"Pyro," the second star system of Star Citizen (out of one hundred originally promised as initial kickstarter goals a decade ago), was itself promised years ago and has once again been delayed until next year. Again.
Also, as a partial explanation to the baffling fact that this grift keeps breaking its old funding records year after year, new information reveals that there are less overall users than previous years, but those that are left are spending more and more.
The internal contradictions are intensifying. 
Chris Roberts has a cult of personality around him, makes amazing bullshit promises, and aging gamedads that are obsessed with avoiding woke see an old bloated grifter like him as some kind of savior.
Some of it is that the remaining devotees have already put so much money into the grift and don't want to feel like fools, so they put in more over time instead.
It's kinda shocking that he still has a fanbase, he made some pretty good space dogfighting games 30 years ago and not much else. It's also pretty much been established that the X-Wing and TIE Fighter games were far superior in everything except presentation.
Roberts obviously wanted to be in Hollywood, not designing games, that's why he shoved as many actors and as much FMV as he could into his games when it became possible. The irony being that when he did make it to Hollywood, everything he was involved in was a failure.
You wrote a post that said pretty much everything I wanted to say in a post about this just now. I've been replaced!
