      Elite dangerous is tragic. If they had half the budget Star Citizen has it could be an amazing game, but instead they’re forced to practically abandon development for years at a time in order to focus on games that bring in a profit.

      Still, if you have a VR headset, a HOTAS, and enough patience to learn how to fly, it’s an unmatched experience.

        don’t forget VoiceAttack. Speaking to your spaceship and having it answer back (for me, in the voice of William Shatner)

        “raise landing gear, all power to engines, on my mark engage jump drive… mark.”

        Give it a shot. It’s less polished in some aspects to SC, but there are so many different systems that they have still barely been explored, even after all these years. The flight is pretty damn good too.
