Thanks for sharing this, mildly surprised I hadn’t heard of it! I’m glad that someone has picked up the Starsiege/Tribes intellectual property, whatever form it’s taking.
There’s Midair 2 Community Edition, or something like that, which you can find on Steam. Join their Discord channel and you can probably get a playtest key. It looks like it’s just going to be little more than the LT mod with cosmetic micro transactions though, which are the opposite of anything I liked about Tribes… But jet packs and skiing are there, so I’ll play it at least a little.
Starsiege: Tribes (and Tribes 2)
Knights of the Old Republic (why not more mentions of this?!)
And Valheim or Minecraft. Both have offered countless hours of entertainment in the company of friends and family.
