Elite Dangerous

Its an interesting idea for a game, but sadly its filled with a lot of nothing to do. Sure I can jump around between systems using some very clunky and poorly thought out menus delivering goods, but beyond that, content doesn't generate. I can try to go look for pirates, but I can spend hours finding none while being told to go to randomly generated far away locations that make no sense. Mining is not straight forward at all and requires some considerable investment in capital and modules, and forget about finding any asteroids to mine. I can spend hours finding nothing. There are also not nearly enough ships s in the game, and no, none of the "ships" are actual ships. You only get access to small fighter planes, or slightly larger fighter planes. There aren't any capital ships to unlock unfortunately. There are however, microtransactions where you can buy a pay to win "ship" instead of playing the game and unlocking stuff. Elite Dangerous is a pointless waste of time of a game with no content, horrible UI design, and falsely advertises itself.

NO!

It's a very special game and I have a lot of trouble encapsulating my thoughts and experiences in a simple Steam review, so I'll try to keep it short. What I will say is that since I started playing in 2015, no other released (looking at you SC) space game that I've played or know about has come close to the fidelity that Elite Dangerous offers, though it is not without its flaws. The developers have historically been pretty bad at managing this (imo) gold mine of a game and I quit playing for many years after they seemingly left it to rot after a poor DLC launch, but it seems like microtransactions work just as well here as they do in other games. Great, who doesn't love microtransactions? On the bright side, they're almost entirely cosmetic and the ships - arguably pay2win in the early access phase as they *are* quite a bit better than older designs - do become available for purchase with regular in-game credits after a few weeks/months. If the price of a dlc every few years is rolled into a few small microtransactions so that FDev can continue releasing free updates, then so be it. You can also earn the premium currency in-game, but the weekly cap is 400 and most ships cost around 16k, you do the math. The ship power creep doesn't really bother me as, well, technology gets better and cheaper in real life all the time, why should a game be different? If the new ships make parts of the game (long range exploration with the caspian, mining with the type 11, hauling with the plipper...) much more enjoyable, then that's a price worth paying. I came back after a while, bought a caspian and went on a grand tour of the galaxy, something I would have never done without that ship. They've apparently been revamping some core systems over the past few years. I think that's a good thing as the game has a few areas that definitely need a touchup - notably exploration, which can be great for screenshots but is rather same-y in that all planets of a specific type look the same. There just isn't much to do out there if you're not interested in astrodynamics or making heaps of money with exobiology (scanning said plants). They should also provide more in-game information to the player, it's almost impossible to make good use of your time without a lot of third-party tools that help with plotting more efficient routes, trading and finding planets/exobiology species, just to name a few. It's a game that you either lose yourself in or quit after 3 hours because you can't figure out how to land at a starport, there is no in-between. Give it a shot if you like flying detailed ships.

still banned after 5 years, still no evidence to support foul play on my part, still no reversal.
