    To have spent that much money and yet not have anything really resembling a game, just a glorified tech demo, is pretty sad.

      I have a friend who just got into Star citizen and I just don’t understand why. There are actual games to play.

        I know what you mean, but even the idea of “getting into Star Citizen” doesn’t make sense to me because, well…what in the world is there really to get into beyond the few demos they released?

        The thing is, there is no “actual game to play” that fulfills the dream that star citizen promises.

        Well, at least maybe until starfield comes out.

        I think you’re thinking of Starfield, because Star Citizen is nowhere near done. They only have one solar system, with only a few people per instance, terrible optimization, very little features or anything to do, etcetera. It’s very immersive (aside from all the glitches and low FPS) but there’s not much actual content.
