Hello its Ricardo and welcome back to elite dangerous beyond and this is
chapter one now chapter ones been with us for quite a while and we've all seen
the videos and how people think the content is dying the game is dying and
I've been guilty of this as well I've been saying is it dying and I put my
arguments across as well in my own little particular ranty way however I
think it's safe to say there are lots of things to do it's just our the player
community bored of doing them and they bored of the grind well we're not gonna
go down that rabbit hole are they bored of mining
well mining is a byproduct of wanting to get those additional materials are they
bored of going through what seems to be a useless rank system for example all
the way up to Rear Admiral or all the way up to King to get perhaps a ship
that players now feel they want more from frontier other than just a ship
update and some flashy weapons which you have to spend 20 30 hours in-game
grinding away picking up materials repeating a a set piece to get and then
having to fly all the way around the galaxy looking for a material broker I
don't know they did say a while back they wanted to
get back to grinding but I think they may have got the dynamic wrong and
please if you think so put that in the comments if you think the dynamic of
grinding is wrong or if you're really enjoying it but can I ask you a favor
if you haven't already done so click that like and subscribe button and you
haven't done so as well look at that notification bell but make sure you got
notifications turned on and I'll let you know what I'm putting more elite
dangerous videos on YouTube and that will really help me out but anyway back
to what we were saying is it the game we expected it to be I think so I think it
is vast I think there are lots of things to do I think the content has been
evolving I just don't think it's been evolving at the speed that players
wanted and at the youtubes that goobers have
mentioned will hey there are two types of youtubers for example one who says
yes I'm happy with the grind the other one is like well just before
to go and pootle around in my ship exploring and see the wonders of the
universe now just in the bubble the heart of inhabited space you're gonna
find loads of things to do you got all the trading that combat you've got there
huge mega ships that you can go and visit cargo ships and the like you got
all that happening and going on but if you step a little bit further afield and
you go to colonia well you think oh well i'm just twenty two thousand light-years
that's gonna be like a thousand jumps or whatever and once you get there you
think well what am I gonna do but the sites out there are something different
the backdrop is different you get some really good vistas you get some really
good sites Geezer sites brain trees outposts all that sort of stuff you can
go and visit pick up those materials but again it's not just about that what do
you really want from the game that's the key thing what do you want from it what
would you like to see from it you know buying in-game embellishments great
makes your Python look fantastic don't give you any combat advantage and that's
great I'm happy with that I'm not a fan of playing to wit paying to win I'm not
a fan of you know gaining in-game benefits from spending the outdoor
dollar if you know what I mean I'm happy with that dynamic I really am happy with
it however you know I'm bored I'm getting bored with it and I think it's
time to move out there and look for another game as well no man sky for
example that might give us a break while the entire game catches up it's a bit
like watching programs like lost or The Walking Dead
right Anna hear me out on this one because you're compelled to watch it in
case something happens like with lost oh we got polar
bears oh you know we found a VW campervan I mean I don't know what you
all thought about that it was pretty obvious that I thought they were in
purgatory right from the get-go and that's apparently what it was and
like with the walking dead you know well we found a firm brilliant excellent for
a series couldn't fault it loads of action you see that the downgrade of
humanity and that's what it's all about not really they're zombies but then
after that you get a load of monotony oh my god here we are again looking for
baked beans is elite dangerous going the same way
are we getting bogged down in the grind did we get them bogged down in doing the
boring tasks and in turn then I is boredom being promoted but again I'll
ask what do we expect from the game it is a vast open-world game you can go
where you want you can virtually do where you want but I think they have to
come up with this season - pretty damn quick I think before a lot of their
player base starts to move elsewhere like I said no man scares got a huge
huge update coming soon when it gets released on the Xbox and after the Xbox
that's gonna filter through into the PC as well so how is that going to affect
how people player the games people are playing at the games now even as we
speak it's not all about elite dangerous the diehards will play all the time and
I count myself as a die-hard I was playing it this morning but it got me
thinking I'm just it's almost as if going to work and I think if something
becomes tiresome and it's obviously not enjoyable though if it's not tiresome
then you don't know you're doing it for you I'm quite lucky I enjoy my job I
really I don't look at it as work I look at it as doing something completely
different every day but in relation to this
I am getting bored so what'd you think put it in the comments keep them clean
I've been recurred it's been elite dangerous and I've been bored fly safe
and see you soon
you
