It does beg the question why someone who doesn't play a Frontier game feels the need to still be on here complaining about Frontier games, though.
The fact I'm not able to play EDO because it's unplayable on my laptop - 12fps on medium settings in settlements - which however handles EDH ok (am away from home so no access to my gaming PC) seems to turn out to be a bit of a blessing in disguise.
It's a waste of time.
So why waste time on the forum for a game not played anymore instead of spending time to actually play a game of liking... beats me
We paid for Odyssey through financially supporting it's development all the same as actually purchasing it.
Fwiw, I haven't even tried them yet. I looked at the convoluted design (that table the CMs shared before) and the fact the mixed variants come only in size 3, and the 'true' MLC only in size 7 completely killed my enthusiasm - I initially hoped that the MLC would outright replace existing limpet controllers, and it'd allow us to build more diverse ships, particularly smaller pad ones. A size 1 MLC on a Sidewinder or Hauler... or freeing up some slots by not wasting them on 3-4 different limpet controllers making ships more versatile... but it seems true QoL features like that are for some reason frowned upon.My first thoughts where, these new LMPs are so good (for small ship mining at least) that ii somehow has to be compensated. But then I realised, that the max limpet number is total, for both the prospector and collector limpets. So if you want to go on mining with a max. possible number of collectors, you'll frequently have to switch off and on the controller which, unfortunately, kills all currently active limpets. Either that, or moving far enough away from the prospector so you exceed the distance limit which only kills the prospector limpet. I think this small nuisance is compensation enough. Otherwise My CMK4 would fly like a mini Conda.

Do you also find it easier to breathe, easier to sleep and/or do you have a lower blood pressure? Maybe this is the way to go forward. I have the same every year when I buy the new FIFA and then decide to uninstall it again after a few week because it's utterly infuriating. It's my yearly shock therapy, really kicks of a healing and cleansing process.
A few years ago I decided to no longer purchase games of the following genres:
Don't feed him , he's just trying to get the bingo before everyone else!
I don't have Odyssey myself (VR player here), but I've read from other people that plasma shotguns at point blank range can have some interesting effects on NPCs.
I don't have access to one, but how did it affect your jump range? I'll start bothering with the new limpets once they fix their messed up mass values. I'd like to build a ship specific to megaship looting/rescues but not with the current impact on jump ranges.
Mortal Kombat is still okay, even though it kinda lost its comedic value along the way (it used to be gory funny, now it's just gory). Used to play Battlefield too, but gave up after 4 and CoD's not much better nowadays. As for sports games, honourable mention for the NHL series for still staying relatively playable and not too gimmicky. Just a shame you can't get it on PC.
%*^&@#, alright then, because you went through the trouble. ^^
Actually, even single player fighters (Tekken vs Streetfighter on the Vita was my last purchase...) could boil my blood (probably not anymore now because now I no longer care whether I can 'finish' a game). BF3 was my last game in the series, that was a few years ago and even then I realised my reflexes aren't there anymore. I still like shooters in general but usually not of the dedicated sort (CP2077 shooting feels quite satisfying for example, EDO much less so unfortunately). Last NHL game I played was NHLPA '93 on the Mega Drive, have that on my RPi3+, awesome game still.
One of the main reasons I still have the Amiga up and running in the office. Games from a simpler time that require nothing more than up, down, left, right, and a single button to play, and are fully focused on the games actually being fun rather than looking pretty. (Shadow of the Beast notwithstanding.) Every time I try to play FIFA on my PS4, I give up and just fire up Kick Off 2. Any time a buddy insists on playing Madden, I need a session of Speedball 2 to cleanse the soul. Every time I try playing a game that requires the finger dexterity of a world class pianist to manipulate the hundreds of button combinations, I boot up a bit of James Pond, Gods, Fire and Ice, or one of the billion fun but ludicrously simple platformers of the time.
FWIW, I did a reboot of the PC, and FPS has returned to pre 9.01 performance. That was certainly unexpected because a restart of the game didn't help. In either case, it's playable again
