If you want to play a space flight combat game, Everspace 1 and 2 have both come out in less time than Star Citizen, and I'd bet my life Everspace 3 will also be out before Star Citizen.

I think you meant Squadron 42.

Star Citizen is an MMO while Everspace and Squadron 42 are single player games.

Yeah but the doesn’t make OP wrong, the devs said in 2016 that sq42 was essentially down and needed some final polish and now we learn it won’t be ready till 2026.

Safe bet squadron 42 will miss yet another promised date

You're misunderstanding what I am saying.

I wasn't saying that OP was wrong about delays. I was pointing out that if you're trying to compare space games, you need to compare the proper game type.

Comparing Everspace to Squadron 42 makes sense because they're both single player games.

On the other hand, trying to tell people to play Everspace instead of Star Citizen would be like trying to tell people that they should play Skyrim instead of World of Warcraft. One is a single player game while the other game is an MMO.
