I’ll admit that I was discouraged at the start. There I was, a lone Pilot in the vast darkness, unsure of my lot in life. I had gone through training, sure, but I wasn’t sure what to do, where to go. What I didn’t realize was that Elite isn’t a game about giving you goals; It’s about defining goals for yourself.
As I read that, it sent a chill down my spine and was so impressed especially where you said Elite isn't a game that gives you goals, it's about defining goals yourself.
I think relating that to life means don't depend on people in this life ,instead of waiting for something/someone to help you, work with what you have and help someone else.
Thanks @cancermage you have given me another view of gaming.
I'm glad to have provided such a visceral sensation!
That's sounds about right. I got help from a veteran player eventually, but most of what I learned was on my own, through experimentation and effort. I try to pass on what I know to newer players and friends, and hope they do the same.
Wow that's nice. Not being stingy with you experience and skill. Love that
