Game to Discuss?
This week, let's discuss Elite: Dangerous the latest (and greatest?) sequel to the progenitor of all vidya starshit: No Mans Sky, notably (@MAGAShill), as well as Starfield (I think, haven't played it), Starsector (probably the best successor), and probably in some sense, every single game where you fly a spaceship. I won't go into the whole gory history of Elite, though features in it have made it to most every other space game: shitty procedural generation, the trade of goods of varying and dubious legality, and the seemingly ubiquitous engines - shields - guns power distribution system.
Unfortunately, Elite: Dangerous is hardly what I'd call innovative. While it did have the incredibly large randomly generated universe in common with, and prior to, No Mans Sky, for much of its existence planets were nought but pretty orbs to glance at from the comfort of your spaceship, which admittedly cut down on dev costs. The latest expansion supposedly makes planets into places you can visit, but I haven't, and probably won't purchase it, as it's apparently pretty dogshit. The game also has cosmetics purchasable with real world currency for some bizarre reason, which is pretty offputting. Beyond this, the vast majority of the gameplay loop resembles a simplified take on European Truck Simulator. You mostly travel from station to station, with various cargos, the specifics of which don't matter much. This gets boring real fast, tbh.
Despite all these flaws, this game isn't irredeemable, simply because it has the most detailed model of what a spaceship might look like/function. The asthetics are on point, and it feels properly futuristic in a way that similar games fail at. It even has a 
diegetic interface, which does a lot towards making you feel immersed. Too bad the core gameplay's shit though. Leave your opinions/thoughts below, and vote in the pinned comment.

Finished Pathfinder: Kingmaker. Really nice game, although the kingdom building has much less impact than what I would've liked. Other than some immunity to poison/fear research, all you need is to do the minimum to keep your kingdom floating above the deluge of problems that show up randomly. I would argue that the main plot is tighter than Wrath of the Righteous, but it becomes a bit too dry near the end (after the festival in Pitax). Perhaps they ran out of cash and decided to plow through with the core plot threads. I still think Wrath is the better game (both gameplay and story), but Kingmaker is worth a playthrough or two.

It's because the early access-cels from Kickstarter complained about muh strategy in muh RPG so the devs progressively made it less and less impactful.
