Thefirst developer diaryfor Elite Dangerous: Odyssey focused on the planets in the expansion, and how players will be able to explore them, but the second developer diary focuses on the choices in play style. Players will be able to “forge their own path” in Odyssey, playing however they want. You’ll be able to choose where to go, how to get there, and even what kind of suit to wear that best suits your needs and desires.
