    The Distant Worlds 3 event happening in Elite Dangerous is so cool; folks have built an entire roleplaying game platform around it, there are radio stations, a magazine, a SRV racing circuit, a bunch of people doing nerd things in spreadsheets, plus more, and it's entirely community-driven.

    A fun fact about me: I am so very good at jumping onto trends late, hence why my first ever FF game was 14, and I missed the train there too by starting at Dawn Trail. Based on recommendations from friends and a Distant Worlds concert, which played Zanarkand, I have decided to start with 10.

    I think any video-game themed orchestral concert (Distant Worlds, etc.) could be vastly improved is there were no screen involved. leave the distraction of cutscenes and gameplay footage out of the symphony hall and allow the music and performance itself to be the unfettered primary focus!

    This is Elite Dangerous, a game that has a to scale representation of the milky way! I find the game very fun, but it is fairly heavy on the flight sim aspects compared to a lot of games (not quite MS Flight Sim, but getting there). I'm currently on a player run group event called Distant Worlds 3.

    It's FF14 and 16 focused, but arguably FF14 encompasses so many FFs and their music to the point songs like Eternal Wind get more associated with FF14 then the game it actually came from (FF3). So for all I know it could still be a normal Distant Worlds concert 😂

    I think the side-quests are just so obviously filler content. I ended up rushing through the last 1/2 of the game to finish before a Distant Worlds concert, and it felt like... A lot of love went into these storylines, but we were never really given a reason to care about this stuff over the MSQ.
