What does Yas Forums think about Elite: Dangerous?

Thanks everyone for the thread

Same boat. Been feeling rudderless lately. Might as well go to the far side of the Milky Way because FCs in their current form seem like a dud and Thargoid combat doesn't really appeal to me.

Classic. Ther's nothing the you haven't already saw. You'll drop this idea half way and strand you ship in the middle of nowhere for months only to return to mddle of nowhere when "new era" releases. Then you self destruct but was the point of going there then?

I have enough money (9.5bil) that the loss of exploration data means nothing. There are occasional things to see, biological and geological phenomenon, interesting configurations of planets, etc. Considering that only something like .008% of the galaxy has been discovered after more than 5 years of this game existing, there could always be something new out there. Spirit of the explorer and all that.

its fun in vr

>Thargoid combat doesn't really appeal to me
Fuckin this

I was pretty interested in it at the start and then found out its basically "do this with these and you win". That and the thargoid weapons are annoying, as in, you can deal with them but it just isnt fun, at least for me.

It's pretty great in VR but mediocre if you're not into space trucking and don't have VR.

But I'm into space trucking and VR. I guess I'll buy then because my expectations are so low after reading all of this that I cannot feel disappointed

This is a fair point, ED in VR is a must play. Athough at the time I had a Vive1 and the text was nigh unreadable

It's boring, even with friends.
You'll spend your time mining for the first dozen hours and you'll be disappointed once you get one of the big ships.
Most of it requires a ton of grind to even unlock if I remember correctly.
