     @nanark @thomzane Yes, and it plays the Blue Danube on both versions!

     @codewiz I am a fan of the simplicity of No Man's Sky docking. For an activity that needs to occur often in each system, you just get close enough to the light and it handles the rest. https://yt.artemislena.eu/watch?v=TXF74VQhNFQ Elite: Dangerous does look better though.

     @codewiz When I was a kind playing the first Elite I'd pretty much die half the time I made it to a new system.
