Developer looks out the window and sees the industry... "Guys everyone else is doing it, we need to do it too."

Scam Citizen will likely end up being the biggest gaming scam in history. Oh before I forget, here’s a new video as we pass millions more in funding. Enjoy!

Every review of this game I’ve seen is it looks stunning and runs like shit. Just what you’d expect.

Jesus, just look at the recommended articles below the comments. These guys are literally making this exact article for every million they make, it's just advertising and PR at thus point.

Start reporting these articles guys, enough is enough. #ScamCitizen

Serious question; are there a lot of wealthy people buying up items every month to fund the game, or is the community just massive enough to buy a ton of inexpensive things to keep the funds going? How is it possible for them to raise millions in a short amount of time for the last decade? Seems like they raise several million each couple of months every time we get these updates. Just a baseless theory, but what if this was some kind of money laundering scheme?

If you click on the Star Citizen hyperlink to see all Star Citizen news, they've been steadily growing the funds from 410 mil up 444 mil in a little over 3 months

I know many people in game who have spent over 1k/
I also know someone who spent around 7k. I heard theres ppl who have crossed the 15k mark.
No idea why someone would do that.

Many of them do ship meets, those ships they bring range from 400 to 900 dollars each.

The game has some serious whales.

And obviously outside investment as well i think.

At this point things have moved well past sunk cost fallacy. it has become Stockholm syndrome. The backers have become sympathetic to their money's captors. I sincerely hope it releases and is everything people want.. but... I can't see this possible living up to half a billion worth of hype.

Someone is laughing all the way to the bank.

Well I guess they couldn't have done so within the last two decades working on the game so probably it'll take another two decades

peppeaccardo31d ago

in the meanwhile they have implemented the gamers' wallet customization .... from full to empty !

RonnySins32d ago

I don’t comprehend how some people still defend this scam.

Anyone that bought Mario games for the last 30 years would also fall under this category.

Personal Hangars sound brilliant for what is shaping up to be one of the most ambitious games in the galaxy.

And worth it too, you only need to make a $10,000 donation…

..to get on the waiting list.

Knightofelemia32d ago

Just a giant blackhole simulator sucks up everything in sight really loves money from the fools.
