In some ways, I like it, but in other ways, I worry. I hope they really screen station names, and I hope they set aside some systems like the collection of wonders to be locked from development.

Any system with a tourist beacon seems to be not colonizable

When they find a way to tie it to a monthly subscription.

Yeah, Elite Dangerous is an amazing spaceship flying simulator, but that's still all it is for me. Odyssey was supposed to be what transitioned it from sim to rpg, and FDev didn't really deliver on that promise. Ship interiors is the next watermark I'm waiting for before I put in the effort of reinstalling my hotas setup.

Colonizing my first system, alone, facing the grind with a smile. :-)

Can't wait to see Yamiks rant about it.

Oh man, I haven’t seen him pop up on my feed in a while. Is he still complaining, even with all of these improvements and attention on the game?

[–] iamdefinitelyoverthirteen@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's his charm. Dude's funny.

[–] surph_ninja@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, I can’t fault him for sticking to the bit. Just seems like there’s not a ton to complain about these days. Was curious what he’s griping about.

He does a lot more than elite/SC now. He's currently in love with Starsector right now, which is an amazing game and highly recommend you try.

Thanks for the rec. Looks super cool, but I play in a simpit with Elite, so more into flight sim models. Appreciate it, though.
