    There needs to be SC anonymous meetings. “Hi I’m a SC Kickstarter backer. It’s been 10 years since I bought a ship or given Roberts money.”

    I mean two things can be true at the same time.

    It’s true that there are a lot of pc games that are trying to avoid the GTA6 release window, to the point it creates a 3 month void of games (right around christmas too!) and I suppose it’s for good reason.

    It’s also true that roberts is a scammer and you should not belive his lies because SC and S42 are scams.

      Not a complete scam, just a buggy mess caused by mismanagement and constant forced rewrites.

      Roberts micromanages every aspect of the game, but fucks off for months at a time before rejecting whatever work has been submitted to him.

      So his art teams and devs all have to twiddle their thumbs waiting on him.

      Roberts also has a habit of firing design teams and hiring on a new team to redo all the work.

      He also has a feature creep problem. Keeps adding new shit to the requirements.

      The man has never released a game on time, and the only reason he’s released anything, was a publisher stepping in and taking over.

      But yes, the ship sales are pure scam.

    As a long time backer of star citizen… this is totally bullshit. Its because the game isnt ready and we all know it. The company that will never release a full game continues its trend.

    Its BS and I have slowly stopped playing as time continues and its upsetting because I firmly believe it to be the greatest gaming experience possible for myself.

    In other news, anyone wanna help me make a massive fully immersive space Sim with thousands of ships with interiors and hundreds of star systems? Lol

    We’re beyond the pale at this point. Anyone who is feeding Chris Roberts and his fuckwads money at this point is just a fucking idiot. There will never be a game.

    Pretty sure it’s never gonna come out. I think it’s eclipsed Duke Nukem Forever at this point.
