Oh it’s not one tech demo, it’s several. They aren’t connected. If they aren’t connected it isn’t a game. People just don’t want to admit they were scammed when they “bought” that fancy ship in that “game”.
What tech demos are you referring to specifically and how are they not connected? I guess there’s flight tech, fps tech, cargo tech, economy tech, etc, but you can walk to your ship, fly off, land somewhere, shoot guys, loot some cargo, put it on your ship, fly back to a city, and sell it, all in one go. One thing that’s actually disconnected is Arena Commander, but that’s specifically for people that want more traditional, arcadey pvp.
Are you mad that parts of a game arent coded as a unified whole l? If those individual parts work, and they seem to be maintaining enough of a player base to continue funding the game, why are you actually mad? Are still trying to keep the meme of “Star Citizen Bad!” going when it is clear that the game doesn’t care what others think, the players don’t care, and no one is copying your sentiment?
I’m not mad I just don’t trust the Devs of Star Citizen. I think their monetization as a whole reeks of a scam and I don’t understand why people defend it.
I’m sure there are a lot of people that wouldn’t consider just flying around, exploring, and doing the current missions a game, but you could say something similar about early Minecraft. In sure some didn’t see the point without more structure or features, but that didn’t stop them from enjoying what was there and looking forward to the future
Early Minecraft was made by a single person and was in development for 2 years before it released (and had a fully playable game loop even before then).
SC has $700 million dollars, hundreds of devs and still hasn’t released anything as feature rich or playable as MC in 12 years. It’s fair for people to expect more at this point
It’s easy to ignore actually. Where game? I don’t care how pretty your tech demo is. Where game?
I was playing the game/tech demo yesterday. It seems to be there and I was having a lot of fun.

That must be tough.

I’m not comparing their scale, just the ability to enjoy something without it seeming like there’s much there to others.
