Terran Conflict Review
I know this series is being talked about right now in the Steam Daily Deals thread, but I don't want to clog it with questions about a single game.
Some time ago I bought the bundle that includes all the games in the series, from X-Tension to X3: Albion prelude. Never having played one before, I read the latter games include much better gameplay than the former, and that the storyline wasn't powerful enough to warrant playing them in order, so I decided to start directly with X3. Foolishly, I installed X3: Reunion, the first of the X3 series; then other shinies caught my attention until now, when I feel like playing some space trading/fighting game.
(Why foolishly? I have a limit on how many gigs I can download/upload in a month -- 70Gb between me and my wife, to be exact. Modern games take between 6 and 12 gigs to download, give or take, and that's a sizable chunk of my monthly allowance; so I have to think long and hard before downloading any of them.)
Anyway, my question is: Assuming I have enough bandwidth to download one more game before my monthly allowance is renewed, should I:
1) Start playing X3: Reunion, which I already have installed, and use that bandwidth to download other games acquired through the recent sales. Variety! Yay!
2) Forget about Reunion and download X3: Terran Conflict instead. More gameplay options! Yay!
3) Forget about Reunion and Terran Conflict and directly download the X3: Albion Prelude instead. Even more options! Huzzah!
The thing is, I don't know enough about the games, or what was improved and added between them, to make an informed decision; hence my question. Also, is the Albion prelude stand-alone, or do I need to install Terran Conflict first? Because I somehow thought it was a small add-on, but Steam apparently lets me download them separately -- and Albion is bigger than Terran Conflict by more than a Gb. This is so confusing.
Please help me! You're my only hope!
