I'm seriously starting to get impressed by ED all over again, and it's not just the power play decals
I know we moan, a lot, but look at it like this, things we've had in the last year alone:
Planetary landings and the SRV. Engineers and ship customisation. Ship launched fighters and npc crew. Stuff on planets from barnacles to brain trees. New station interiors. The new voice chatter. New ships. The formidine rift and ancient ruins. Sexy new Neutron stars. Improved station UI. Module storage. Ship transfer. Power play decals constantly improving graphics. Passenger missions. All the qol updates. The CQC assets in game. Thargoids !! almost. Module reinforcement and military slots. Commander creator. New fancy camera. Multi crew. Gigantic ships. Ship kits. Star type route filters. All the enhancements to power play and the background sim. UA's and UP's and crashed ship sites. Colonia. Etc etc etc..
It's.... a lot. Are there still things needing fixed? Yes, do we still want more? Yes. But I think now and again it's worth stepping back and just appreciating all the work the fdev guys have done. We focus on lots of minor things, and yes those matter too, but seriously, for the cost of entry (£40 at most) is there any game out there that can even come close?
The reason for this is that a friend whom I bought the game for over a year ago, logged back in for the first time the other night and installed horizons. She was blown away by all the new features, things we've come to take for granted. She was like "finally I can see why you raved about this so much".
So, despite my moaning now and again, thanks fdev, keep it up. Now take my money and gimme those custom suits already
