I see OP got Odyssey.
Did OP ever report back and share whether they enjoyed it or not?

That he didn't show back up complaining should tell us he's too busy enjoying it.
You'd be surprised by the first Space-Orbital_Cruise-Normal Space transition when coming to land on an atmospheric planets.
Beats almost anything in Horizons in terms of candies...
For you maybe.
I'm quite pleased with the Ship-OnFoot transition. If anything i wished it was even faster.
For example i'm not overly impressed with the animation of Srv Disembarking since i dont think it adds much to the game, except to notify that the SRV seems to be tightly packed inside it's hangar - which actually raises some other questions of srv cockpit accessibility, while in its hangar, in its packed state
Not at last, i wonder how people coped with SRV immersion breaking in the context of "Armstrong moment" in Horizons.
I mean we got to get the LRV moment experienced by Apollo 15 way before the Armstrong Moment that happened in Apollo 11, a couple years before.
And to remind you that your lights are on and you need to switch to night vision if you're on a covert operation.
No, but starting from the sas of our ship with a nice animation of the door opening in first person, then our commander, in 3rd person, slowly descending the ladder/ramp, carefully touching the ground with his feet, bending down to touch the ground with his gloves, looking around, getting up again then back to first person.
Of course, with the possibility of switching the animation at any time for those who wish.
Well there have been times when I'm tired and pass the blue cylinder, going to head up the stairs before I remember... 
This bloke named Neil Armstrong did an interview in the Guardian newspaper (I think) and made the point that it was the first footprint on another body that was his greatest moment, not climbing down a ladder.
Just thought I'd mention it...
Well that's easy for HIM to say, he didn't have teh immershin of the moment ruined, did he??!?
Also Fdev - GOLF ON LOW G PLANETS WHEN?!?!
There is low G cricket, you bowl a grenade at your opponent's feet and score if you knock them over. They get a run if they escape.
Well... it's a whole. If you're wondering what the best part of an amusement park is, it will probably be a particular attraction. Build that same attraction in your garden and it will quickly be much less enjoyable. Worst, the original attraction in amusement park will became bland.

I'm not playing a theme park game, even if you are...
But the "Armstrong moment" isn't the disembarking, that is in the mind of the few - according to Mr Armstrong, of course...
ETA: It seems odd to disagree with the very man from which the phrase has been coined

What? There are Guardian newspapers in the game now? Anyway, they are not a reliable source, they only give their biased view!! Thargoids are innocent.
I approve this message.
Welcome to the 21st century, where internet goers know more than the people that actually did things.
It's a metaphor and you know it...
But I did change the post to avoid confusion with theme park games.
I'm not disagreeing with Armstrong. If he's saying that the first footprint on another body is his greatest moment, i believe him unreservedly. But we're talking about "Armstrong moment", not the greatest moment in Armstrong's history or even the best part of "Armstrong moment".But the "Armstrong moment" isn't the disembarking, that is in the mind of the few - according to Mr Armstrong, of course...

Ah, the internal perception of what an event should be, rather than what it is, or was...
So, essentially, something fabricated in the individual's mind?
I got it...
So i guess you can explain objectively why what Armstrong considers his greatest moment in his life should be formaly understood as the "Armstrong moment" ?
And also why "Armstrong moment" should be reduced as what Armstrong considers as the best part ?
Ah... and if you can also give a link to your source, just to make sure your memory isn't playing tricks on you ^^
