Elite: Dangerous PvE - Mobius

Hi Mobius Community! Thanks for letting me part of this group!

My reasons for going PvE is likely going to echo the tens of thousands before me.

When I started, I refused to play Solo because I thought it would be fun to meet other CMDRs while doing stuff.

One day, I fly my Dolphin into a CG hot spot. (My dolphin had the stock Class 1 pulse lasers, my pilot registering as Harmless/Helpless/Defenseless), without so much as a hello, get instantly obliterated. I figure, ok lesson learned about these regions. As I rebuy and spawn at a nearby station, I figure, I'll just pack up and leave. I'm inside the station, get EMP'd while trying to take off, and again obliterated by someone inside. Rebuy again and this time, I contemplate, as my CMDR stares out the window watching this ship inside the station on silent/sinks/etc just lay in wait murdering whatever moves:

• Do I hail a taxi and go far away, and have my ship freighted back to me? I could.
• Should I block my killer(s)? I could, but where there's one, there are always more.
• Do I go Solo? To get out of here alive, absolutely.

I leave in Solo, but there's the dissatisfaction and uncanny valley of being in a MMO world solo.
So then, I discovered Mobius from various referrals online. Now at least, I can enjoy the experience of E:D.

I never understood how there are so many who enjoy an experience out of ruining someone else's experience. I get that it is an escape from real life and people just want to be murder hobos, but I am also trying to escape and would rather not have E:D just be a copy of harsh Darwinian reality. This is becoming a venty rant, so I digress.

Anyway, hope to bump into one of you at some point out there in the black!
Back to biting my nails, thinking about how to make money in the galaxy.
Also, bless the Fuel Rats!

Welcome CMDR HERMANOS1AI!

At least you tried open, that's more than I ever did. I completely skipped it and went straight to solo, only to switch to Mobius as soon as I heard about them!

As to what make some enjoy killing others for fun, well I do have a theory but I'll save that for next time we meet at a bar somewhere in the black

Looking forward to it! I have a few theories myself as well, founded on E:D MMO being an allegory to base human behaviour in real life.

More at the bar!

haha cheers! Though it could be quite a thing determining which bar

Just point me the way to a station serving extra spicy whiskey. Can knock'em down until we're dead (or wake up in a detention centre).
You know, I'm something of a philosopher myself...

Well we could just head for Lave and stock up on all the Lavian brandy they have at hand and have a party at my bar (on my carrier). Currently it's on the way to Sag A* from Colonia and heading towards Sol after that.

Still have some bottled drinks Jaques was kind enough to give me in Colonia. Special occasion blahdeblah something lol ~hic~

Let me know when you're about to reach Sol, I'll see where I'm at. I'm currently around the Princess' domain trying to improve my jump range so I can earn a better living with other stuff. This all started because I was trying to get into tourism but got sidetracked by how to get prismatic shields. Interesting where E:D life takes you... (also, I've generally abandoned those endeavours.)

I've shot you a friend request from my main account (Morgan Bateson) and my alt (Doug Heffernan). If you are on the Mobius Discord (see TS/Discord menu on top) I'm morganbateson on Discord you can DM me if need be.

Will be on the lookout!
