  I don’t mean to suggest Elite is necessarily a bad game because of it. Every game is ultimately limited in some ways. I’ve enjoyed most of my time playing it, until I hit the part where any kind of grinding just makes me unwilling to participate. I do occasionally install it, fly around a bit in VR and blast some enemies. That keeps me entertained for a few hours. Then I uninstall it and forget it exists for a few years.

  So you might have fun playing it, you might not. There’s a fair amount of grinding required to get the better ships or a big number in your credits account. If the limited amount of variety isn’t an obstacle for you, then there’s a decent chance you’ll have fun.

    Yeah I did that when the game was almost new. And I dont mind some grinding for better stuff, it’s just that I felt that grinding was the entire game. I was hoping to be able to buy and sell resources and transport them across star systems for a profit, under the danger of pirates attacking me. Stuff like that. But its not that kind of game.
