# I finished 'Elite' though.
That's how boss I am.

# I never got beyond Dangerous
six whole weeks of solid playing. good grief.

# I don't think you can actually finish Elite.
But once you get the 'E-L-I-T-E' title and have completed all 3! missions there's little to encourage any more gameplay.

# I got to be "Elite"
...was there more to it than that?

I remember getting whacked a couple of times early on by the Thargons, but once I'd tooled up and felt ready to deal with them, the buggers were nowhere to be found :(

# On the Speccy version I was always in Thargoid space
Shortly after the dreaded 'Fuel Leak' warning.

# you could get into thargoid space, or whatever it was called
by doing something in hyperspace. pressing some combination of buttons. it always ended in tears.

# Thargoids, that was it
They only ever seemed to show up when you were completely unprepared :(

# Thargons were the little robot drones the thargoids would release.
