I got the game on 16[SIZE=2]th[/SIZE] Jan, I did not play Elite back in the day etc. however, from the first play, I was hooked. I have not played any other game for more than a few minutes since January. When I am not playing but online (like at work) I spend time on this forum, the E D sub-Reddit and the E D Facebook page. I even watch E D Twitch streams over breakfast.
But for the first time, yesterday early evening I did not play the game. I watched some TV instead. I didn’t feel like playing. I wonder if, after 6 months I am beginning to lose interest. I have done trading, exploring, a bit of pirating and bounty hunting, I play in Solo, Open and Private, I have a decent combat ranking and am Prince rank in the Empire. I have an FDL and an Anaconda. But since 1.3 there have been few Community Goals, missions seem crocked and RES and Nav no longer any challenge. I don’t play enough for and am frankly not interested in PP.
I worry that this is the end for me, for a game that has held my interest and captured my imagination for so long is finally losing its sparkle. I admired the E D Twitch Streamers like Mercenary Thorne, Bad News Baron, Time of Chaos and even TG Apples with his CL Naughty list. But they have gone, stream E D rarely or are streaming other games.
The regular outages, the focus on Xbox, the negativity on this board and the direction things seem to be going in the game is I think, all adding to my current mind-set. I really hope whatever FD are cooking up forthe next update is a good one. I want to get my E D mojo back.
