  • I hear X4 without DLCs is barebones, I got them all when Steam discounted them so I wouldn’t know but I think the terran and boron DLCs are pretty important.

    Mods? probably a cheat package if you don’t truly hate yourself as long as you only use them when desperate.

    How to get into it? You need lots of patience, the game’s learning curve is very steep and other than consooming guides on youtube the only way to learn is to simply play and eventually look up information online when you get stuck - which may be a lot to ask of a game that costs 50€ excluding DLCs.

    Perhaps you can try out X3:TC to see if you like how the series works, it came out in 2008 but it costs 16€, only has one paid expansion, and Egosoft published a free DLC in 2021 that is basically an official unofficial patch to the engine.
