And "100 developers working on it" doesn't mean much when they're unpaid and there's no lower limit on how much they have to actually contribute.

In fact, it often seems like the more unpaid contributors in an unstructured organization the worse the product. Like Starbound or Fallout: The Frontier.

Ugh Starbound was supposed to be so sick. That might be the only time I actually bought into early access hoping for more and got let down.

I had a lot of high hopes for what it was striving to be, but it kind of fizzled out and never really excelled at any particular thing. Not saying it's necessarily bad, I just remember being so hyped about it.
