A little short on some things I would have liked to hear about (more types of landable planets was notably absent for example) but overall it was a decent stream with a few unexpected reveals that are worth noting. That it's actually going to be free for Horizons owners was a big shocker, but I suppose you could put that down to my own learned cynicism of the game industry, fully expecting them to double or triple-dip on an already full priced game out of sheer habit.



The Krait looks damn cool, I like what they're doing with the underslung cockpit, always wanted a ship with better ventral visibility for planet skimming. The panther clipper Chieftain was nice to see too, wonder if those engines rotate?



And to clear up for anyone who's not sure yet, yes the Type-10 is indeed a militarised Type-9, as indicated by the wording of the game files.



Their explanation as to how they're going to expand the frankly lackluster in-game narrative was light on details and heavy on buzzwords so we'll have to see how that plays out, story integration is their weakest skill so far.



Mining and exploration expansions are good to hear, but again somewhat lacking on details so I'd expect more to come on that as the updates get closer.



The squadron stuff I'm not particularly interested in but if it keeps captain moneybags busy maintaining a capital ship then sure why not.



Overall take from the presentation positive, not bad frontier, not bad. Let's see how it plays out from here.
