I love the hell out of all of the Decent games, have them all plus 
Mercinary and Vertigo. But what is this Freespace game that everyone talks 
about? I really like Descent single player, trying to figure stuff out and 
having great combat with multiple bots when I am stoked with weapons, ammo, 
energy, and shiellds. Multiplayer is not that much fun for me, takes too 
long to find a good server and get into a good game. Then the game might 
suck, you have spawn point campers, tiny boring levels, etc. So what is 
this Freespace all about? Is it like regular Descent, is it inside or in 
space? Single or Multiplayer, and most of all, is it fun?

Yeah I could look all this up but I would rather have real players 
comments, that is the best way to find out what the deal is.
