Well, I mean, I would have launched it first (as an AAA game), but I'm no game developer. 🤷 And neither are they, from the looks of it. Good at perpetually raking in money for himself and his family, though!

The phrase "AAA game/developer" has lost all meaning for me over the years. I just can't drop the clichéd $60+ on these titles anymore, especially with quality and support waning. I don't see this game being any different; the writing's on the wall.

Well, see, with Star Citizen, you buy it to have an unreleased game that will allow you to buy a ship for 8000 dollars that you can.. stand around inside of and look at.

Seriously, This is peak gaming.. how can you losers not understand how great this is?! /s

This game is 45 dollars. It always has been. Support for it has only increased over time. Also I really don't look at CIG as a AAA dev, whomever said that forgot what a Kickstarter/self funded game is.
