Star Citizen is flawed in major ways, but it's still my favorite game even unfinished. It does things no other game does. It's a broken, incomplete experience, but it is still my favorite thing regardless.
It's easy to hate on it from the outside. I was an early backer and I echoed the sentiment many of these articles have. Last December I hopped into the Alpha with a friend and after playing it every week for the past 9 months I have to say that while I acknowledge the slow and flawed development, they made something I think is awesome today. It's maybe never coming out, but there's a sandbox today that's been worth exploring.
Yeah no one can argue that it isn't a giant mismanaged, drastically overdue mess, but it's literally the only game of its kind right now, I haven't played in a little while now, but earlier on I put easily hundreds of hours into it
That being said, God I wish they'd get their shit together and get the damn thing finished.. At least just SQ42..
And I think this is what divides the folks who enjoy Early Access games and those who do not.
I do think it's lovely the kinds of people who acknowledge the warts and yet are still inspired to play.
