    Star Citizen has been in development for 10 years, Bethesada said Starfield was 25 years in the making, so it all adds up to me.

    In all honestly though it's because the idea for Star Citizen is impossible. I don't think Christ Roberts is a con artist, just moronic. It's like if you had given Peter Molyneux infinite money to make project ego. If would never happen, but he's too moronic to realize it can't be done, so he'd just keep it in development for decades trying to pull off some miracle. I think that's exactly what's happened with Star Citizen. If they just pulled the plug and polished and built on what they actually had we'd get a good game. Sure it wouldn't be what was promised, but that's fine because what was promised was moronic impossible bullshit. The ship sales have kind of shot that idea in the foot though, he has too many angry whales to appease that think one day there 1000 crew hospital shop will be out and have a purpose. Seriously, in what fricking universe would a fricking massive hospital ship have any kind of fricking gameloop? These people are moronic.

      An abandoned, derelict one for other players to explore and get spooked by muh liminal space.
      Hospital Ship owner puts some items around the hospital and the player who finds the most in the easter egg hunt gets an extra hour in the ballpit.

        They were just referring a cancelled game called The 10th Planet. They haven't spent the last 25 years making this, don't be ridiculous.

        >Bethesada said Starfield was 25 years in the making
        Morrowind released in 2002, so if we consider Starfield development to begin at the inception of the Gamebryo engine, it has been in development for 21 years. That is the absolute best argument you're going to make, and it's a pretty shitty one.

        >Bethesada said Starfield was 25 years in the making
        You are probably joking here but in the event that you're not, Todd didn't literally mean that Starfield has been in development for 25 years. Saying "it's been forever since we made any new IP, this was 25 years in the making" just means they've slowly been forming ideas and concepts for Starfield for a long time. Actual development for the game started in the early 2010s.

        >Bethesada said Starfield was 25 years in the making

    Star Citizen was so successful initially that it could no longer fail for lack of support. It's like those Patreon projects where the author continually demonstrates incompetence but continues to make thousands of dollars every month. The project was so successful initially that it managed to filter out the kind of obsessed fans who'll never open their eyes.

    The idea of cultism is quite appropriate, actually. Cults are not good at brainwashing, what they are good at is filtering out the most obsessed people. After a while, 90% of people gave up on the cult, but the 10% that stayed are the ones who'll never give up hope, no matter how clear the evidence is that they are supporting a charlatan.

    Starfield team is lead by an idea guy that has a history of making games but realizing his team has a hard time implementing all those ideas effectively. At the end of the day though, the game still gets made even if they have to abandon some ideas and half ass others.

    Star Citizen team is lead by an idea guy that has a history of having a hard time making games to feature those ideas. He's so obsessed with those idea, and new ones that pop up, that he is constantly expanding the company to chase those ideas instead of laying down a foundation and building around it. I don't know if Star Citizen will ever be complete, but Roberts is more concerned about having a company and staff to chase his ideas than completing the game.

    >In 1997, Chris Roberts began work on a vision he had since he first conceived Wing Commander. He wanted to realize a virtual galaxy, whose systems execute their own programs regardless of the players' presence; cities would be bustling with transports and each world's weather changes on its own time. Commodity prices in each star system would fluctuate, according to the activities of the computer controlled traders, who import and export goods. Roberts envisioned thousands of players simultaneously interacting with and influencing this world through a unique and intuitive user interface never seen before in other games. Each player could pursue a quest set up for their character, and join other players to attempt other missions together without needing to exit the game and start a new mode of play. Artificial intelligence would fly the players' spacecraft, letting them concentrate on combat or other tasks. Roberts intended the cutscenes and gameplay visuals to be of equal quality so players would be unable to distinguish between the two.[34][35] By the end of 1997, it was officially announced that Freelancer was in the early stages of a two-and-a-half-year development schedule.[36]

    Anything that costs money is reviled here, whether that's nice computers, cars, or even a game concept.
    I only click on threads like this to read sour grapes posters larping as concern trolls.
    Really what it comes down to is whether or not you have enough income to not care about whatever you do with your spending money.
    The average Ganker poster is so poor they b***h about 20 dollars much less larger sums of money.
