Yeah a sense of taste (lol ahahaha j/k)

Well Freespace 2 is much more compelling and manages to actually get an emotional reaction out of the player, I found myself more then once playing freespace 2 wanting to scream at the Damn shivans who blew my squadron out of the stars.

That and a lot of the missions in FS2 evoke a feeling of desperation (in a good way) where your sitting there going "Damn hold on one more minute just one more minute" while flak is exploding all around you and a major space battle is going on all around.

It's just a very visceral and excellently told story within the game.

Freespace had a strong story, compelling and movie quality about it. It made you feel like part of something. A cross between BSG/SW/Wing Commander/ and a real pilot all rolled up into one. It allowed for dynamic ship control, 360 3d space combat, and control over a squadran to you could send on missisions. I used mine to take on enemy ships hangers and I would go after the bombers to protect my ship.

It was just a load of kick *** fun to play.
