State of the Game

The FPS are poor and it seems full of bugs. Especially with NPCs.
The biggest difference is in how they approached both games. SC is highly detailed, with limited content. ED is the opposite. Essentially, SC went quality over quantity, ED went the opposite way.
SC have few stations and cities, but they are massive and all unique, with completely different look related to their functions. You even have a unique metro/tram/future stuff to use in the cities on the ground. ED have the same 4 tiny concourses and stations plastered all over the galaxy.
SC have only a single star system (and they plan to have about a hundred in the end ?), but planets have atmo, you have a gas giant atmo to fly into, weather, caves, detailed biomes, developped flora (imagine having grass on the ground everywhere it makes sense and not by cluster), atmo have an impact on all ship depending of their shapes (imagine having useful wings). They also have cities (big ones) you can fly over or land into. ED have 400billions star system that mostly look the same with the same grass growing at random spot on most planet.
Blackmaze made a nice series about the "good thing" he saw as an ED player. Despite being biased toward SC, it was very entertaining.
Both games have something different to offer. OFC, in there, people will bash SC for all its flaws, while I'm sure on the various SC forums they'll bash ED for all its flaws.
See what you've done Rat we're getting off topic with the boring SC v Elite discussions.
They are the same cats as are in my compost bin, and having just added some stuff to it there seems to have been a population explosion. Maybe I should sell the excess as crepes.
It's Ok, I've uninstalled it...
I'll leave @Erei to praise it... He does have a unique skill in polishing excrement when it suits his polemic.
Just be thankful we've not seen another diatribe on repeating planetary textures.
That's a cute kitty. Fan of belly rubs?
Hmm - He'll let you, but I wouldn't advise it - unless you like bleeding arms
He does like a tickle on the head and his cheeks (facial !) though
The thing that amused me most of this, albeit very brief, tryout, is that the fans of the alpha decry spending $40 / £30 / €40 for the Odyssey expansion (which is an expansion, remember!) but will pledge $60 / £47 / €60 for an alpha with 'pretty stuff'
The thing that amused me most of this, albeit very brief, tryout, is that the fans of the alpha decry spending $40 / £30 / 40 Euro for the Odyssey expansion (which is an expansion, remember!) but will pledge $60 / £47 / 60 Euro for an alpha with 'pretty stuff'
I've seen some of them argue that dropping money in Croberts grubby mitts is an investment in the future of the game as a whole. Meanwhile Braben is pilloried as the second coming of Peter Molyneux because he had the audacity to charge 40 quid for an expansion six years after the last expansion was released. No question the launch was awful but a lot of the whining pre-dates even the alpha.

My current kitty is one of the few cats I've had over the years that loves a good belly rub. On the odd occasion she firmly objects to it but for the most part she can't get enough of it.
It is odd that there are (to me) a lot of people bothering to visit, and replay, the livestream part of my youtube channel: I'm a nobody just playing (exploring in this instance) without any editing, commentary or other suggestions things are 'good'...
Those with wings might not be too bad though
The breading job on that chicken looks awful.
That's why it's so difficult to take some of the comments seriously. Look at how it was review bombed on Steam within the first few hours of going on sale. People couldn't possibly have had enough experience to review it but they just couldn't wait to stick the knife in. It just devalues their opinion as far as I'm concerned. Not that I cared for it in the first place.
One of the joys of cooking it yourself and not having it steam in the bucket and go all mushy.
Plus, we all know the best is
Fried so crisp its illegal!
But that is somewhat steam's fault - if steam has been open while playing and you end playing having played just for a couple of hours - steam might address you personally with a pop up like "you played ... now for a while, what do you think about it?" where you can immediately write a review. Eventually this is just done with too less reviews yet.
