I take long breaks from ED, sometimes months at a time. But there is something special to getting back into your ship. Firing up those thrusters and lifting off from the godforsaken rock you are parked at. Space coming out to meet you.
I have tried to play other space games/sims, but nothing has else has given me that sheer sense of vastness.

Yea, I'm currently on a long break myself due to variety of reasons, but firing up the engines on a ship and hitting the FSD never ceases to be magical.
The group started with the first Thargoid invasion. With the burning stations. Focussing on rescue and salvage of personal and equipment out of Thargoid destroyed ports. Builds, faq and targets.
The current invasion has given us a lot of work. Now we focus with IDA and smaller factions to evacuate and clear alert systems. Phill, our current commander in green, picks the most urgent systems and we take it from there.
Mostly a non violent group, avoiding direct conflict, but with no fear. If you see a red, shieldless Beluga boosting out of a burning station, being pursued by a swarm of goids, please clear the way 😴
Its honest work and makes a trackable difference to the war effort. I had a lot of good interactions and role play opportunities during the initial stages of the war. It is something to experience, flying in, defenceless, with goids swarming around a burning ground port and the anit xeno guys giving them a good fight. Using the text in game comms to request cover and so on.
To add, I appreciate the fact that the screenshots are the main posts so far. This game is really pretty, and I don't care that people say it's a screenshot maker in a derogatory way.
