Elite Dangerous History - Part 4 - The Fall (and rise?) of Elite Dangerous, 2018-2020

Looking back over the game play this video covers, I find myself wondering if Frontier intentionally attempted to run off most of the Golden Age Explorers.

They did everything they could to preempt events of the time, making official events that came in just ahead of player driven ones that had been advertised weeks or months in advance, the FSS was extremely divisive and contentious even before you bring in the fact that there was No discourse and feedback as was conducted for the other segments, Fleet Carriers turned the entire dynamic on its head, making all of the distance related achievements of an earlier era trivial both in terms of difficulty and respectability, and implemented entire dynamics that, as mentioned in the video, road rough shod over long standing player created resources.
