Why do you need to publicly hate at all? These people are enjoying a toy they aren't supposed to so now everyone has to hear your feelings on it? Y'all are nuts. Ignore the game if you don't like it like you do with every other game you don't like.

The haters can silence themselves by shutting up and touching grass. It's a videogame, not a genocide.

I posted that video because it was the first one I found, it's not a grand conspiracy to trick you, jesus. Get over yourself. Watch the actual live one then, I don't care. Still looks like a fun game.

Lol, one of us certainly has been lied to. Your last point is blatantly false, your first is based on your guess about how AAA game design works. Maybe it does take 3 years with a game this big, I don't know. I'll trust the many, many game devs who actually play the game and roll their eyes at comments like yours.

I've actually played the game, bought it and have no regrets. Hundreds of hours, new friends, new experiences. You passively absorbed the groupthink. I don't care if it ever finishes, I've gotten more than enough fun per dollar out this game already. Cry about it if you want, just do it quietly.

Oh but you don't understand, this game is taking a long time to finish. That's totally worth aaaaallll these circle jerk posts and vitriolic responses. It's like ten holocausts wrapped in a 9/11. Also, some rich people voluntarily gave them money. That's evil because reasons. Also, a not rich person spent all of their life savings on pretend space ships an regretted it. That's the games fault though, also because reasons.

Everyone has to know how much they hate Star Citizen. It's vital to engage with every article and post about a game they don't play or like because that's how kind, normal, mature, not weird people act. They hate other games too and generally ignore them, but this one feels good to hate loudly and publicly beyond any other game, so it must be true. It's not weird at all to bully people for having fun because the internet says their game is taking a long time.

The fact that riling people up by spreading misinformation makes tabloids money is not relevant to the situation. The people playing the game are wrong about their own experiences. The internet can never be wrong, the hive mind is always correct.

So? A bunch a rich people voluntarily funding game development isn't some moral failing, it means they don't have to act like EA and Ubisoft to make a AAA game and I can get in for a good price. Attracting capitalist investors, as is traditional, is genuinely much worse. I paid $45 and have access to all the same content as the whales. I have hundreds of hours in game. If someone stupidly spends their life savings on pretend spaceships and regrets it, it's not on Star Citizen.

It's not like everyone has been tricked for ten years, we know what we buy when we buy it.

Squadron 42 is feature complete and is in optimization and polish phase. 30-40 hour campaign. It looks amazing. This was released this weekend, played live not prerecorded.
