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.
Oh but you don't understand, this game is taking a long time to finish. That's totally worth aaaaallll these circle jerk posts and vitriolic responses. It's like ten holocausts wrapped in a 9/11. Also, some rich people voluntarily gave them money. That's evil because reasons. Also, a not rich person spent all of their life savings on pretend space ships an regretted it. That's the games fault though, also because reasons.
Everyone has to know how much they hate Star Citizen. It's vital to engage with every article and post about a game they don't play or like because that's how kind, normal, mature, not weird people act. They hate other games too and generally ignore them, but this one feels good to hate loudly and publicly beyond any other game, so it must be true. It's not weird at all to bully people for having fun because the internet says their game is taking a long time.
The fact that riling people up by spreading misinformation makes tabloids money is not relevant to the situation. The people playing the game are wrong about their own experiences. The internet can never be wrong, the hive mind is always correct.
