That whole game Kickstarter hype of the early 2010s was largely driven by ”look at all these industry legends and imagine what they could do if you funded them and they had free rein to do what they want!”.

Thing is, Star Citizen is the perfect example of what a guy who’s not so great at project planning does with no oversight. I don’t want to present Microsoft or corporate managers in general as the good guys or anything, but Freelancer actually got released because they didn’t have infinite tolerance for his BS.

I just know that not only is his company probably full of sycophants, Roberts thinks he’s actually a legendary game developer and filmmaker because EA happened to give him a ton of money to spend at a time when FMVs were a big deal in gaming.

Wing Commander may have had Mark Hamill, but the X-Wing series always had the better gameplay
