Is it still worth playing?

A space combat simulation in which you fly starfighters for the Rebel Alliance, in events that precede and parallel the film A New Hope. Between missions you are on the concourse of the Mon Calamari Star Cruiser Independence, choosing between a proving ground, a historical simulator and a tour of duty. The proving ground is a series of gates flown against a time limit, the simulator holds missions outside the main story, and the tour of duty advances the plot with operations that can be replayed. Flying is in first person from inside the cockpit, in the A-wing, X-wing or Y-wing. On board, a technical room shows the ships and a film room replays recorded flights. Flying a fighter from the cockpit, through the war around the film, is still a way to take part in the story today.
