"Scam" implies that they're not delivering the product, and they are, as in you can actually go and play it. There is actually a fair bit to do. Not overly exciting non-stop heroics, but the game is trying to simulate what life in space would be like, and does a pretty good job of it so far.

Are they delivering the product? I was a kickstarter backer, and still don't have the singleplayer campaign that was promised. How long ago was that?

[–] Wodge@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well I backed it before the kickstarter and have been playing the multiplayer on and off for a few years now.

Pretty sure I said "singleplayer" in response to you saying "they are delivering the product". Which is false, since I can't play it.

[–] Wodge@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Well since it's single player and multiplayer, yes it's partially delivered. The kickstarter, and original crowd funding through their site, did not separate the 2 different versions, so you did, in fact, back the single player and multiplayer. It may not be the bit you wanted, but it is a part of the overall product that has been delivered.

Lmao the copium. Your 400$ ship wasnt worth it.

look, generally I don't do this but, really? that's your take? that someone spent money on a hobby? I spent more money on injection molded miniatures for DnD, what about people who go to 3-star restaurants? a package of the cheapest Walmart slop also has calories, does it not?

Unironically didn't we agree that Protestant anti-fun shit was idiotic when we drove them out to America?

There's a lot to unpack here lol. Your first sentence says it all. Use that for future reference for everyone's sake please.

[–] orrk@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

ya, i normally don't shame people for not being able to spend money, but you really set a new low

[–] Summzashi@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

Is that what you were doing? Hahaha

[–] Wodge@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

lmao i paid $45 before the kickstarter and easily had my monies worth.

I can't play Squadron 42 like promised - ergo it wasn't delivered. Stop being a fanboy when a fact is a fact. It's an absolute truth, you can't change it by weasiling around it.
