A popular discussion on the Commander network has highlighted concerns about human colonization in Elite Dangerous, especially in distant regions like NGC6357, roughly 7800 light years from Sol. The commander argues that colonization should be confined to within 1000 light years of Sol to maintain the isolation and exploratory challenge of deep space. While appreciating remote outposts such as Colonia and Explorer's Anchorage, they warn that unrestricted expansion risks undermining the game's spirit of discovery.
- Focus on preserving isolation beyond 1000 light years from Sol
- Support for existing remote outposts like Colonia and Explorer's Anchorage
