It is, of course, worth noting that devs at CDPR were already crunching to meet that previous deadline. Today’s announcement doesn’t mention crunch, but I’d be surprised if staff weren’t in for another three weeks of gruelling conditions to get this thing out the door.

Star citizen is not a traditional triple A game and all with the outrageous crowdfunding stuff, and it's not on consoles so the market reach is not as wide. It also "got released" in the last decade, the 2010s, which ironically is the same decade as Duke Nukem Forever, while cyberpunk is releasing in the 2020s

It's in alpha beta playtest stage 300™️. It's why I put "got released" in quotation marks
