From what I've seen, even with all the problems it has Elite is still way better at being a game than Star Citizen. Watching people play it just looks so fucking boring and full of time wasting busy work walking back and forth. Elite at least lets you do everything from the cockpit in case you're not the kind of person that gets off on IMMERSION.
I liked it a lot, it is a good game to jump in, fly around for two hours and come back the next day or something. I liked it more since I have my own flying stick, the flying was smooth and fun. My only big issue was the "now what?", after completing a few missions, buying a new ship I didn't really know where to go. I guess I should have looked more into joining the Fuel Rats. Maybe one day.
I mostly stopped playing a bit after the whole engineering thing was added, just such a repetitive grind. Every now and again I'll jump back in though, I did grind enough to get a pretty long jump range on an Asp Explorer so I just go flying around discovering new stars and planets a bit until I get bored again.
