Nice, sequence of events is good.

Northpin · Nov 3, 2020

Nice cinematics. Thanks.
And a nice event indeed. Kudos to FD to putting such an effort into it

Ozric · Nov 3, 2020

Very nice. You had similar ideas to what I did in the one I made. Though your camera work is much better

Might just be a personal thing, but I think the only suggestion I would make would be to lower the music track down just a bit. It's sometimes hard to make out the audio logs.

Thanks for watching, glad you liked it. I couldn’t resist pumping up the music, it’s so good.

That was... amazing, actually. J, I can't give you enough rep. Thank you for demonstrating what this game can be.

That's quite fantastic, truly.

IMO, this kind of stuff is where ED truly excels.

Thanks CMDR. I’ve got 2000 or so hours in the game. You really get out of it what you put in.

Sir, Thank you for putting this mess in the proper sequence. The music provided the perfect atmosphere for telling the best "ghost story" I've heard in a long, long time.

Well done, sir. Well done.

Superb video with fantastic editing! Thanks for the recap, I never seem to be on the front line of these events!

Alec Turner · Nov 4, 2020

Wow!

This is absolutely sensational and as I commented on Youtube it's testament to the Elite: Dangerous visuals and voice overs that they stand up so well when paired alongside Zimmer's extraordinary Blade Runner 2049 soundtrack! Superbly edited together too, and I love the play on the style of the original Blade Runner opening titles.

Bravo sir!

A beautiful homage certainly but the Blade Runner 2049 soundtrack was actually created by Hans Zimmer and Benjamin Wallfisch!

Ah I thought the first song was from the original movie.

I'm having doubts myself now ... @jfoughe did you use music from both films or is it all 2049?

It’s all 2049. I listed the 4 tracks I used in the video description.
