It's Daikatana all over again. And if history is anything to go by, once development goes into this kind of hell there's little chance they'll get out of it.
Well, 20 years after fans decided to mod Daikatana to be playable and almost fun. Maybe that'll happen to Star Citizen in 20 or so years. :lol:
Sooo around 2050 then.

By that time, Chris Roberts will be charging fees from people wishing to pass their virtual moon land deeds to their children so the wait for the perfect waifu game will continue.

Well if that whole Kickstarter craze has told us one thing, it's that you need someone breathing down your neck to get shit done. Ceativity needs constraints in terms of time and money to really flourish.
Not in this case. Because as far as I can see they are extremely creative.
Even Victor Lustig would be impressed.

YES!
If I was not able to get into or play Elite Dangerous because I couldn't figure out the controls or have a desire to remap 80 gazillion controls would I have the same issue with this game?

Lets not summon him, as I'll have to continue the tedious usenet discussion about why BC3000AD was shit, whether his PhD was real, and why he's never been able to adequately replicate his early success self-publicity.

My own pet theory as to why he's gone after Chris Roberts so aggressively is that he sees rather too much of himself in Roberts for comfort, and wants to destroy, or at least bury, that aspect of his personality by shitting on Chris's manifest accomplishments at every opportunity. If he turns off the baleful gaze then attention focuses back on himself, and he doesn't really have much to back up his own claims of greatness.

Put them both in a room and lock the door. I'd pay to watch that debate.

If anyone is interested in watching the Citizencon livestream, prepare your wallet. You have to buy a digital ticket to see the full stream. Not joking

https://www.robertsspaceindustries.com/citizencon/faq

What is a digital ticket?
Digital tickets include live streaming access to all presentations, exclusive digital items given away at CitizenCon, including an in-game wearable duster jacket, access to purchase exclusive CitizenCon merchandise, plus an Imperator subscription for the month of October. (Subscription included will begin on October 9th and expire on November 9th)

Why do I have to pay for the livestream?
The scope of this year’s event, plus, the staffing and technical requirements of streaming two parallel stages, necessitates a ticket price. We strive to provide a digital experience that is as satisfying and comprehensive as possible.

Yep, this game is totally not a scam. lol What a shitshow. If you want a laugh, go check SC subreddit

They are running out of money really fast,and trying to raise new ones desperately. I wouldn't be surprised if they burn out in the next half a year.
