Good point but I also soloed quite a bit. It's definitely the type of game for me but before it would worth playing again it needs 1. Better performance (this would be incredible in VR but there's no way it's playable...), 2. More things to do - I stopped right before they added refineries and a few other mechanics - and 3. Actually be out of beta so you know your character won't get wiped and shit won't get randomly nerfed. Not holding my breath.

Elite Dangerous is breathtaking in VR btw. NMS is pretty cool too.
