Wait why the hell did I think they've in development for nearly 20 years lol
Announced in 2012
I backed it in 2015 and suspected it was a scam then, with most advice online being that you should only buy it if you think you'll enjoy what's already out.
I think the saddest thing is that they have a lot of genuine ambition, and we're trying truly innovative things a decade ago like a persistent world space "from pupil to planet" weather simulations that were incredible, and more. But as time has gone on, the bar has risen and everything that they had that was ahead of the curve has been done.
To be fair, some of the systems they have are not possible in other games. Not even Starfield came close.
