The developers of space sim Star Citizen are now talking about the 1.0 launch being within sight, some 12 years after the game launched its first crowdfunding drive.
The discourse here is disappointing considering this isn’t reddit and you expect people to be smarter. Go download and play it right now if you need to form an opinion, because the language you’re all using clearly indicates you haven’t.
Play it so you can give it its valid criticism instead of parroting an internet lynch mob from 10 years ago.
See, the problem is that’s not a criticism if you play it. It’s playable now so why slap a 1.0 label on it until it’s ready. Real criticism would be something like ‘updates are too slow’, ‘shop weapons are way too expensive’, ‘it takes way too long to get to my ship’, ‘server wipes are too extreme and I should be able to keep expensive ships’, ‘basic mechanics are not maintained and bug free enough between feature updates’ <- all criticism mine by the way.
But games journalists are the most ethical and truthful of all journalists and definitely haven’t been misrepresenting this project to drum up drama and clicks for years. It’s just a coincidence that Star Citizen drama makes their shareholders richer.
No need for an informed opinion here, I will keep the opinion The Escapist and the Reddit Hive Mind told me to have, they’re never wrong. Derek Smart? More like Derek Genius.

played it. it’s no way near a full 1.0 release…not even a Beta 1.0 release.

Why are you even playing if you didn’t like it
