Feeling a little miffed that Aethon isn’t accessible

[aByZMal]

As I was reaching the end of the story and was still not prompted to travel to Aethon, I built up an expectation that the story continued in Aethon or that it was part of some endgame content.

So I was disappointed to find that I still couldn’t find a way to access Aethon until I looked up online that it’s not actually in the game yet.

I would’ve preferred not to be able to see Aethon at all if it has not yet been implemented.

Still looking forward to see it in future DLC just my two cents that if we can’t go there atm why bother showing it at all on the map

I feel you, but you get used to it. It's like a fun little teaser.

For me it a feeling that developers did not implement some part of the game rather a teaser. IMHO they should not include it in the game - (maybe kickstarted reason?) for me i rather prefer to learn from Erik that Aethon is in working phase.

Available as this summer's free DLC or 2024's paid DLC. Keep your finger's crossed. They also removed the Khait system from the map.

hybarf tics - clever name. The developers said nothing about the missing universes. Sounds like Aethon & Khait are at 123 Fake Street, Fake City, Fake State, 12345, Fake Country, Fake Planet. Hope the developers use algorithms to randomly generate unlimited galaxies, its what the kids need!

Khait isn't Khait Nebula it was another system scrapped from the initial roadmap along with many others

You do go to Aethon technically. Briefly.

I absolutely agree with the author, the game offers me the final mission but in my mind I was convinced that I still had a lot of hours of games left with Aethon. I love to play a complete game and not a kit, I don't think I will reinstall the game just for Aethon, in the end the lifespan is therefore shorter and disappointing.
Some will say that there is the option to clean all the areas in search of equipment, but this part of research is really secondary for me and collecting credits has no interest, it was more important the aspect dogfiht and main frame.

This is a small studio, consoles 1st, free DLC 2023, paid DLC 2024. This post isn't gonna change that.

And accepting unfinished games doesn't help anyone.

Let's be fair, please. The game is finished and feels finished (I completed it). You are just looking at future content.

Nowadays it seems like if the devs of a game have any intention of releasing DLCs or expansions, people consider those games "unfinished" and think the expansions should have just been included at release. It's behavior that is bizarrely punishing dev teams for wanting to add additional content down the road.

Big true. I'd personally prefer if there was a notice in game that specified that Aethon was currently inaccessible. I fell asleep while hyperspacing and ended up in the Aethon system by accident but it was empty, so I just assumed that it hadn't loaded since I didn't use a jump gate to get there. A bit disappointed to find out now that it's actually empty ngl.

Yes, you can travel far outside of systems while in supralight. There's a prompt of "Uncharted Space" for a bit and then nothing. But I think Aethon (and others) requires a jumpgate for load in. After "visiting" Aethon, I went in supralight to Khoine and it didn't load in either and was just empty space. I was able to go to autopilot back to the Union system without any problems.
