The future of Elite Dangerous

[Starshot_Jigawatts]

The Odyssey launch was a disaster due to bugs and performance. Now it's a good expansion.



Ship interiors could be monetized very much which benefits Fdev to create (hopefully) more DLC for ED. Braben discussed ship interior gameplay and there's artwork. A bunch of games have interiors + gameplay. For example Wildgate.

"Good" might be stretching it, but there's a reason why I used the word "was". Indicating I'm talking about the past, yes.

Wildgate was designed from the start with ship interiors, it also looks like a cartoon but I digress. Crow-baring them into Elite 10+ years after launch isn't something I believe they can pull off without negatively impacting the game. Unless they communicated a LOT more details. Not the "Colonization will be great, trust us bro" surface level communication we've gotten.

that wildgate looks great, just my cup of tea in theory however it just depends if you can cut out the PvP and if you do what the quality of the pve is in coop.
