Where it’s at.
Well, if Digital Fuckery had ANY credibility, this definitely torpedoes it.

Nothing in any Scam Citizen trailer or big public demo has been implemented in the 10-year old alpha disguised as a game. All of the vertical slices have been total bullshit to an even greater degree than the rest of that whole Ponzi scheme!

I think the game is coming along fine, over 300k daily players, only a few games do more then that.

11 years in alpha, constantly reworking assets, selling macro transactions costing hundreds, even thousands of dollars THAT AREN'T EVEN IN THE GAME YEARS LATER, and not even having a working flight model IN A SPACEFILGHT GMAE after over a decade isn't fine.

They have collected almost a billion dollars and haven't come close to delivering an actual game yet. It is a scam.

That tech deep dive was truly incredible, but I can't say whether Star Citizen will actually scratch any of the role playing itches I expect from a Bethesda game.

Imagine being blow away from a game that sell jpeg or the ships to users because you can’t play them.

Welcome to the 11 years scam.

People used to call it scam citizen but I have to say That when my brother showed me it, it really impressed me. The ship models are incredible tbh.

I cant comment directly on Starfield from experience....but what I hear here is genuine disappointment. Unfortunately for Bethesda and their Fans.
