Thanks Wotthe!
I'd say I feel it's worth a lot considering I've been enjoying it the most than other games.
I don't felt it's hard to get at all. I guess kinda like Dark Souls, you need to go into it with the right mindset (learning involves trial & error).
As for the time or money it's taking it's not something I care about. I enjoy what's available, and since there's always new stuff being release it makes it easy.
In an effort to make it relatable.
Q: If Frontier released a DLC with ship interiors today would you spend energy complaining about how long it took or would you be playing it?
Imagine you're out in a planet just left your DBS doing a mission in a planetary outpost and you look up and there's a Conda floating above and you can just fly your ship and land inside it and then fly the Conda.
Picking another post from Elite here:
Compare that video to a SC flying one and you can see the differences in scale and entertaining.
Gamers who pretends to care about how much it took or costed are just using a game to roleplay as paladin of video-games. That's their jist, their hobby I guess.
Nobody here cared about Frontier finances before or after Odyssey
As for why players keeping with support of Star Citizen! Can you blame them? When there's nothing close to providing close to it's gameplay? Let's face it even if you don't want to. Despite all Bugs and Warts it still is able to provide moments of great gaming experience.
Personally, I enjoy it's graphics / art direction way more than in NMS, SE, Starfield, Elite etc. SC is open universe full PVPVE free 4 all with a hundred + ships to experience with no grind required. There's quite the variety of planets and moons and are all landable. Also, most importantly. The freedom of gameplay options along with the strong social aspect that drives uncertainty keeps me coming back and many others alike.
When you're having fun playing games you won't feel the need to waste time hating on them as it's a waste of gaming time.
As for the criticism I think it's just cope mechanism. Some people feel that affiliation to Elite more than reason, so anything they feel that might jeopardize it, is the enemy to put down. So they prefer to pretend there's no progress, just bugs.
It's why you had people saying that the tech they are developing would never be possible yet they keep delivering.
Yet, now. We're playing in 30 FPS servers with 600 players while before It was in 5-10 FPS servers with 50 people.
Recently happened with Pyro and Server Meshing. Some here haven't come about stating they were wrong unsurprisingly.
So yeah, might be a bit controversial around here but Star Citizen in it's buggy alpha stage (it's worst) is still able to provide amazing gaming moments that make it worth coming back. That make all other similar games redundant. And yes. that includes Elite. Which funnily enough is perfectly is showcased in this thread activity.
