Elite Dangerous

Elite Dangerous

Inspired by the time-lapse bounty, I created a video comparing the gameplay of 1984 Elite and Elite Dangerous. While I know it’s not fair or possible to compare the two, my goal was to highlight how much has changed in day-to-day activities within Elite Dangerous over the years.

Forty years may not seem like much for a person, especially today, and while that might not apply to games, I believe Elite was a revolutionary game whose essence remains alive on Elite Dangerous to this day.

I've decided to show the final moments from the original Elite protagonist within the Elite Dangerous. Since we can have acesse of his final logs after the end of the First Thargoid War it was possible to reimagine its finals steps towards his tragical death.

From the original creators, Ian Bell and David Braben, to the latest gameplay in Elite Dangerous Odyssey, we'll explore how Elite has become a timeless classic in the gaming world. The Elite series of games marks its 40th Birthday-September 20th 2024. This genre-defining game has influenced gameplay for over 40 years and spawned into Elite: dangerous that we play today - but how did we get here? #elitedangerous. @JustAbout__

Here is a tribute video of my time in Elite Dangerous, sadly, i never played any of the older versions. I was surprised at how much this video has come to mean to me, reliving each moment as I edited a cutscene or image, I am eternally grateful for all the friends I've made along the way and the time shared with 100's of people. All possible through this timeless game. So 'Cheers' to Elite and a good ol o7 to the community! I've really been trying hard to improve my video editing skills, so I do hope you enjoy this.

I hope you like it. I also released a new comedy episode of the game. I hope you like it too.

The music and lines were created by me especially for this celebration video.

Was the most viewed video I've done and it wasn't using any real editing software like I do now ( sony vegas pro) instead the video above was using the twitch studio. Still i guess people like it .
