So the new game from Double Damage, Rebel Galaxy Outlaw, is coming out this year, and it might be one of the best games of its kind in at least a decade. I've got over 20 hours in a pre-release copy, and I can't stop playing it, so please feel free to ask questions.
Also, here's a recent stream Travis Baldree, the game's creator, made the other day:

Now, to business!
Edit: It'll be on the Epic Store for a year exclusively before Steam:
This game is gonna be so awesome. Can't wait.
DD really knocked it out of the park with the original, so I'm feeling pretty optimistic with Outlaw.
Hey Veloxi, did you get a chance to try out k/m controls?
That's the direction I'm leaning if it's viable with dogfights, etc.
Conversely, how does mouse + keyboard feel?
I hope they don't give up on Rebel Galaxy. The 2 styles of game can coexist. In fact it would be awesome to combine the two at a future date. (would love to get the custom paint job tools into RG...)
Is there a more varied loop than Rebel Galaxy? I liked Rebel Galaxy but it was very one-note.
How is the soundtrack?
I still listen to songs from the first game.
Wow, didn't realize this was out already, though I'm going to wait for it on Steam. Eager to hear additional impressions.
Sorry, wasn't trying to bring that here, just laying out the time frame in which I'll get the game.
Subbing to thread. I haven't played a spaceflight sim since the days of Wing Commander, Privateer, and TIE Fighter, but I'm ever nostalgic for them.
This looks really good. I've seen enough to know I want it day one.
RG was very endearing considering it was made by like... 2 people? But I lost interest about the time you get out of the first star system. I'm very intrigued by what they can do with more experience, more resources, and more Blues Saraceno.
Liked the first. I'm probably in.
I tried to go to that Twitch link but only got a black screen. Can you recommend a good YouTube video or two, and maybe even embed them in the OP for all who come after me?
This is as close to a true sequel to Privateer as I've ever seen.
That’s an exciting sentence. I’m even more stoked that I get to play on Switch :3
Looks like they're doing a twitch livestream in an hour or so?
Is it more or less directed than Freelancer?
I see the FAQ says you can’t play as a capital ship, but do you fight any?
Watched some videos. Game looks excellent. This makes me so nostalgic for the old Origin games. Fun fact: I first used "Fedaykin" as my nickname for Wing Commander 1.
I did notice in the FAQ that this game has been announced for PC, PS4, and Switch, and is explicitly not coming to Mac and Linux. Hopefully that means it's coming to Xbox but isn't announced yet.
Of course, I've never played one of these with a console controller before. Hmm...
