Strongly disagree, except the sound design which is incredible.
My dreams of exploring the galaxy were fully realised in Elite: Dangerous.
I had more awe inspiring and mind blowing moments in ~100 hours of SC than in my 2000+ hours of ED. The role playing and shenanigans with other players, the diverse locations, the scale of everything... It's just so much more interesting and immersive compared to ED and continuing to get better. ED is what I expect to actually be out in our galaxy, a whole lot of nothing. 400 billion star systems with the depth of a puddle.
You're both nuts..that's too much.
What is too much? The entirely optional package for whales?
Yea… for us but there are probably a few wealthy individuals out there who are time poor and would like to buy it.
Doesn’t harm me at all so why would I care
I've spent less on SC than I did on ED and having way more fun so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
