Why I prefer Steam.

Number 99109209.

Started to download Elite Dangerous 2 Beta 12 hours ago.

Sitting at less than 400mb this morning. Current ETA 9days if it doesn't crash again. The installer just gives up after 5 minutes.

In Steam, I would be sitting on 800kb/s.

Oh hang on. MUCH FASTER. Only 6 days to go now...

The results have been quick and rewarding and I'm starting t...

Unlocking Hera Tani

Unlocking Hera Tani This is just so pointless. 4 trips for no good reason other than waste time. It's probably going to take me 4 days. I can't imagine that the same people who brought my favourite game back to life could come up with such a useless system as the various engineering unlocks and crafting system that you HAVE to do to progress meaningfully.
