"Elite Dangerous Community Equipped for Victory in Massive War, But Without Instruction Manual"
After 18 months of battling the Thargoids in Elite Dangerous, developer Frontier has equipped players with the tools needed to combat the alien threat, but without clear instructions. Lead game designer Luke Betterton explains that the game intentionally varies in how it provides information to players. The ongoing conflict has seen players engaging in humanitarian efforts and direct action, with the outcome still uncertain. Betterton highlights the challenge of incorporating new narrative elements into the game's long history and teases upcoming mysteries for players to unravel.
