Former CIG employee speaks out about Star Citizen’s design trajectory and money burn
With this game it always seem to be more profitable to keep it in development forever rather than releasing it.
Well this article is kinda saying that they are barely keeping their head above water as it is, and CIG is vastly mismanaging money and driving development heavily on how many ships they can sell in that year.
So if anything I'd say that this strategy doesn't seem to be working out for them anymore
Look at it another way.
If they’re keeping their head above water, even barely, it means they are keeping their head above water. Without delivering a product. For YEARS.
They’re earning money by selling empty promises year after year. Not a lot of money. They’ll never become billionaires from this game. But there are lots of people in there (mainly executives and CEO and whatever) earning a decent salary. On empty promises! It’s as close to a scam as it can be without being illegal.
None of this should be a surprise to anyone remotely familiar with their timelines
