Over the course of the history of Elite: Dangerous, there have been two expressions which you single-handedly turned into memes. The first was, as you mentioned, “PERSONAL NARRATIVE” and the second was, “Armstrong Moment”. Both of which still make me laugh to this day whenever I hear them.

I would argue that the PP2 update actually gives you a proper personal narrative.... each Thursday, you get a list of things to do for your power and you have the whole week to complete them... it is way more guided now and that is a great thing... I see them as "quests" in an RPG.... and you will be rewarded with both money and materials (for engineering) + merits within the power.

I have to point out that players returning to the game for an update like PP 2.0 doesnt mean more money for FDev - unless they bought Odyssey (which itself has been on sale on Steam several times for less than what a paint job costs...). A feature overhaul like that requires income. Elite doesnt have tons of new players flocking in with every update, so thats not enough to cover it. 2024 has shown that they seem fairly committed to keep providing more for the game, and in fact they delivered more this year than in the last 5 years COMBINED. If thats the result of this "Pay 2 Win", then thats a price Im willing to pay - even if I think the prices they charge are a bit too high for whats reasonable.

Frontier preys on new players with the prebuild ships for ARX. A returning player has already many engieers unlocked and plenty of credits and knows all the tricks to grind materials fast. Personally i don't dislike that Frontier is selling starter packs, but they should bundle it with the game. Beside all the stupid game design choices of Odyssey, Frontiers way of selling the game is just crazy. Starting with making Elite Dangerous on console X-Box eclusvie for more than one year, wasting the marketing hype created by the PC launch and have to add the Horizion DLC for free to the PS4 version... Not adding new ships to Odyssey was stupid, especially because many players buyed the Horizion DLC for the new ships.

Say what you will about elite, but the galaxy map and overall feeling of "hugeness" is an amazing achievement. I stopped actively playing few years ago, but i still sometimes long for getting lost again in the sheer cosmic scale of the actual fucking 1:1 scale galaxy. People say that exploration is boring, but the feeling of being actually alone, with thousands of ly and only sterile dead planets (with very few exceptions) separating you and any other player, is an actually insane feeling not replicated by any other experience short of getting stranded in the middle of an actual desert or ocean. Flying across these distances takes TIME, with no shortcuts/warp gates/fast travel that make travel easy and virtually shrink the whole galaxy. It took you a week to get there, it'll take you another to get back. No shortcuts. No man's sky should in theory be similar, even more huge, but it's not. You can't zoom out the map and see the sheer size, every planet is filled with life and alien spaceships flying around so you never feel alone and fast travel being available almost everywhere makes the game seem much smaller. No man sky's galaxy is the polar opposite of Elite's galaxy and it feels much less special and impressive.

It wouldn't be boring, it's just hard to do and would have been more work. If you're gonna take content updates PC exclusive, you gotta do PC things with it.

Man, I remember the first time I loaded up this game in 2017, I was absolutely astounded. There truly was nothing like it, and I sunk so many hours getting triple elite. I remember fizzling out a bit, just due to playing my fair chunk and not wanting to engage with engineering outside of FSDs, and then Odyssey was teased. "My God, this is going to be incredible", I thought. And with the release of Odyssey, was the end of my regular playing. I sometimes reinstall ED with the desire to maybe do some bounty hunting, some on foot missions, maybe some exploration, but the horrid launch of Odyssey combined with even more grind being introduced really killed the immense desire to play I once had. I still keep my eye on updates, and who knows, maybe this next big one with colonization will be the thing to bring me back, but at this point, I doubt it. FeelsBadMan.

One thing I would have mentioned about Elite is the fact that it was, and arguably still is, THE best implementation of VR in any space game to date, the UI was just perfect, being able to just look at screens to enable them, or to target vessels was pure genius. It was the primary reason why I got Elite in the first place, to go along with my new (at the time) HTC Vive headset. It's just a tragedy how far the game has now fallen, with the utterly disappointing space legs, and the abandonment of console and base/Horizons players. The new ships may have reinvigorated my interest in the game, and enticed me to don my Pimax headset and expand on my already comprehensive fleet of vessels, but these are being denied to us Horizons players UNLESS WE PAY REAL MONEY TO UNLOCK THEM!! "Ah but you can use Arx to obtain them" I hear some pre-pubescent fanboy screaming in the replies, really, when you can only earn 400 Arx per week by playing the game intensively and need ~16,000 for the base vessels (that's 40 weeks!!), yeah, that's never going to be achievable for the majority of casual players. The only update that has been of any value so far has been the increased availability of engineering materials, and that's about it.

