Elite roleplay: Q&A and OOC

13 May 2018, 8:56am
I don't mind spending 5 minutes only in a station, as long as I'm able to experience the simulation of activities that would realistically take half an hour, or hours.
On the other hand, I don't have any particular goals I'm trying to achieve; I'm comfortable where I am right now. So I, too, play E:D about 1 hour a week. So a 30-minute session docked at a station could mean my whole gameplay experience for the week.

I could as well just create my own stories and keep them to myself, but being able to take control of everything and therefore not being surprised by anything takes the appeal off, to me.

I'm not sure I am keen to wait days in a station for repairs because I did a dumb and crashed into an asteroid.

To each their own, and that's besides the point. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I recently learned of an app that gives text-to-speech transcriptions of NPC chatter on your comms tab (also friends & wingmates, if you so choose). It seems a bit of a kludge to install and activate, but it might give you that extra bit of "life" you're looking for.

You can always listen to GalNet radio while you have a coffee break

If you want immersion, click on "repair all", head to your local car dealership, and hang out in the service department's lobby for an appropriate time while your ship is getting "fixed".

Make small talk about Thargoids to the service writer.

Tell the receptionist that you lost a lot of good men out in the Pleiades.

Tell them that the complimentary coffee is the worst you've had since that time you were holed up in Blackmount Orbital.

This was part of the reason why I decided to change my character and also that no one would still be alive after 150 something years after the first thargoid war
