Looks like X4 Cradle of Humanity is out now. I can't run the game on my old rig so I'm drooling over all the videos appearing online instead lol. As usual it was pretty buggy on release but it sounds like most of the issues have been fixed already.
Planet terraforming looks cool:
New launch trailer:
I've always loved the soundtracks to past X games and still hum many of the songs after all these years lol.. the new one sounds amazing:

Quoting myself here lol as they finally done it! Egosoft are creating another addon pack for X4 and are bringing back the water based Borons! I've been asking for this for years and years! Every time people would say it's impossible I'd pitch my 'stations with separate water areas and Boron encounter suits for the normal dry areas' idea and how it could work in the X4 engine. So to now see that they've actually done that and made it a reality makes me so happy, as this is pretty much what I pictured in my mind years ago. And I loved the extra touch of redoing the good old Kingdom End music too.

This is a very fun game with a considerable learning curve. I've played it for about a year and have built my fictional trading faction there (Constellation Express, We Connect The Stars!). The only downfall I have about this game is the AI. As they taught us in trucking, expect anybody to do the stupidest thing at any time. That is X4 AI. It is otherwise a very good near Freelancer management/first person space adventure game
I hope that either all of us or none of us are judged by the actions of our weakest moments. But rather, by the strength we show when, and if, we're ever given a second chance.
