A player returning to Elite Dangerous after about 100 hours of pre-Odyssey Horizons gameplay has reinstalled the game and is revisiting tutorials and basic missions to refresh their skills. They currently have no interest in the on-foot Odyssey content but are confused by the multiple launcher options available, including Odyssey, Horizons, Legacy Horizons, and Legacy. This confusion reflects a broader trend among returning players who want clearer guidance on the current game versions and content paths. The evolving Elite Dangerous experience presents challenges for players re-engaging after time away, highlighting a need for improved communication about game options.

  • Multiple launcher versions cause confusion for returning players.
  • No current interest expressed in on-foot Odyssey content.
