You would be highly amused to know that the game's creator, Derek Smart, has written extensively against Star Citizen:

A con man knows better than anyone how to spot a fellow con man, as they say.

Oh gawd, I remember that. Fortunately I managed to return it for a refund.

It's easy (and somewhat justified) to criticize the creators here, but I don't think they're the root problem. The root problem is that gaming media and wishful-thinking funding platforms like Kickstarter reward insanely ambitious elevator pitches over more modest but achievable ones.

Seems like BC3000AD managed to spend less time in development, somehow! Surprising, I always got the vibe it had been in development hell for a decade or more
