Instead of getting your own items to trade and sell, you can stalk others, steal their stuff and then take it to a shady dealer to sell it for yourself.Įlite Dangerous does not hold your hand. If you want you can just play as a space pirate.

I did also dabble in a little bit of bounty hunting which was fun and helped change things up a bit and keep me from getting bored. Going on different journeys, taking things from one place to another and making money that way.

In this galaxy, there are a lot of things for you to do. Do What You Want To DoĮlite Dangerous does start with a handy tutorial that explains how you pilot your ship, but after this, you are on your own.

On PC, Elite Dangerous was one of the first truly massive space sims to offer VR support, letting users with SteamVR headsets pilot space ships through the game’s open-universe sandbox to fight, trade, cooperate, and mine. It was a great first ‘wow’ moment, and still is for anyone with a PC VR headset looking for immersion.Elite Dangerous has to be regarded as one of the most ambitious open world games of all time. It’s been free on all platforms since late October, representing a load of previously-paid content now baked into the base game. This also includes one of the game’s biggest DLC packs, Horizons, which in 2015 brought to the space-faring simulator the ability to land and drive on the surface of planets, craft weapons, and participate in multicrew action.
