I'm a player from the future and I jumped to the past to bring relief and hope to this great ED game community.
Maybe you're not aware, but 2021 in our times is well known as the "Dark Era" of Elite Dangerous.
But do not worry. The game in our time is currently shining... we have ship interiors with proper Armstrong Moment, explorable oceans in water worlds, planetary mining on volcanic worlds, earth like worlds full of indigenous life and old civilization ruins, cloud cities in gas giants and power play has become the gaming example for strategic simulation. Thargoids story content received a huge boost back in 2023 when FLOVE (you probably still call them FDEV) created a free handcrafted interstellar initiative that lasted 1 year in total. All gameplay loops were actively engaged and it ended in a very unexpected but compelling great finale. It was like an opera show and you know how they say... it ain't over till the fat lady sings

In 2024 when they released the ship interiors and full atmospheric planets, the community was so high that we even asked to rise the price of the expansion to show our gratitude. FLOVE of course refused, so the additional money was collected during a community initiative and spent to buy a billboard to be installed in front of Frontier HQ to say "Thank You for the Great Job!".
We even changed the "o7" salute to "FLOVE". To return the favor, FLOVE released for free the Panther Clipper, Small Seismic Charges and a new set of SRV's, each one dedicated to a specific game activity, including the long forgotten touristic missions.
VR players don't have to wait too much to finally see the famous FSS missing orbit lines bug fixed and play with a proper implementation of 1st person VR experience. Be sure to have motion controllers too, because you're gonna have a lot of fun, especially with the new interactive UI!
Communication with CM and FLOVE team is an example for gaming communities nowadays. They are so engaged with us that sometimes the moderators have to limit their messages to avoid too much information spam.
I know that time travel could adversely affect the time line and everything I said above could probably never happen anymore in your time line because of my presence here now... but I wanted to take the risk to bring some light into your lives!!!
FLOVE CMDR's!!!
