I don't want my money back. Thanks.

The NES version would beg to differ
"We all have the same goal and we will get there, together"
Thank you for the update, David. But could you please share with us what your goal is exactly? Is it still the same as the vision you had during the kickstarter? I would genuinely like to know, because yours and the player bases goals might have deviated years ago.

Do we really need to discuss all the bugs and lack of content plaguing NMS for years?
Apart from that, didn't the base game and Horizon turn into something good as well?
I got both on PC as Xbox and enjoy the hell out of them on both platforms.
I can agree with you upon that the way Odyssey has been launched shouldn't be the standard but unfortunately that is how a lot of software is pushed out these days.
And to be honest, I too would delay it for consoles since releasing something that brings them sub 10 fps would be much worse.
Quoting Braben himself:
… sounds like expectations have fallen short. He wouldn’t state this unless it were simply the truth.
Awesome. For additional content I hope:
- Thargoid FPS stuff
- Critters at exo-biology sites
- Additional biomes
- New SRV and ship
- story-driven missions (could be DLC)
- additional areas and interaction for the concourse
- VR support
Imo there's little point to release a downgraded Odyssey on last-gen consoles. Make it current-gen console only.

Chalk me up to someone with over 2K hours in ED, and Odyssey soured me so much to the game I have not logged in weeks. Minimal new content, minimal effort, and abysmall performance on a relatively powerful CPU, followed by tiny fixes, and a obviously very different vision on where the game is going. If I could refund it, I would just out of sheer disappointment. I've sold off my FC, mothballed my ships, and maybe in a few years time the itch will rear it's head and the game will be playable at least. But until then, this message from David just reads like PR control and little else.

Here we go again.
It baffles me that anyone here actually believes a single thing this CEO says. They already have your money. The only reason that they can't launch on consoles is due to them cracking down on games being released in a broken, or in this case, unfinished state because of Cyberpunk 2077.

and we know where the mac cmdrs ended up...
He isn't really saying much or making any promises. All he is really saying is the game isn't fixed yet and console launch is gonna be delayed. In a polite way.
Whats not to believe?
pg1 - I wanna talk about the steps going forward.
pg2 - There is frustration, the community has spoken, we listened.
pg3 - Fixing all the issues with PC launch, we aren't done, and we are behind on consol launch....
pg4 - We are going to fix PC before consoles. So consoles gonna be delayed.
pg5 - Repeat: gonna fix PC before moving on to consoles.
pg6 - "So what does this mean?"
pg7 - More bug fixes and updates are coming for PC...
pg8 - And continue reporting with updates.
pg9 - We are working hard, remain calm...
pg10- Please bear with us.

I'm at the point where I don't even want information from Frontier because I automatically think it's a lie (intentionally or otherwise).
For my own sake I just expect to be disappointed when it does come to console, if ever. I'm not sure my faith in the company can be repaired. I still love ED but I can't get enthusiastic about playing anymore, being left indefinitely in limbo as the future of the game carries on without us.

I feel much the same. As someone who loves exploration, I was extremely upset at their extremely lackluster approach to on-foot exploration.
I feel like you guys put all your eggs in one basket. In the last year there has only been fleet carriers added to console pretty much. The core gameplay, which is flying spaceships, could have updates outside of odyssey. Like conflict zones, bounty hunting, assassination missions in more interesting environments. Say around damaged space stations, or science stations, or megaships, or planetside dogfighting. Now that would be something.
Its nothing more than to placate players into thinking they actually care. If they did care this expansion would've never been released and still being developed.

This is why Rockstar doesn't announce its updates until they're pretty much ready. I've yet to see them release anything poorly received
Edit: after a quick Google search it seems there has been, but I've never experienced any of what is being stated about it so, as I've also seen on here regarding varying cmdrs' Odyssey experiences, I guess results will vary

You do realize that this is not the first delay for odyssey. We were hyped at the end of LAST year for its release of JANUARY of THIS year....only to be told it would be later this fall. I get it about getting it right first but that is not what has me dejected....it's the constant putting a carrot in our faces and jerking it away. I've been playing since its release on PS4. They've been talking about planetary tech for ice worlds for years now...nothing....carriers took years to get....and not like they promised. It's just a constant struggle to believe these guys. You probably think Braben wrote that post don't ya? Hell no he didnt. He's been a ghost for years now....with the occasional sighting in the curtains of a dark back room. Also, it is the same mumbo jumbo word salad as before..... "We're going to fix it, be patient". Well no more from me. I'm happy you're happy. But don't blame console players disappointment for being jerked around. We are victims just as much as the PC players of this behavior as anyone....I'm just one who ain't gonna put up with it anymore. Glad you guys are getting what you want though...enjoy.
So does this mean VR Support, Ship Interiors and EVA gameplay will be in development?
With all things said and done, I will take everything with a pinch of salt unless I see it happening. So for me, not playing the game still until developments are done.

We're gonna miss you Konan.
I hope you come back when they release the final and stable version in consoles.
Cheers.
