    I'm not sure they're going to hit their 2014 release date at this rate

        What's funny is it came up in the minecraft server about clipping through the modded trains and I instantly thought of the Star Citizen trams.

        Minecraft mods = $1 billion video game

        I gave them $200 3 or 4 years ago obama-sad

    ss overall users than previous years, but those that are left are spending more and more.

    Whales are honestly something else

    after the creators spent millions on yacht trips and vacations in bora bora (i assume) and spent months in hospitals battling their laughing-at-these-rubes related injuries, the game still only has ONE MAP?

        Looks like less content than a single system in freelancer which launched almost half a century ago

            I enjoyed Freelancer, sure it was pretty basic for a game released in 2003, but there was a serious dearth of space exploration games.

        I wonder how much of that is them using an unsuitable engine. Originally they were using whatever version of CryEngine was current in 2012, and the consensus was that it could never handle a space exploration game. They've probably gone through more engines than Daikatana at this point, though.

        boring points of interest that look like late 90s malls

        That's just Starfield except it cost $1 billion and you have to pay for a spaceship with real money.

            Do you know that Star Citizen takes place on a CryEngine map, even now, but with the physics engine spaghettified to the point of making every meter of that "tropical island" map count as a staggeringly vast distance?

            I didn't know that, I assumed that at this point they must've switched engines, but CIG's incompetence really knows no bounds.

            Is that one Wing Commander fansite guy still covering SC? The one who wore an authentic pilgrim necklace from the terrible Wing Commander movie. I think he even worked in the company at some point?

        A whole bunch of nothing between some points of interest? So unintentionally accurate to what space is like!

    People tell me hating star citizen isn't a personality trait. But it is and I even put it on my CV.

        (I was tempted early on before I knew more about it, I admit)

        I dunno what it is about my vibes detector, but I locked on to Chris Roberts being bad somewhere around 1994 when Wing Commander 3 came out. I just couldn't do cringe FMV games at the time.

    My guild used to give a Star Citizen buyer(? Player?) crap about still believing in it circa 2017. At this point it just feels bad to tease him though.

    How is Star Citizen even still a thing when Elite Dangerous has existed for years now?

        This actually fits because the only star citizen guy I know irl is also a landlord

        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.
