In a future DLC for Raxxla
State of the Game

- Start date
I have at last arrived, after much delay (RL, work etc). Exploration data sold at the requested place - not tonnes of it, as was mostly just jumping through systems, but still quite a bit.
EDIT: Selling, not SOLD - 12 pages to go

Shame @Rubbernuke and all of the Kumo crew are so busy in the bubble... They could be having a ball out here
Well if FD made the Kumo Council BGS faction (or whatever its called) actually compatible with the Kumo Crew (i.e. not made it feudal) you might have.Thank you kindly... Yet another war happening from today... Gosh the place is buzzing!

I've seen a picture like that before but it had two hands in it.
And here we see the first ever photograph of the Ender parents, in their natural habitat; a local place, which is of course for local people...
Oh my!
well, I'm just expressing my personal feelings here - NMS has what I want, ED hasn't and if I compare both there isn't much what is fun to me in ED, but a whole lot in NMS.I can run farms, build bases, every planet has something interesting to find and experience, that is what I want, not those myriad of barren rocks with nothing on them like in ED. It is hard to believe that I've clocked 700hrs in ED - but a lot of it was travel time - that part which is basically waiting on arrival. To me ED has nothing to play compared to NMS.
You are feeling differently and so do many - I can well see that Rat Catcher is enjoying the game for example and others might do as well. ED just doesn't offer what I want, it is my perspective on the game, an empty galaxy with barren rocks everywhere outside the bubble, rocks where you can do pretty much nothing on and everyone feels the same.
btw I compare games by their fun-aspect - so I can even compare a game like Frostpunk with ED or any other game - is it fun to play or isn't it. Frostpunk for example is surprisingly that game which I played the most, even I considered it to be a Bethesda game or one of the assassin's creed or farcry games to be. In the end I had the most fun fiddling with extreme endurance mode in endless with hazards in Frostpunk - this is where I had actually the most fun, unlike what I thought it would be.

this is a valid point as well - I missed entrepreneurial stuff in ED, in NMS I can run farms and ranches and build bases and every planet has something interesting and unique to it. I'm not using those quick money make "cheats", but run farms and ranches and enjoy exploration. And every planet has something interesting there, even barren ones aren't really barren, NMS is quite magical and fantasy though, maybe that is what you don't like with it - but I got used to it, it feels a bit like being for the first time on Nirn in TES:Morrowind in 2003 - this alien planet with it's huge mushrooms and all kind of alien life forms - not realistic, but fun to explore. That is what I like with NMS.

I am beyond amused that Kumo is not Anarchy 100%... Fuedal? Really? What were they drinking?
The Pirate King would be anarchy all the way...
Enough said! I have around 400 hours in NMS and still play bits when I want to just have fun, the Space Derelicts are amazing (something I'd hoped feet might have brought us at some point - land ship, disembark, exactly the same as NMS as that makes sense to me!) and I normally end buying the location info most sessions - much more 'adventure' than those crashed freighters!
Let's be fair, I've been making my own entertainment in Horizons for a few thousands of hours, Odyssey permits me to do some far better crafted missions as well as have the option to 'do my own thing' in their new installations - so just added 'more' to what I'd do normally!
I can see where those who requite the game to 'feed' content to them might find the DLC not to their liking, probably as missions take much longer (on average) for much less pay. If one isn't already rollong in credits made from stolen goods, Odyssey isn't a 'get rich quick' expansion.
Not sure... Piracy isn't anarchy.I am beyond amused that Kumo is not Anarchy 100%... Fuedal? Really? What were they drinking?

it is not that to me - I stated many times that I want entrepreneurial stuff in a game, something what is totally missing in ED - in ED I am a freaking errand runner and that is not pleasing me at all. I don't need content fed to me, like in missions, I dislike missions even, I need freedom to do something what I want and for that I need content to play with - ED has to little of that content I need. So to me playing EVE and NMS has what I want from a space game - EVE has the interactive part in space with many people around and it's player driven economy offers my entrepreneurial needs (well, I'm freaking rich in EVE, still I'm enjoying market pvp there) and NMS offers me the planetary stuff I wanted.
It is as well not about getting rich to me - everyone who isn't totally lazy will get rich in any type of game, where money plays a role. The point to me is more that I can do something on my own enterprise, build something what is mine and what I can own - what can I own in ED, a bunch of ships but that is all there is to it.

Begs the question why you bought Elite in the first place because being an errand runner has been at the core of the game since day one.
I came to ED due to Horizon - in EVE I cannot land on planets - I expected more from EDH though, and I thought it would eventually be fleshed out over time. I didn't know FDev before and therefore I didn't know that they do just the bare minimum never to extend on it later on.
I expected it as well to be more like EVE - but it just isn't.
In Powerplay terms the Kumo are weak when trying to control a feudal gov type. And true to FD thinking it through that faction got plonked right next to Harma, so if it spreads it will actually harm the Power faction.I am beyond amused that Kumo is not Anarchy 100%... Fuedal?

Thank the gods.
