      The people who are playing Star Citizen are not the same people who are voting for Trump…weird comparison to attempt.

            I wouldn’t call it stupid to enjoy whatever SC has to offer, but I would call it stupid to spend more than 60 bucks on the game at this point…

          it’s an interesting take to defend, I would argue that the people still calling it a scam are more trump supporter like, as they are a group held together by a need to attack things they disagree with, based on some nebulous understanding of the evils it entails

      “Scam” implies that they’re not delivering the product, and they are, as in you can actually go and play it. There is actually a fair bit to do. Not overly exciting non-stop heroics, but the game is trying to simulate what life in space would be like, and does a pretty good job of it so far.

        Are they delivering the product? I was a kickstarter backer, and still don’t have the singleplayer campaign that was promised. How long ago was that?
