    It’s less a game and more a sim. They’ll not fix broken box missions, but spend weeks on fart mechanics. Either they are incompetent or intentionally stalling. I personally believe the latter.

    They don’t intend to leave alpha because they’re making money from ship sales. It’s pretty, but it’s not fun when you run, and boom, you dead. 45 mins to get back there.

    Even scams have valid products behind them.

      They can still sell ships after releasing the game. Sure there will be a bit of a shitstorm they promised not to do that but their cult will survive it.

          My guess is that if they get there (a very big if) then they will just copy a microtransactions model that every online game has.
