Every time I think I understand people, somebody else I know asks if I've heard about Star Citizen.

Like, I totally get it - four years ago. But how can people still be excited about this garbo?

There's a lot about star citizen that I don't understand. It's gotta be the most baffling video games ever made. I used to look at that train simulator with the thousands of dollars of DLC and be like "who would buy that poo poo?" Now it seems normal or even reasonable.

I don't know how they aren't into total write-off mode. How can you keep your hopes up for so long with such little payoff?

The Emotes make you invincible so this guy would be fine. Why would the friendlies be firing on a disabled ship? Why would enemies just hang out in the disabled hull cracked ship? None of this makes any sense. These people have broken brains.

God loving drat these morons like christ almighty they're being scammed to poo poo and they're loving over everyone else in the process:

1. The whole thing collapsing fucks over kickstarter/crowdfunding, even though kickstarters could easily get their money back at this point and crowdfunding in general can't really be blamed for the people who exploit it
2. Their creepy cult is making people who dissent miserable and reinforcing harmful patterns of behavior among its members
3. The entire industry is no doubt watching this and drooling at the realization of how many loving rubes there are, and how much they can actually get away with while staying 'legit'.
4. Meanwhile, 120 million dollars has been siphoned out of projects that might actually get finished, or will never get made without the money that is currently being continually dumped into the shitter.
5. This was honestly probably the space sim nerd's best chance at getting the game they wanted. E:D is a lake a mile wide and a foot deep, NMS was a meh exploration/crafting/survival game thing, EVE is, well, EVE, Space Engineers is difficult to run and has nothing to do with the things you build, KSP is neat but it's a very focused game and not the wide-spanning universe that the Star Citizen backers clearly craved, House of the Dying Sun is apparently amazing but is focused on smaller ships, PULSAR is in development, that other space ship bridge sim is meant only for LAN games. The new CoD looks nice but I don't really expect it to be more than another CoD with some railshooter segments and creative movement options in 3d environments. Dreadnought is awesome, but it's just a 5v5 arena shooter using capital ships. Dual Universe? I haven't looked into it, but does anyone think they can actually meet their goals or are they just trying to grab some of that sweet, sweet, desperate space nerd dolla? I haven't really looked into LoD so I'm not sure what it does, but I get the feeling it isn't trying to do the same thing at all.
