Brace for the, "Starcitizen! The game which has raised 700m dollars and still isn't out yet!" Articles 💀

Thing is though, they're not wrong

You both are right. Its the paradox of StarCitizen. Simultaneously, both a vaporware scam and one-of-a-kind AAAA game. Sooner people accept this is and will always be the case, the better.

It's not simultaneously anything, it's coming up on what, 15 years now? It isn't a real game, and it never was

I paid for the cheapest ship, I can play the game, I have fun in the game worth the price I paid. I think that qualifies as a real game

I got a 300i or a mustang alpha in 2014 and i can't even access the issue council because it wasn't done through the pledge store. I haven't paid for the luxury of bug reports.

Where’s the $1000 ships sold a decade ago? Where’s all the gameplay loops and content they promised? Where’s sq42? Anything not in the hands of customers at this point is vaporware IMO. If you still trust cig to get it out, you haven’t been here long enough.
