Does anyone else, besides myself, remember the game Hard Nova? It was released around 1990-91 for the PC. It was a sci/fi rpg that blended a lot of different gameplay styles, my favorite of which was the ship combat.

The reason I am asking this is that it seems I am the only one out of all my friends that seems to have played this pc gem.

I played it on the ST too.
The problem was the constant swaping of disks and the looooong loading screens. Something that shouldn't be a problem for the DOS version (if HD installed).
It is a good game RPG with elements of Starflight.

I played the DOS version of the game, load time were not an issue because of hard drive support.

But I must admit, I am jealous of you who played it on the atari ST, I have wanted one of those for a really long time.
