Best Space Games That Let You Make Contact With Aliens
Star Conflict
Star Conflict is a massively multiplayer space simulation game where the player takes the role of an elite pilot that engages in an interplanetary skirmish. After a mysterious Cataclysm destroys an entire sector, a great civilization of Aliens was recently discovered and all of the mercenaries and adventurers of the Universe are now fighting for Alien artifacts. There are multiple races and species of creatures that can be found within the game; they are identified by their ships and can be Biomorphs, Scouts, Hunters and Predators.
Creatures from outer space have always sparked a huge interest in people and many conspiracies have been created along the years concerning their existence. Starting from the infamous Area 51 and ending with impromptu UFO sightings or tales of abductions, aliens are an important part of the modern folklore. Their appearances in video games are as elusive as the ones in real life and this is one of the reasons we decided to do our best and find 10 space games that include such special encounters with beings from other species. They can be our in-game ally or foe, or we, as players, can assume the role of such a being while trying to save our motherland. However it may be, today’s video is dedicated to our galaxy neighbors!Watch:
Endless Space 2
Still in Early Access, Endless Space 2 is a turn-based space strategy game that allows the player to take the role of a leader whose task is to guide a civilization towards making its first steps into interstellar travel. There are 8 major playable factions but for the moment only six of them have been announced: the Horatio – a people of clones, the United Empire – technologically inclined humans, the Vodyani – with energy filled suits, the Lumeris – amphibious beings, the Cravers – an insectoid life form and the Sophons – android-looking aliens. By choosing any of these races you’ll be able to confront the other seven in epic space battles.
Nexus: The Jupiter Incident
StellarisRevolving around space exploration and managing an empire, Stellaris is a 4X grand strategy video game where players control ships and make trade agreements with the other species that surround him. There are eight such species that each race can belong to: Arthropoid (insect-like), Avian (bird-like), Fungoid (fungus-like), Humanoid, Mammalian, Molluscoid (invertebrates), Reptilian, and Plantoid. Besides these, there are also spaceborne aliens that inhabit a certain area of space and are rarely seen away from it, creatures such as amoebas and crystalline entities being very common. Stellaris is appreciated for its immersive and almost RPG-like early game.
Elite: DangerousIn Elite: Dangerous the player is able to explore a 1:1 scale open world galaxy based on the real Milky Way. After a player reported a Thargoid encounter while playing the game, a full blown frenzy was started, more and more gamers begun searching for these specific aliens. While the developers haven’t yet confirmed this hypothesis, they did announce that the Thargoids would make an appearance in some capacity later in the game, maybe in an expansion pack or a DLC. Anyway, a space alien looking starfish seems to have been found by the said player and we have the footage to prove it.
FTL: Faster Than LightFaster Than Light is a top-down roguelike space ship simulator where the players control the crew of a spacecraft while being pursued by a considerable rebel fleet. The ship must be guided through eight sectors, each with its own planetary systems and procedurally generated events. The combat of FTL takes place in pausable real time gameplay. Besides humans, there are also other alien species: the mechanical Engi, the insectoid Mantis, the Rockmen, the pure energy Zoltan, the Slug, the Crystal, the metalic Lanius and the Ghost. When you gather your crew you can include a total of up to eight members from these different races.
FreelancerIn Freelancer the player assumes the role of Edison Trent, an elite pilot who must go through a series of missions to save the Sirius sector from an alien force named the Nomad. To stop them from controlling the minds of the human inhabitants and ignite a civil war, the player must join a secret organization known as the Order and help rescue the president from the aliens. 48 known star system are available for exploration and activities such as dog-fights with other players, bounty hunting and commodity trading are also available in Freelancer.
Sins of a Solar EmpireSins of a Solar Empire is a real-time strategy game where the players are given control over a spacefaring empire in the distant future and are tasked with conquering star systems. They can use military, economic and diplomatic means to reach their goals. There are three different races the players can choose from: the industrial TEC, the psychic Advent and the alien Vasari. The playable map area is a 3D web of planets and other celestial objects and the game emphasizes a sandbox approach to its gameplay. The players can choose to enter an online multiplayer campaign or play against AI opponents offline and try to make contact with the other races.
FreeSpace 2Once again, the player must assume the role of a pilot and fight against the mysterious aliens, the Shivans while defending the human race and its allies, the Vasudan aliens. At the same time, a rebellion must be quelled by any means necessary, so the stakes are high in this space combat simulation title. The action takes place in detailed star systems and nebulas, the player being able to use fighters, corvettes, destroyers and gigantic capital ships. FreeSpace 2 has been especially praised for its attention to detail when depicting the ships of the different races, the textures and clarity of the backdrops, and even the realism of the explosions.
HomeworldHomeworld follows the alien Kushan exiles of the planet Kharak after their home planet is destroyed by the Taiidan Empire. The survivors’ goal is to reclaim their ancient homeworld. To do so, in each of the game’s levels the player must collect resources, build a fleet, and use it to destroy rival ships and complete mission objectives. Homeworld’s unique gameplay and graphical design have always been praised by critics and gamers alike, becoming the highest rated computer game of 1999. It is such a beloved title that in 2015 a remastered collection of the original game together with the sequel were released to the utter delight of fans.

Trevor Martin
Counter Strike: Global Offensive YouTuber Trevor Martin (better known as TmarTn) is filthy rich. However, his fortune may not have been acquired legally. The story goes like this. Trevor Martin and his friends founded a CS:GO site where gamers could gamble on in-game items. They promoted their website by pretending they didn’t own it- they lied to their viewers to get site visits, getting more people to gamble and getting more money for themselves. TmarTn posted videos of him winning upwards of $10k on his website in gambles that he rigged himself. Through these methods, he was able to gain an estimated 10 million dollars from his illegal gambling site. He and his partners were sued last year, but he remains a rich man.

The Voice Behind Geralt of Rivia Had This Humble Profession Before Joining The Witcher
Believe it or not, Geralt is a professor. Not an Indiana Jones style, gung-ho archaeology professor, but the course leader of acting at the Arts University of Bournemouth in the UK.
![The Voice Behind Geralt Credit: Eurogamer](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_vmsUiR9sFFzgI6ooZMSJbm4UMy9qfT6zfQgL1V_BV7y-J5RdHHNl1Mjm-oHSCbP31pTh49657AsY1JvN3iE05TDnOi5NmbUoBqTCXFQAe-5A0rQDi67qMDh35TYQyGL06OMFK0FEBR24c6KCyBTQ0=s0-d)
The famous voice behind Geralt of Rivia is Doug Cockle, a part-time voice actor, part-time actor, and full time professor with a kick-ass voice. He started his acting career with a few movies and TV shows before landing an audition by chance for the original Witcher. After the Witcher was approved for a sequel, he wasn’t called back. He was a little mad, so he decided to head to the new studio to audition for the role that he had already won a few years before. No surprise, he got it. After the success of the first two, Cockle was a no brainer to play Geralt for The Witcher 3.
![CD: Projekt RED](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_v8oqicm2uFRzEaw3EoE5TlAS-aveiJKnXBeZjLpII2PCpe7Ew7A2XHlFXOSiD48-a2ZFSK35m-b_V7HSiKh2aEtvdmadLkSYMpgaHyULLD0xJDUoD68nCdlmav_KSy7uyc8RjHySANRDhtbnWU8ykRLg=s0-d)
As we all know, the Witcher 3 was a smashing success – it beat out huge games like Fallout 4 and Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain for Game of the Year 2015. However, despite how well the game did, Doug Cockle remains a professor by day and a witcher by night – hopefully we’ll get to hear more of his work sometime soon.
