Bro's probably already retired lmao, just baiting fools now, that's crazy money
Darkcookie is still doing public art-streams for potential future updates of the game, afaik.
No one can convince me otherwise that star citizen isn't a money laundering act at this point.
AFAIK, Star Citizen indeed simply needs that much money for development, actually.
Their issue, as I see it, is that they promise tech that is 5-10 years in the future. Which in turn means that
they have to develop, and keep developing, revolutionary new technology every year. Which takes a lot of (expensive) highly skilled developers a lot of time. After a few cycles of that, the rest of the world has caught up, and Star Citizen starts a new hype cycle for the next update.
If you look at how many hundreds of millions of Dollars AAA games cost these days, now imagine if they were actually building new standards for their games instead of making the next game in a franchise.
The end goal of Star Citizen seems to be a fully immersive universe simulator. Given how many things there happen to be in a universe, they can burn up all the money they get on developers, then double that, and have endlessly more to spend.
Their latest endeavour is a full movie with well-known actors, filmed entirely within the game world, as far as I know. It’s a big hole, and it fits a lot of money. On the bright side, it is already a very
pretty hole, so if you are satisfied with the current state, you may well get your money’s worth.
