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
After that much funding it would have been cheaper to build a real space program.
Yes but would a real space program have you fall through the floor of your toilet and spin off out into space? I don't think so.
Give me an extra trillion and I can make it happen for you.

$40 worth of the right mushroom variety can get you the same effect.
How many mushrooms can I get in exchange for these stupid spaceship jpegs?
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.
Same boat.
