I'm not believing it's coming until it's out. It's been too long and Roberts gaslights people every few years to keep the money flowing.

I really don't think this is ever going to release.

Even as someone who is legitimately excited for this game to come out, this reaction is so completely justified. CIG have only themselves to blame for all the skepticism at this point.

Of course, they're also continuing to make money hand over fist, so I guess they don't really care...

Can't say for certain, but I think voice acting contracts with famed actors were already announced. So the money has likely already been sent out and something will be released, one way or another.
