I'm not, I'm calling them capitalist, investor run businesses, which they are. Inventing controversy is an ancient, reliable way to make money.
I'm calling star citizen haters a bunch of gullible cynics. There's an emotional element in people's need to hate star citizen. I think they've just been burned so much, any time something cool is promised, they automatically assume the worst. If Star Citizen delivers, it would be very, very cool and the hate is proportional. I'm having a great time in Star Citizen with a whole bunch of people right now. Anything else is just noise, be it promises from the devs or internet articles or salty people who can't just ignore this game if they don't like it like an adult.
Every comment in these posts seems to be either "StarCitizen killed my family and dishonored my temple" or "can't believe people let SC kill their family and dishonor their temple."
Same old hate without real substance.
Chris can shut up the haters just fine by finishing the game.
Why do you need to publicly hate at all? These people are enjoying a toy they aren't supposed to so now everyone has to hear your feelings on it? Y'all are nuts. Ignore the game if you don't like it like you do with every other game you don't like.
The haters can silence themselves by shutting up and touching grass. It's a videogame, not a genocide.
Broken promise after promise, missed release date after release date, broken feature after broken feature after every rework
it’s clearly a fucking 13-year-old scam, it’ll be goddamn voting age before it’s released.
