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!

I could have sworn when I pledged in 2014-2016 (can't recall at the moment) I pledged cause Squadron 42 was hyped to be released in a much shorter time. I'm not complaining, I spent some more cash on it, but I thought I was going to get a fancier single player space game before now. I loved Wing Commander as a kid, even had to get a tech to figure out the highmem.sys and possibly other optimization in the windows .bat files to even play so wanted to play the newest of Chris Rpberts.

Of course maybe I misunderstood at the time and it wasn't supposed to be coming that soon, which is why I'm not bothered even if it passed, I think they are trying but got into feature creep. I haven't logged on in over a year now but I keep an eye on things to try when it seems interesting and get use out of my HOTAS.
