Elite: Game talk

That's a serious case of Elite Fatigue™ right there.

I haven't worried about grinding the Engineers. I figure, sooner or later, I'll gather what's needed. Keeping it fun is #1.

Aleksander MajjamHaven't played Elite in months, but have had fun in other games thus far, so decided to jump back in. Need to unlock just 3 more engineers.

Need 25 Modular Terminals. I Know I need to do passenger missions for them.

I see only one mission offering 30 Modular Terminals. Trip is a 44,000LY round trip.

I sigh, and to stave off depression, I pop Octopath Traveler back in. That game makes me happy.

I honestly just don't know if I can shell out the ridiculous time needed in order to get things done in this game anymore. It's sad, because I love this game to death.


If you have discord find me in Inara - I have 50 modular terminals stored on FC for lazy people.

SakashiroThat's a serious case of Elite Fatigue™ right there.


And the crazy thing Saka is that I took time off playing ED to stave off the fatigue. You could probably call completing CP2077 in its entirety a grind fest, but I enjoyed every hour of it. I love fetch quests in RPG's, but there's something about fetch quests that would take me a week or more to complete.

I wanted to unlock all of them before Odyssey hit consoles. I didn't want to have to worry about unlocking them when it released and changed having to unlock both engineers and whatever else is going to be added to unlock. Unfortunately, for this one engineer, you have to do specific shit to unlock him. There's also another engineer where you have to fetch 25 Sensor Fragments and I'm sure it's going to be the same slog as Modular Terminals.

481 hours of laziness since 2015. You got it!

That's a relog fest on Thargoid site with SRV.

And I told you I have 50 Modular Terminals, just log to the game , dock on my FC and message me in discord so I can put them on the market.

"Hey dude! I've got MT, I can help you out."

Would have been better than..

"I have MT's for you lazy POS."

Thanks, but no thanks. I just put in an order from the EIC. Going to trade Tritium for it. /o

Well, good luck. If you reconsider just let me know.

That seems to have come off a little more unfriendly then you intended, I think. I'm not saying it's bad as I get what you meant, but seemed a little rough is all.

I can confirm Epi is a blessing to lazy people.

Aleksander MajjamYou could probably call completing CP2077 in its entirety a grind fest, but I enjoyed every hour of it.

CP2077 has a special place in my heart, right next to Fallout 4. When the DLCs drop I'll start another playthrough for sure.

Going to Colonia and back (or equivalent) for modular terminals is indeed a bit much. I remember I collected the terminals by completing several smaller missions. For sensor fragments there is a site with a crashed thargoid ship where you can farm them. It won't take long.

If you do decide to take another break, let us know what you play in the offtopic thread.

I literally made 50 of them for 10 min by doing two pirate assassination missions in Gitse.

I'm considering moving my base of operations to 1 of the LYR systems. Any suggestions?

Time to go see it then.

Thanks Amata. I'll check it tomorrow.
