I've owned X3: Terran Conflict for months...maybe close to a year and never played it, but after hearing about the latest expansion I've decided to give it a try. Played a bit (4 hours) and have done 1 plot mission, explored only a hand full of sectors, done some very minor trading and a few side missions and I'm made minuscule progress. But it is a beautiful game and despite how slow it is to get going and the learning curve I am enjoying it.
