Wait, people are still dumping money into this?
It'll release ANY DAY NOW. -The idiots that keep giving RSI money
It released years and years ago. You realize that, right? That it’s playable… and people like it?
No it entered into alpha about 10 years ago. Not even beta, it's alpha, there is barely any gameplay to it.
I've seen grey box proof of concept pieces with more functionality
A lot had changed in 10 years lmao
No it didn't.
Uh oh looks like you are not following the hive mind of the sub! It's sad but funny how little people know about SC but still insist they know its a scam when all they know is what they read from hit piece articles. I can't wait for sc 4.0 server meshing is such a game changer
how dare you come to our echo chamber with your "facts", we need to repeat the clickbait headlines and nothing else!
The game is not released.
This is just debating definitions. They release playable builds regularly but it's still in alpha.
Exactly, the game isn't released yet lol
It's almost never worth discussing star citizen with haters, they just love to hate they don't care about nuance. The hate is the bandwagon and they get to feel smarter than other people for being on the "right side."
Nothing will change their mind until the game is declared 1.0 complete and then they'll act like they never hated the game and they just wanted to wait for release.
It's odd how so many people seem to take it personally when someone says something good about SC
I think it has turned into a sunk cost fallacy for so many now. They put so much money into it they can't afford for it to fail/not continue.
Why is it so hard for people to imagine that there are players who like the game as it is and see value in buying ships? After 10 years of development, people have a pretty good idea of what they are getting into.
If people were smart and had good ideas of what they were getting into, no scams would exist, ever.
lol
Sure, and people spend tons of money and time on gacha mobile games. Doesn't mean that they haven't been scammed.
But you could play it again in a new ship
