In the original SAIS, you could play it in real time with the fixed damage displays without too much trouble. Battles were slower paced, as well, in my estimation.

And once again, I must point out that these battles are interactive, not passive. You know what REALLY reminds me that "it's a game"? Seeing the Game Over screen because I got killed because some developer decided it would be "sweet" to obfuscate the status of my ships during combat.
