Star Citizen
« on: October 10, 2012, 01:14:34 PM »

I'm drooling, I'm drooling!

In short, this is THE space action game everybody has been waiting for! From the maker of Wing Commander and Freelancer! High end graphic! Simulation-grade realism! Singleplayer Campaign! Persistent Universe Multiplayer! Joystick and Occulus Rift support!  Only need to raise a few million dollar from the crowd! I'll be damned!

The game was completed 8 years ago and we get a free expansion every year.

Arranging holidays in an embrace with the Starsector is priceless.

How many different indie games are you advertising? ;D Seems a bit odd, no?

What, I'm excited! It's not my fault if all those cool games appear at the same time!  ;D

I don't even care if a game is indie or not, but oddly all the really interesting ones are...

Perhaps I am from a simpler time, when you bought games that were completed, rather than unstarted, but I find it hard to get all excited over things that don't exist.

Honestly, you never know if any excitement was justified before you actually play the game, so you pay to early anyway. Doesn't make much difference to me if I pay for an idea and a promise or a finished pile of code and a promise, aside from the waiting time obviously.

But especially if you are an older gamer I'm surprised that not at least one of the numerous revivals on Kickstarter got you excited...?

Well, there are certain games that, yes, have excited me despite myself, and I've funded both SF and Kinetic Void, both of which had only a little to show for themselves at the point I paid for them.

Revivals are good, but often go astray, so I can't get too hyped up over them.

P.S. I'm only... uhh... 21. Not exactly an "older gamer" unless I'm on an Xbox.

Oh god wai. Wai.

I have to spend my money on it, i just have to. Like, now.

On a more serious note, what will the gameplay be like in MP? And do you automatically gain credits when farming, having battles etc. or are they real cash only?
