I've resigned to put Star Citizen in the same basket as Half Life 3, and a Knights of the Old Republic remake.

Love the concept and commitment to the ideas, but I don't actually expect to be able to play it.

    You can play the alpha if you please

    For some definitions of “play”, absolutely!

    • First time I played it, I got stuck in the starting room bed.
    • Second time, I fell through the bed.
    • Third time, I fell through my ship.
    • Fourth time, I fell through the space station.

    Yep, this is definitely a game you "play" and not a walking case study of the sunk cost fallacy. /s

    I'm guessing you haven't played it in a few years.

    I backed it on Kickstarter back in the day, so I think I'm only in for like $40 or something like that. I played around with the Alpha for a bit, but yeah now it just kind of sits there in the backlog.

    If they ever release Squadron 42 I'll play it, and if not... well I'm sure I've wasted $40 on dumber stuff.
