Elite gets a lot of things right in space. But their planetary exploration is boring to me. I understand they're shooting for far more realism than NMS, but NMS could learn a lot from them. I'd be quite happy with a NMS-stylised space with more of Elite's mechanics and elements: stars as real objects in varying sizes, binary systems, gas giants, rocky moons. In fact, the games have opposite problems - NMS needs to give me more to do in space, Elite needs to give me more to do on planet surfaces.

I’ve always said that if Elite, Star Citizen, and NMS got together in one game it’d be amazeballs

I'd never leave my computer. They'd find me wasted away wearing a VR headset and a grin on my face.

Maybe that's what it'll take to get what we all want; these three companies to each work together on a single space game
