I was wondering what happened to wing commander because i remember Wing Commander Prophecy being really good as a kid. Well it turns out the WC guy is the Star Citizen guy, so I guess they shelved their successful IP so he could grift kickstarter for 20 years

      They only said it once in 2014, I remember being like “fuck 2 years is a long wait!”

      … little did I know lol

      After that though they never promised a date, it was always just “in production.” I’ve spent entirely way too much time following the SC project lol

        “Star Citizen will release in 2016, about 2 years after S42” - Chris Roberts, 2012.

        #StarCitizen will release in 2027-2028, we contacted the author to ask for clarification on the source and he quoted Chris Roberts himself as saying “one or two years probably after squadron 42”
