Attention midlife crisis dads who hate brown people being in their video games! Chris Roberts is in trouble and he needs you to buy another $60,000 ship jpeg! Just grab your mom's credit card and enter the 16 digit number, expiration date, and the three numbers on the back to stick it to the blue haired baristas looking to queer up your vidya games and get the win!!
Meanwhile the same chuds post FB/IG rage memes about how genZers being millionaires from OF or drug dealing while they have to work for a living only to throw money at this vaporware.
how genZers being millionaires from OF
TBF OnlyFans is the only place they interact with Gen Zers
but mom needs that credit card to pay for the gift cards for the fellow on the phone who is trying to remove her linux mac virus
one employee down already
Every time I hear about Star Citizen, I feel better about buying into Elite: Dangerous.
Star Citizen is the one thing that can make an EVE Online player feel superior
I feel like i should just consistently post myself playing No Man's Sky in Star Shitizen forums
Too bad Elite forgot to bring it's game design to 21st century.
I had fun with Elite before covid, but the direction it was developed in kinda killed the vibes for me.
How the hell does a game that isn't even released have an annual convention?
So people can show off their Jpegs that cost more than a car, and so Chris Robert's can pat them on the back and ask for more
It has been playable for years.
I love the double scam going on: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/star-citizen-dev-is-forcing-employees-to-work-seven-days-a-week-report/1100-6526879/
The stated goals of this crunch time are to finish Star Citizen patch 3.24.2 and "the Squadron 42 demo showcase for Chapter 1." The report also notes that employees were pre-approved for 12 hours of TOIL (time off in lieu) per week, but only if the workers are still employed by Cloud Imperium Games when Squadron 42 ships. If any employees leave ahead of time, they will not be able to take their accumulated TOIL.
Squadron 42 was originally announced in 2012 with a 2014 release date. Four years ago Chris Roberts wasn't even willing to show off preliminary footage of it.
TOIL just sounds ominous on its own, never mind the shitty conditions surrounding it
“the Squadron 42 demo showcase for Chapter 1.”
So after 12 years of development they don't even have
Demo of
Showcase of
Chapter 1
Look they had to wait until they added corpse details up before they could do anything with the single player game
