Starfield is what Elite could have - and should have - been. I take no pleasure in Bethesda showing Frontier how to have legs in space on a console. We should have been first.
Starfield is what Star Citizen should be by now, at least regarding the planets. It's totally lacking in the space flight department, has excessive fast travel and as such is the polar opposite of what Elite Dangerous is.

exactly this. i played some more over the last few days and i just can't get past the space flight mechanic. to turn a phrase thrown around on this forum, Starfield feels like a FPS with a shallow space flight game bolted on. on the plus side, playing Starfield has reminded me how much i love playing Elite: Dangerous. been flying around Cubeo, doing some inter-system trading and hoping to see at least one of the 200+ Commanders that the System Traffic Report says has passed through. (yes, i know. not actually 200+ Commanders, just the ships that have jumped in System.) but, they must all be PC, PS, or XBox Solo.
