To be honest though, both games offer similar things, but both also have a distinct feel and setting that while they will compete, there is also space in the market for both.

Shot of my newly pimped out Corvette in ED ^_^
You REALLY don't realize how maHOOsive these ships are until you get into a 1 man fighter in VR, It's a proper jaw dropper.

Passenger missions are the way to go.
Keep doing low level grunt missions until you can afford a Dolphin and fill it with economy class cabins, Take off things like shields and any other useless stuff, And then go to Barr Survey which is in the HIP112829 system, Fill up with passenger missions going to Searfoss Enterprise in the Haiden system, Log out to the main menu, Then launch into either solo or open, Basically the opposite of what you were just in, Reopen the newly refreshed passenger boards and take anything going to Haiden, Keep doing that until your passenger holds are full, But don't take any missions that are below 2 mill.
It's 1 jump from Barr Survey to Searfoss Enterprise BUT it takes about 15'ish minutes to get from your jump point to Searfoss Enterprise but the end cash in is worth it, With my Corvette fully equipped with economy cabins I usually cashin for around 100 mill each trip.
Keep doing that until you can afford a Beluga or similar ship that has many slots for cabins and each trip will give more and more money.
It's all I've been doing to get money and it works nicely, It's how I have a fully equipped Corvette, Imperial Cutter and Anaconda.
Cool, thanks Dice! I'm going to have to grind up some cash first, maybe hit some high security mining sites and grind some bounties. I can make decent coin doing salvage missions (presumably since I did a lot of those in the beginning), but I don't find those are time effective. I can pull 600k-700k per mission, but since I'm so weak in combat, I have to do those one at a time. I think bounty grinding works out to a much better $$ per hour ratio.

My strategy in the beginning was doing bounties until I got enough to buy a Dolphin, Filled it up with economy cabins then kept grinding, Works out nicely, I have just over 4 Billion credits now and that's after getting the 3 x ships I mentioned above fully equipped.
I set aside 2 hours per day for a few weeks and did nothing but that route above, Hence the huge amount of cash.

It's official. In true autistic fashion I have fallen in love with something long after every one else got bored with it 
This time it's Fallout 4. I liked it at launch, but it looked like a bucket of bums. The trees in the distance were blatantly fuzzy and the textures and weapons looked crap. This would be fine, but in a world where it needs to be somewhat believable it's important.
I must say that since launch the graphics have improved so much it is like playing a different game. And of course it makes it far nicer to just wander the wastes. It makes it more believable and I want to see all of it.
That's probably why I put in 20 hours just over the weekend lol.

FO4 is awesome. I really hated the story, the voice of the main character you play, etc. I also hated the "nerfed" skill system (compared to FONV). But those niggles aside, I've spent HUNDREDS of hours just wandering the wasteland. There's no other game like it. Once you get into mods, it's insane just how pretty that game can be, especially at 4K.

Yeah Bethesda really nailed it after the fact IMO. It was poor at launch, even at 4k. It was so awful at 1080p that I ended up DSRing my Nvid rig to 1440 and my AMD VSR to 1440 just to be able to stomach the graphics. Since the HD patch and the improvements etc and the weapon HD (Nvid only IIRC) it really looks as it should have on day one.
I enjoyed my first playthrough. But that was it. No "wow" or anything like that. It's still shallow compared to FO3 though IMO. The buildings are tiny and blocked off etc (crafty buggers) and the deep deep stories aren't there (like how I have now uncovered about 90% of the map and 80% of it has no quests nothing) but yeah it is a damn sight better than it was when I first played it at 4k at launch.
I hate the institute though. Seriously, going in there hurts my eyes. Too clean !
Oh yeah, Strong ! yeah I had him the first time around after Danse came out and the BOS vilified him. B-stards he could half scrap !
Now I am a woman and I have a wicked little gay relationship going on with Cait lmao. We sleep together and everything
I really loved how FONV brought gay people into the game. Really nice touch.

What got me in FO4 for quite a while was settlement building. I went apesh!t on that aspect for MONTHS, watched hours of other peoples builds, tips and tricks, etc. I went weeks without actually PLAYING the game itself until I ran out of resources for my settlements. I didn't expect to have that much fun just building stuff.
Once you see what you can actually DO with settlement building, you can go crazy. Yeah it's ugly, awkward, and needs a few mods to help it along, but it's fun. If you were ever Lego-crazy as a kid, you'll get it. Watch a few YT vids on the subject and you might get hooked, especially once you see some nice buildings.

FFXV Windows Edition demo, I played a little FFXV on a friends PS4 Pro and while it was pretty, The PC version is even better visually, 1 hell of a pretty and insanely detailed game.