While I agree, but it's like 14-15 euros for a new ship, it's not ideal, but acceptable IMO especially if you compare that to 40 weeks grind for the in game ARX. For me buying ARX is the only way to support the game as I already have the Lifetime Expansion Pass (well, not the best deal so war with only 2 expansions, but oh well I wanted Elite to live up to it's potential :) ).

@@hagenisse I play(ed) the game for it's VR content, that's the aspect that appealed to me the most and what kept me coming back, I have zero interest in a substandard attempt at a first person shooter that would only appear in my headset as a flat image. Over the years I have spent a considerable amount on cosmetics for my ships, but when they switched over to the pseudo-currency of Arx, I stopped, because at that point there was no way to know how much paint jobs and ship kits really cost, because one Arx has no fixed value, it changes depending on how you earnt them or how much you bought them for. This is (to me) a deceptive business practice and not one that I wanted anything to do with, and I am certain that I am not alone in feeling that way. Elite is now in it's end years, the game is winding down, and the player base is dwindling, so what did Frontier do to widen its appeal? It abandoned consoles completely, and then went on to alienate Horizons players for not digging in to their pockets for a DLC that they didn't want. For a lot of players, the only enticement to keep playing that exists is the prospect of owning new ships to fly around, but it would appear that the devs really couldn't care less about that and would rather keep on trying to turn Elite in to Star Citizen.

I get the feeling that the "Rich Gameplay" That Braben mentioned regarding walking inside our ships was not implemented due to the Cobra Engine's limitations. Having a local physics grid is not an easy feature to implement and took Star Citizen many years to do so properly. If you don't know what I'm talking about, I'm referring to the ability to walk around inside a moving ship. This is why in the Fleet Carriers the player is forced to sit down before it jumps. Can you imagine how janky it would be if the player and crew were forced to sit every time they had to move their ship even slightly? My only glimmer hope for walking around ship interiors these days is due to the fact that all the new ships introduced this year seem to be scaled properly and have ramps that don't look like you'd have to scale up using a rope due to their steep angle.

Easy enough in theory.. add the ship's vector to your player actor's vector and you're there.. In reality there's a round trip to the server and in that time you've teleported outside the ship.. especially if you're trying to walk round a ship controlled by a 3rd party..
@mariotomazzoni6523
@mariotomazzoni6523 27 күн бұрын
And that's the gameplay benefit of players moving inside the ship while the ship is moving? And if there is a benefit, why not make the interior of the ship a own instance with it's own local physic grid? The main limitation for ship interiors is money. Costs for developing a ship will drastically rise if an interior is added and needs to be tested so players don't get stuck or fall into walls or get killed by the ships interior mesh. Interior gameplay can also be done with the ship part of the local mesh, like exploring the inside of a crashed/stranded ship on a planetary surface. And even in that case the inside of the ship could be it's own instance. The minimum for interior would have been a working airlock to hide the spawn of the players on foot avatar like Frontier did it with the hangar bay lift to hide the ship spawns. That Frontier wasn't even willing to spend that money and just choose to beam the avatar inside the blue circle shows that they never planned to add on foot gameplay by the time Elite Dangerous was launched (and Horizions was already in the works during that time).

Great Vid! Thank you! I stoped playing in 2022. When i heared the music the first seconds of your video, it immediately reminds me back. Elite is great graphic, great sound, atmosphere and ships..but often questionable gameplay, and development, from people not playing their own game and terrible ingame events. I had a good time most of my playtime. With help and tipps from the KZbin Content Creators like Plater, Yamiks, Obsidian Ant, Mini or Down to earth, Astronomy. Elite Dangerous is like an ex girlfriend, who broke with you. You hate her now, but thinking also of good times, makes you smile and sad a little. Maybe someday i will start a new adventure...

The dream is just at the edge of realization. We just can't quite bring the two together. Elite Dangerous gave us; The working game engine and immense gameworld and interesting gameplay possibilities, a good flight model and the absolutely best audio you will ever experience in a game. Star Citizen gave us; The immersive and dynamic details. ED - a mile wide, inch deep SC - mile deep, inch wide and you'll probably fall through the floor anyways

Thanks ! After almost a decade playing ED, I stopped abruptly two years ago, and don't miss it so far ... waiting for Frontier to add some relevant content (that is not CQC, PowerPlay or a crappy FPS mode :)). And don't get me wrong, I would be happy to pay for that, I'm not expecting free contents, just an actual involvement of the editor in the lore of their game. I've been more than active in the various community events, but hauling goods again and again is not what I espected from this experience, if I want to be a trucker, I can also play ETS2 in VR ...

