I expect to see many videos exploring the failures of this project in the future, maybe a few lawsuits. It would be a miracle if a good complete game worth this investment was created.

Eh, I think CIG has enough true believers buying JPEGs for this to continue pretty much until the whales die of old age or just run out of money to send him. I wouldn't be shocked if we're still talking about this in another decade, except this time it's $1.2 billion in funding.

After a couple trillions in funding maybe we will see a true 1 to 1 to real life physics engine lol

Not gonna lie. I was a huge fan of wing commander and freelancer. I backed this early, but for a while now I’ve given up on ever expecting anything from this project.

I’m not sure it’s actually a scam, but probably a vision that got away from them due to feature creep. At this point I don’t even care.
