I wonder what the topics of conversations are during these festivities.

Citizen 1: It’s so awesome being here and tracking down Cloud Imperium employees on the floor of the convention! Weird how security was right behind them. They must have hired personal bodyguards for their entourage and to fend off any Goons.

Citizen 2: Yeah! I can’t believe I spent [amount] to do this and get a [perfunctory Aegis pin]!

Citizen 3: No doubt! They let us spend money to test their game AND follow them around the world!

Citizen 1: Not to mention subscriptions!

Citizen 2: Absolutely! So I’m buying the 890 Jump so I can be one fo the first to test it out.

Citizens 1 thru 13: Me too!

[drinks arrive and people are stoked, wondering if their Aegis badges are a reference to a minesweeper or a mine layer ship in some upcoming concept sale]

Citizen 1: So, uh, after this is CitCon. Do you think we’ll actually get the game next year?

Citizens 2 thru 13: Stop with your FUD! They’ve made TONS of progress this year so there’s no reason to doubt that we’ll get… ummm … info. Of some kind. That implies stuff.

Citizen 1: I’m going to the back of the table to take a picture of our awesome group. I guess the woman at the far end can stay in the shot.

I think there are like 4 women in there. Curious if they were smart and just went along for the beer and food or if there really are that many easily fooled backers among women around Cologne. Statistically, there should be a lot fewer real morons among women.

You know it's low effort when they haven't even decided on what the in-game plushie is supposed to be yet.

The plushie is TBA because it will be the unannounced ~$1000 ship they sell at Citcon every year.

It's possible, for sure, but I feel like that would be too sensible for CIG. It would be more their style to have it be some trivial thing, or that stupid Star Kitten

This is CIG. There would be a window copy/pasted from Google Image Search of some popular malware, with CIG's bank account clumsily edited in (possibly with green pixels instead of blue.) Nothing on the drive will actually be encrypted, and the warning screen will somehow crash.

Reactions are how you know, deep down, what someone's real opinion is, no matter what they try to convince themselves and others it is. We know in our heart of hearts that this tire fire, although never producing a quality game, can go on forever, so we know the site going down is a glitch. The backers panic because, deep deep down, they're scared shitless.

It is self awareness but not of the kind you are thinking of.

Montoya is simply acknowledging CIG´s marketing meany "ploy" to lure backers to spend more. Because marketing ploys are always meany. He just honestly thinks that that is all this is. Since all marketing ploys are meany, including normal ones, SC is also therefore a good and normal project.