The launch of 2014 until the Engineers patch was when Elite was at its peak, that's when I had the most fun with the game, spend hours posting in the subreddit and even had a lot of fun hanging around streamers on Twitch who were playing the game. Back then the gameplay was tight and balanced, PvP was actually strategic, you *knew* what a ship was capable off immediately, and didn't have to worry about bullshit engineering, a pulse laser was a pulse laser, a cannon was a cannon. Even Powerplay was enjoyable for a few months, especially the rewards you got from it like the railgun from Lavingy. I remember being so immersed in the game that I would often have dreams about exploration, and the future of the game, it was full of promise, and wonder. I even spend over £150 on the lifetime pass when it was available shortly after launch! Now it's just not the same anymore, and I'm not even sure if I'll ever come back to it.

The other channels don't let all the voices speak. They prefer high fives all around. I prefer complete thoughts and full conversations in all directions. I'm happy that you had a chance to explore Elite Dangerous in all its iterations. There has been good and bad. Elite has the potential to climb all the way to the top if they take the time to walk around it in all angles and areas for development. It would benefit greatly by taking those visuals and sounds that make Elite what it is and pair it with the rest of the story and mechanics it needs. Not all needs to be newly created as it is there in some aspects, but logistically Stellar Forge can only do so much with what it has. Cartographics has enough data already for expansion years ago so I'm not sure what they are trying to do with this game, what ultimately is the goal for it, but it can already do so much more with what it already has with a little bit of work. I hope they figure that out or get an offline mode so we can mod it to do it. Always a pleasure to watch you work your content Yamiks. Have fun as usual and enjoy the rest of this year. Next year is already fast approaching with a bunch of prospects to explore galactically.

You're not a prick, just a passionate gamer that expresses unique vocalization mechanics. A key point that makes for exciting conversations. Good or bad, its always Yamiks blend of business professional and bedroom banter when addressing topics pros and cons that you know isn't one sided when looked at. They can't just have positives as that never improves a space. Negatives only with no logical solutions isn't good either. There is always room for improvements and its those improvements that make awesome games of legend. I know the difference between a problem and a solution. If I was on the development team, I know for a fact Yamiks voice would have relevance in that space. Even monopoly the board game can be cutthroat and table tossing. Even silent games like competitive chess can have eyebrows furl. In Elite we have griefers outside of starter location, and developers not using the full range of their space they took so much time to realize and not use fully. 10 years is 10 years. I've been in Elite for 40 so... ya. It has had some time in the rebuy screen. 400 billion stars not using 400 billion stars when they have the mechanics to make things happen with Stellar Forge. But they chain her up, permit lock, and keep on saying its so great to each other while they walk past "hey I have a fix ticket can you address this" or "this isn't as great as it could be can you do this". Over time those polite conversations change to more direct ones like "this sucks" or "what the H... is wrong with them". I mean its progressive. Day one to day 3,650 is a big time duration. If they didn't that is on them. Not for lack of our attempt to assist in development over the years. Some things they listened too but did they really. I go back to those development and beater modes, the community saying, asking, pleading, and what grains of salt happened. Space legs are like little infant steps after a point the you just want to pick them up, put them in the stroller and ride that thing down the hill at full speed like a shopping cart scooting across the parking lot on one leg scooter. But we are still here. We just won't let Elite die. Refuse.

I bought Elite, way back in the day, before Horizons and put it down for Star Citizen, because SC had faster flight and cooler ships. Years later, now, Star Citizen is still a mess and they've removed the one thing I enjoyed that kept me coming back; fast and nimble flight. So, recently, I've started playing Elite: Dangerous. A lot. As a Star Refugee, I didn't mind shelling out $15 for a Base Model Mandalay. I've paid more for worse. But, I didn't want to fly the Sidewinder, my Eagle had no jump range and I didn't want to save up for a decent ship to make decent sized jumps because that's not the kind of ship I want to play, for the most part. So, I did enjoy just being able to buy it, just so I could travel to the places that I couldn't get to before. If they had released them in game, for credits, at the same time as in the Arx store, I wouldn't have any problems with buying ships. But, that's not how they did it, which kinda sucks. Also, I have to say that I'm fine with abandoning consoles. Consoles can't keep up. They're outdated upon release. Let's not slow down the cars because it makes the horses feel bad. I want a game that simply cannot be played on consoles because of the sheer complexity. However, that would assume that it's the complexity keeping it off of consoles and not the piss-poor optimization. Which is a generous, and inaccurate assumption, on my part.

Griefers are the reason why I almost only play in solo made. My first long range trip out to Betelgeuse, which took me like a week of just exploring and scanning, was nearly completely borked by two assholes swooping in after I got all the way back to SOL. Thankfully id sold almost all my scanning stuff just outside of the bubble. I still lost hours of work but it wasn't a week of work.

The newtonian physics of Frontier Elite 2 was my favorite part of that game. I realize not everyone would want that though.
