    Star Citizen could have reignited interest in the genre back in, oh, like 2011 but other games did that instead.

      Oh i do remember having a slight hype about it, but soon forgotten, i like this genre but it's not even a priority. I would love proper Rebel Galaxy 2 or Freelancer but with capital ships (which Rebel Galaxy exactly was to be honest). I have few interesting space sims on wishlist, but now that i looked at the dates literally all of them seems to be in dev hell, though not even ankle deep in SC-like bog.

      Breachway is supposedly releasing this month, though after multiple delays and it's a roguelike more like FTL but i played demo and it was fun.

        I admit I was interested in Star Citizen early on as an enjoyer of the old 90s Privateer game as well as Freelancer, but fortunately I never actually committed to any "pledge" amount and just watched it from afar.

        Eventually, that viewing became more schadenfreude. sicko-peepin
