Backed it in 2014 and still play from time to time. Get pretty obsessed with it in two or three month chunks.
Genuinely believe it will launch before 2025 but by then some other less-grand space game laced with AI will probably offer a more interesting experience.
Biggest unintentional product of its time, VR wasn't even a thing when this was relevant and now it's likely we'll see TES 6 before this reaches 80% of their roadmap
Its because rich nerds just really wanted a good space sim and the director had a few good games under his belt of the genre right? what do they even have now? elite dangerous and no man's sky?
So that's what? 10 million sales at $60 (without overhead). It's a lot of money, but there are other games perform similarly or even better. The only real difference is SC isn't out.
I gave them 60 dollars for a pre sale. That was like 10 years ago. Still have the account. Still no game. I expected them to release Squadron 42 at least. But I have a new job and a kid now so I wont have time even if they do.

Millennials really will donate all their money to scam artists and then wonder how they can't afford a house, huh
>all their money
Yeah, if only they saved for a little more those couple hundreds of $ would turn into a couple hundred thousand needed for a down payment on that shitty mortgage lmao
>get basic game package one year ago >enjoy the trainwreck of a game for what it is >take break for several months and somehow lose login credentials >customer service is worthless and can't help me
i'd love to check the state this shit's in right now but no way in hell i'll spend money on a new account. it is what is is.
>Sony spent $200m each on Horizon and TLoU2
So they've gotten three AAA games' worth of budget so far, and the game isn't even close to finished. Is it a grift or are they just incompetent?
>OMG SPACE
Imagine getting mad at space lmao
Everyone insults me saying I hate space, but no one hates space for doing this to me
fricking die c**t
No one's 'mad at space' idiot
This, don't know what's up with normies and space, there is literally nothing interesting outside this planet.
>>How

Cult
Blackrock money

Rebel Galaxy, of course
Starfield
And still no release date in sight.
They sold a way for people to flex on poors without the ability to do so actually being out. But at least they'll feel superior in their heads.
same reason people will pay for starslop
boomers spending their retirement money on chasing the Wing Commander dragon from their youth

I'm just putting the amount of money into perspective.

Has to be money laundering. There's no reasonable explanation for this otherwise.

I mean you can call it a scam if you want but despite being slow the game is being worked on
It's gone on for so long that the graphics are close to being dated. It doesn't have anything else going for it lol. X5 will release in 2026.
Does it still run like shit?
Of course, full economic simulations aren't cheap, get a better COU and fast DDR5.
5 year should be limit for indie studios otherwise class auction lawsuit wins automatically
