I loved Squadrons. It’s the closest thing you can get to playing out the best bits of Star Wars, and the actual flight weaves in little bits of involved sim-like goodness without bogging you down to much. The last time I played, they’d even recently added a B-wing. A B-wing! That’s not exactly a deep lore cut, but you could probably feel a little bit smug about knowing what one is to someone who only knows X-Wings. And what is pop sci-fi fandom if not 5% enjoying the media and 95% being insufferable about minor details? Details and accuracy are the most important things in the universe, as John Dune recorded to project from that Dalek.
