    Just some context: from 2017 until last year they had the majority of the development staff working on SQ42, which they declared feature complete last year and now we have a planned release of 2026. Most of the development staff has been moved back to Star Citizen which is finally seeing a lot of tech come online that was promised years ago. Definitely has a ton of scope creep, and it’ll probably never have an official release, but it’s definitely a cool tech demo that you can play.

      12+ years

      hundreds of milllions of dollars invested

      65+ million dollars in stretch goal funding

      All that and you get:

      a cool tech demo that you can play (when it’s not broken or wiped)
