Well eventually buyers got what they paid for. If no preorders and such, who knows maybe no updates....
Send your detes and I'm sending the millions.
There is no point to preorders. It's that simple. No updates? Bad financial planning, bad release, bad sales. Preorders don't fix anything. They only do encourage bad behaviour of the sellers.
Usually I'm late buyer, aka even if game is good I wait for some time to get it with discount
Yeah, maybe even the complete edition with all DLC. That's the best, you get to pick the price, too, often. I get impulse buy, often. Game just releases, looks decent, doesn't look to buggy and I wants it. Precious. Doesn't always go well - member Evolve?Usually I'm late buyer, aka even if game is good I wait for some time to get it with discount
If you include a shameless ripoff of a famous IP and claim it as your own invention - and completely fail to deliver anything after a decade - I’ll buy two!
Special premium tier offering? Can I pay with my newly invented cryptocurrency?
Expensively.
If you believe that, you really don't know human nature. The reason Frontier had to iterate crime & punishment several times is that they (naively) thought people would play cricket in a multiplayer environment, when really all they wanted to do is kick sand in other people's faces.
Well, normally when you do a solo mode, you basically make a solo game. However, CIG have revealed that that is not a good idea, and what you first do is make a multiplayer game, and then, having separated client and server side, combine them on a single machine to create a single player game with split client/server model!
It truly has never been done before, and SQ42 will be so much better for it!
It really does.
Waiting for CR to sell the IP rights to Turbulent... oh, wait, CR already sold the IP to CIG for a cool 5 million. Ahem, waiting for CIG to sell the IP rights to Turbulent, and at that point, they shut down CIG, say "poo poo" to backers, all debts are cleared, Turbulent hire CR as "creative director", CR pockets a few million, Turbulent work on the game going foward, CIG goes bankrupt, and all obligations cleared.
That vastness being... erm, let me count a minute..... 1! 1 system!
Cannot wait to run the entire SC stack locally to be able to play through the Magnum Opus.
Come on, that's never going to work. You've first got to dig deep into my middle age manchild psyche and sell me something that will make me feel like a real man. Can't you at least offer me a JPG of something?

Yeah, but who would by "SC" from Turbulent knowing it has just got the IP on a distress fire sale and the original promise and dream are out of the picture, including its legendary visionary who is not in command anymore?
Well, going out on a limb here, but it wouldn't be pitched like that. It would be pitched as the BDSSE, and everything bad would be blamed on other actors within CIG, while Turbulent, who for years have been building a reputation as those who deliver on SC, will be hailed at the new saviours of the BDSSE.
A new round of funding starts, fuelled by more JPG sales, and life goes on.
