Starfield's Algorab System vs Elite Dangerous
24 Feb 2024Gadnok
INARA is for Elite and newly Starfield, so I feel this is an appropriate logbook entry.My newest video showcases the beauty of Starfield's planets by lightly comparing the Algorab system to its counterpart in Elite Dangerous. It was also an opportunity to give a short and concise review of Starfield with my positive reactions to the story and planet tech.
Algorab in Elite is home to my squadron - Sidewinder Syndicate - and contains a ringed Earth-like world, quite the rarity in ED. I was happy to see the star included in the Starfield along with many familiar systems from astronomy. Actually, comparing systems from Elite appearing in Starfield could be a whole video series of its own, but we'll see if someone else beats me to it.
If I can say very honestly, this was the most fun I've ever had working on an independent video. I'm excited and nervous to put myself out there like this. That being said, it also took me five days of focused time after every work shift to make this quality of content, and I wonder to myself if I'm capable or entertaining enough to sustain that. That's working an 8 hour shift for a business, then putting another 8 hours into the evening every day for a week making this video. It's a balancing act that becomes more than just playing video games, and may not manifest for good if the video doesn't perform well.
What I'm trying to say is, I have tons of great ideas for videos of comparisons, guides, music videos, etc.. and there's never enough time to be creative. I guess it's an issue that affects many of us in the modern world, we're too busy making a living to live a little. I won't quit my day job any time soon, but I'd like to believe the world won't be machines making art and music while humans make corporations money.
If you're still reading, you might be someone who cares about my creativity and for that I'm grateful. I'll do my best to make more Elite, Starfield, and SpaceEngine content but can't promise the world. For those who watch the video until the end you may understand more who the Breaker of Worlds is, and the state of my mentality.
Enjoy Algorab in Starfield Compared to Elite - A Short Review, and I'll attach the the video's thumbnail for a closer look. Peace
