Empyrean Is this not just a carbon copy of Elite: Dangerous?


Elite has been going since the 80's, with the namesake of SC debuting in the 90's. They're both very good games and will attract different players and different playstyles.

It's weird that the only people that seem to complain about one copying the other, don't actually seem to play either game. Because, if you did, you'd realise they do not.
