    Not even close.
    MMO's have really badly designed and boring gameplay systems. While an action game with bad gameplay is a bad game, no matter how solid the rest is.

    The best action games take that premise and take it to eleven. Where a single bad decision is enough to get you fucked.

    Depends on the MMO, there are only really 2 old ones that I care about but nothing beats them, action or otherwise. If a bad decision fucks you in a game then I consider that tactical combat, even if it plays like an action game. My problem with pew pew space games is that there are no decisions like that. You shoot at the box, good aim and it dies, bad aim and it dies slower. That's about all there is. I suspect that is how this game will be. What I described in the last post of an MMO would be awesome in a space game. And in fact I just started Starsector which seems like it might be along those lines.

    A little 2d space game probably made by 1 dude, and I bet it ends up being far better combat than this 5 zillion dollar mess.

    It is. If there is more to combat in basic mindless pew pew space action game, tell me what it is. It's the main reason I don't play Elite or X3.

    I haven't kept up on any developments regarding SC for a long time. But what's the current state of things? Release soon, soonish, never?

    After spending at least 1000USD you are given access to bug-free feature-complete version of game. Which cannot be shared by anyone (you have to sign special EULA), that is why you do not see people talking about it. Only insiders know. But really, what is there to lose if you just buy some awesome ships to your game? Go for it. I suggest going all the way. Mortgage if need be.

    Incorrect. EULA is no longer needed as special Wizard will appear and put geas on you.

    Give it a year or more and we'll have a decent prototype. Then next 3-4 years will probably be building pre-alpha and pre-alpha can begin in earnest after 6 years.

    At which point they will switch to a 128-bit engine to keep up with technology, with support for UHD textures, raytracing GPU, 16k screens, holographic VR, quantum chip for AI... (non exhaustive list).

    It will be ready just in time to be played during the trip to Mars on an Elon Musk rocket. :P

    I really enjoy his Sunk Galaxy Cost series, but did he really have to go poor women and journos in gaming at 11 minutes in...

    I can't despute the facts of the series. But I can despute using those facts to create a skewed narrative that favours whatever bullshit you want to peddle. Bearing in mind the person who made this is yet another high paying backer who got salty that Chris sempai wasn't listening to him.

    Watched the whole thing now, and boy some stuff. How Sandi are using backer money to stage her own career, the house for 4 million and that they no longer show up in videos or events anymore, distancing themselves from the project. Gonna be interesting when it finally implodes.

    Glad to finally see some content get added, shame it is harvesting resources which is the worst part of any MMO.

    Yeah it's like this guy is naive to believe all this BS about women being treated badly in gaming and not think those same types of accusations of misogyny and sexism can just be leveled at him to destroy his reputation.

    Maybe it was to shield himself somehow, considering his whole video was basically about a woman in gaming, I don't know.
