We got augmented reality, virtual objects to interact with IN OUR TIME, and this guy's cockpit looks like it's brought back from 60s movie? For me E has way more 'realistic' look, if we are talking about future.

This looks fun, but I bet we would have way less players if ED was like that.

That's for sure; can you imagine any of us spending 15 RL minutes just to prep our ship before undocking; and that doesn't include bulletin board decisions? Just wouldn't happen with our player base.
