Star citizen

[Neil]

I am looking forward to this.

from the comments under RPS`s coverage of the latest Elite dev diary, I can tell there will be severe fanboi wars between the Elite and Star Citizen crowds. 

"Yeah well it is not true that SC is only going to alpha at the end of next year, there will be single player dogfighting available soon, it will only be the persistent universe at end of next year"

and

"since SC will be done last, I am sure they will learn their lessons from X Rebirth and Elite: Dangerous, so it will be the greatest of the three!"

etc.

fanboys.. ugh.

more than enough SC people have backed Elite, and vice versa. Luckily. Ideally both of them turn out very very well

btw: take a look at this (http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1964463742/the-mandate): seems promising. Only a few more days for the Kickstarter

SO I've been poking around at this - anyone else cautiously excited?

[celedhring]

Wait, is it actually coming out?

I was cautiously exited about a year ago.  Now this is just some game I used to know.

I bought a founders pack back in 2013.... I'll be a bit more excited about it in 2020.

This game, I mean the promise of a game, is the main reason I don't even look at crowd funding entertainment projects anymore.  On the bright side, I started looking at crowd funding science projects

I don't get it. The game has not even been released yet. What if it is good? Granted I don't know how much money you sank into it.

Even science projects might take a few years to complete CC

lol  software crowdfunding.  Ponzi will always find his suckers.

Every game I have funded has come out and been great

Well ok most of InXile's games are highly flawed but still a lot of fun.

But at least with science, I am happy to pay for the process.  And if the game is good  I will purchase it.  If it is never released, I will have saved that money.  I didn't put any money into it.  It seemed pretty obvious it was going this way from the start.

Going which way?

I refuse to crowd fund anything.
