So after a little while, I decided to give odyssey a good try out .. (20 odd hours) ..
Here are the things I liked, Better graphics, that's always nice. Some nice changes to the hyperspace animation. I felt the overall experience was more polished (graphically) .. I haven't yet had the need to go "On Foot" (I did walk around a station a bit and it wasn't a game changer, it was ok)
Some things I am on the fence about, the menu changes, Is it me, or is it more cumbersome than before? It seems harder to find things ..maybe that is just something to get used to.
Things I do not like are the aforementioned menu changes. The changes to mining (not the profit) .. It's so much harder to spot a "Mother-lode" asteroid than before .. It seems you have to have multiple Hot-spots crossing over to get any real success and on top of that, it seems you make more for exploration than mining now. That seems a strange decision.
I am wondering (This may have already happened) if things like the "Robigo Run" will come back as you can make more money just doing the route than the mission, and that mission was fun.
and the "New additions" coming are irreverent to me. I was hoping for more gameplay additions, but again, more multiplayer stuff.
I did enjoy my time but things seem to be going in a funny/wrong way to me.
Happy Burger Day! (there is no burger day)
