Yeah I’m not a big fan of the real-time strategy genre. I haven’t tried X3 myself but I have tried X2 on the c64. Like you I was roped in by the novelty of a new game for an old system (which wasn’t that common back in 2017, or 18, or whenever it came out as it is now).

I am a huge fan of adventure games though so The Aching looks pretty cool.

I’d love to listen to an episode covering this game as well. I don’t know if you could finish it in a month but even if only the first chapter was covered it’d make for an interesting episode.
I think this is probably my favorite CRPG at least outside of the JRPG genre.
For me it’s about the combat system which is really key to a good rpg. Games like Pool of Radiance each combat was so long and tedious I just couldn’t get through it. Then games like Might and Magic it felt like I wasn’t doing anything at all except clicking and watching probability do its thing.
But in Krondor it was a perfect mixture, at least for me.
