Star Citizen unleashes the new AEGIS Eclipse stealth bomber, while the crowd funding total passes $150 million.
Another year has passed for Cloud Imperium Games and its growing space simulator, Star Citizen, and it has been a big year. The biggest ever.
"Full disclosure: the author of this article has backed Star Citizen’s crowdfunding campaign."
...and as such, he knows better than you, who have never touched the game and can only rage about things you don't know. 😌
So anyone critical of your site and it's blatant promotion of the game hasn't played the game? Yeah, okay, Abrael.
I didn't back it 14 years ago and I'm glad. That doesn't mean I haven't taken it for a spin.
Sure you have dude. Sure you have.
If you did, you'd know that there's a reason (actually many reasons) why people who actually play it regularly keep supporting it more every year, and more and more join.
And it isn't that they're all crazy and you somehow know better. 😏
Incidentally. "My site" reports on games. Star Citizen is a game. So we report about it fairly, like we do with other games. The fact that you don't like it is completely irrelevant (and also hilarious).
But hey, keep chewing on bile every time there's news about the game if that makes you happy. May as well get used to it. We're not gonna stop regardless of how much you cry, and the game certainly isn't going to disappear.
Can we stop calling it crowdfunding???? "Crowdfunding" is only valid when there's no product available for purchase.
Since popel are now able to buy a PRODUCT, it's simply called REVENUE. It's not an unreleased product anymore and hasn't been many years.
Cloud Imperium Games released Update Alpha 4.5 of the growing space simulator Star Citizen, adding a highly-anticipated feature.
It's beginning to look a lot like Griftmas.
Imagine buying in to this in your 20s and then, as you near, 40 years of age, there is still no difinitive release date for a finished game.
Even at its worst, Star Citizen is already better than the overwhelming majority of games at their best. That goes especially for the steaming pile of shit the AAA devs are turning out these days. It's ironic that people will call this game a grift and then turn around and buy the latest Call of Duty clone.
It's not ironic because I call this game a grift and I didn't buy CoD.
I spent 2025 buying and playing incredible indie games.
Today is Greycat Day at Star Citizen's Intergalactic Aerospace Expo 2955, and a new Greycat vehicle has been released.
Don't people have better things to do with their money?
The amount of money poured into this game is absurd.
Im not getting the game until at least the 4.0 update which isnt coming until next year
Hook, line and sinker.
What a joke. No sci fi epic is worth that sort of money. How much for the ship!!! Insane.
People are free to spend their money however they like, but crowdfunding is a bit of a scary practice for projects like this. It scares me to think people are willing to throw this much out there without firsthand experiencing what has materialized so far.
i had displeasure to play this game free weekend. this game has no content, boring all cuz mad people like to pay for $hit. maybe in 3 years they will shape it somehow. situacion is pay more get less. like all braindead peps du. FTP Dreadnought is much more enjoyable. i play games for 20 years now and this is just mad..
