you to check out these very excellent games, available on GOG and Steam, and enhanced even further with the FreeSpace Open project and the Knossos launcher.
It's not the Gundam Wiki, but the FreeSpace Wiki is plenty thorough enough for our purposes. Check out the list of FreeSpace 1 ships here, and FreeSpace 2 ships here.
If you want to find us on Twitter, Dylan is @lowpolyrobot and Six is @sixdettmar. Our opening theme is the Hangar Theme from Gundam Breaker 3, and our ending theme for this episode is Battle 2 by Dan Wentz from FreeSpace: The Great War. Our podcast art is a fantastic piece of work from Twitter artist @fenfelt. Want to see a list of every unit we've covered from every episode, including variants and tangents? It's right here.
