If you still think there is even the molecule of a possibility that star citizen ever releases, then you yourself are part of the problem. It’s been obviously a scam for about 15 years now. It’s not happening, accept that.
Disclaimer: I’m not a gamer, just following along out of interest.
This is exactly what I don’t get. People call it a scam and what not, but there is tons of footage of people actually playing a game that looks super fun and immersive.
Can you elaborate a little on those “scam” claims?
Yes, you can play the game. Frankly, the game world itself is fucking rad as shit, and I have enjoyed it in brief bursts. However, the game world is also infuriatingly empty and incomplete. It is difficult to have fun for an extended amount of time because while the world is rad the game systems are like half done at best.
After like 15 years of development it feels obvious that they’re more interested in getting market sales for ship designs than actually finishing the game systems… and that’s where you see people get angry. It doesn’t feel like they even want to do a full release as long as they can sell $10k ship pictures.
Actually, starfield took like 12 years and it was a big bag of ass.
I’m pretty content with what I’ve got out of Star Citizen and I’m fairly deep into it.
There’s always something new being dropped or some new meta.
And honestly, I liked Bethesda games for the bugs. Being eaten by an elevator or falling out into space is amusing as long as its not too regular. It straddles the line between infuriating and hilarious.
Theres a lot of haters who’ve never played it. When the 4.0 tech release dropped there were a bunch of people realising it was actually playable, and had been for some time.
Its had a very public development cycle that has so far taken about as long as Starfield, except starfield was shrowded in secrecy and had loading screens and landing wasn’t fun. Star citizen doesn’t show you a loading screen once you’re in the universe. Shows you plenty of other things that may as well be (riding the train, riding the elevator, inter-planet QT)
Its technically quite impressive and the first time I stumbled upon Whistlers Crypt was absolutely dope
That’s where I was at with the game. I bought the base package on sale for like 35 bucks then upgraded my ship to a Cutlass Black for another like… 40 or 50 for another sale?
I honestly don’t mind the 80ish bucks I sank into the game. It was fun. But I don’t expect it to ever be done.
Me either, but it keeps getting updated and I keep having fun with it. Its hillarious watching the non-playing haters bitch and moan. I’ll just get into my medi-bed and go another round blastin’ dudes.
Sure, SC is pretty but last I played on some else’s Pc all you could do is walk around and try to leave hangar without the game crashing or breaking which would inevitably happen.

I dunno man, I had fun fucking up some dudes in spaceships last night, and then shooting up a rebel bunker on a shithole moon.
Shits rad.

Claims vs delivery is the core issue.

The shit they are selling puts me off ever wanting to touch the game
Well theres the thing, you dont gotta buy it. Just get the base game like everyone else and gank people to get better ships.

Yeah I don’t get how people can invest so much time into hating the game.
I’d feel bad if I was someone pledging thousands of dollars, but for the sub 100 bucks I spent on the game, I definitely got my enjoyment out of it.
I wouldn’t want to yuck anyone’s yum, but is there anything you couldn’t do in EvE Online or Elite: Dangerous in the current state of SC?
Elite dangerous: We forgot how to make inertia wheels
EvE is spreadsheets in space.
Space truckin’ in SC is fun, as is dogfightin’ and dude-killin’.
Its also pretty. Super pretty.
Sure, SC is pretty but last I played on some else’s Pc all you could do is walk around and try to leave hangar without the game crashing or breaking which would inevitably happen.
Its not been like that for a while, but I’m spoiled with enough grunt to run it (almost always) at 4k@60
When I first backed it I thought my SLI’d gtx660ti would carry me… lmao
Except what?
Just joshin’.
