Star Citizen
Star Citizen has some serious hype surrounding it. That may be because it’s still not out and backers have been waiting for it since it was successfully Kickstarted back in 2012. Since then, the game has racked up a huge $109 million in pledges from fans desperate to get their hands on Star Citizen and its single player campaign, Squadron 42.
Unfortunately, there has been no update from Chris Roberts and the rest of the development team on the Kickstarter page in just under three years. This may well be because the team is hard at work, but when you have 255 people working on a game, you’d like to think a quick update every once in a while wouldn’t be too much to ask for.
Squadron 42 is the very first official product of the Star Citizen project that players will see, and even that is split into three episodes, the first of which is releasing this year. Star Citizen’s development timeline has become a complicated mess, and those who have followed the game closely throughout are starting to voice their concerns louder and louder. It may be an incredible project in design, but whether or not Roberts and the rest of Cloud Imperium Games can actually deliver a final product remains unclear.
