So just saw the trailer for Elite Dangerous: Odyssey and it’s looks like after years of asking, FDev has finally pulled the trigger on giving ED players legs. THIS IS A GOOD THING FOR BOTH GAMES Elite Dangerous is a good game and has a good community. It’s not my personal cup of tea but people like it and more space games can only be good as a rising tide lifts all Polaris and whatnot. I’m excited to see what and how this turns out. Let me be clear: THIS IS NOT GOING TO KILL STAR CITIZEN The VAST majority of backers know this but there will still be a vocal subset that will be sure that CIG is losing whatever race they think CIG is in and how this proves whatever tenuous argument they have on why CIG should have done ABC/XYZ thing differently. Those folks are gonna have to probably take a breath These are STILL two completely different games. I’m not sure how Elite Is going to handle animations, metrics, component interaction, etc. This statement is NOT to take a swing at FDev but Elite Dangerous is still a game that has expansive scope but theres still not a whole lot to do within it (as of right now). Will ships be fully interactive? What about outposts and cities. Will there be NPCs (with or without ”t-posing” :wink: ) ? Again, adding legs to Elite Dangerous doesnt solve one of their fundamental problems: Lack of engaging content. What this will do, is make CIG understand (I’m sure they’ve known this for a while as they are more plugged into the industry than most of us are) that competition is getting better every day. This is a good thing. Lack of competition breeds complacency and CIG could use a little “breath on the back of their neck” to tighten up some areas they have gotten a little loose about. NOT sure when this is coming out but I’m happy for Elite Dangerous fans but SC fans.....get ready for the ”Extinction Level Event“ memes and articles. By the way.....whatever happened to that dude? Shrug.
