You sound like MAGAs discussing immigration under a Fox News post. Circle jerk of hate based on misinformation, but trying to talk reason to people who love to hate the thing they hate and don't want to stop is not going to work. Keep on believing gaming journalists from disreputable tabloids who invent controversy for clicks. The engagement on Star Citizen hate posts is massive compared to others. Hating Star Citizen is directly more profitable for these sites. There is no oversight on truthfulness in gaming news.

CitizenCon was this weekend. There has been an uptick in hit pieces posted this week. That isn't a coincidence. You are being being primed to react negatively to the content that will be posted from it.

No, it's not an FPS. It's 99% a space sim like Wing Commander with a few FPS parts. It is a full AAA game, maximum fidelity, 30-40 hour campaign. You don't even know what you're talking about. You could actually watch the video you have so many opinions about, but oh that's right, it's a conspiracy if it's good.

I have hundreds of hours in Star Citizen and have enjoyed them all. That's not very much compared to many, many others. They are growing in players and revenue for 10 years. That doesn't happen to bad games. They release massive updates every quarter. They just bought a new campus in Manchester so they can hire more devs, on top of the existing thousand. It's a genuinely fun game, right now, enjoyed by many. You don't have to be one of them, but your tinfoil hat nonsense is just vitriolic skepticism from reading these tabloids, not critical thinking.

We're out there, flying around, having a great time wanting y'all to join our space shenanigans. Just try it the next free-fly with an open mind. Even if you tried it before, try it now, it is improving every quarter, it's a different beast now than a few years ago.

Man, when you have to compare someone to literal fascists because they don't trust your untrustworthy videogame company, you have a problem.

I'm not, I'm calling them capitalist, investor run businesses, which they are. Inventing controversy is an ancient, reliable way to make money.

I'm calling star citizen haters a bunch of gullible cynics. There's an emotional element in people's need to hate star citizen. I think they've just been burned so much, any time something cool is promised, they automatically assume the worst. If Star Citizen delivers, it would be very, very cool and the hate is proportional. I'm having a great time in Star Citizen with a whole bunch of people right now. Anything else is just noise, be it promises from the devs or internet articles or salty people who can't just ignore this game if they don't like it like an adult.

Every comment in these posts seems to be either "StarCitizen killed my family and dishonored my temple" or "can't believe people let SC kill their family and dishonor their temple."

Same old hate without real substance.

Chris can shut up the haters just fine by finishing the game.

Why do you need to publicly hate at all? These people are enjoying a toy they aren't supposed to so now everyone has to hear your feelings on it? Y'all are nuts. Ignore the game if you don't like it like you do with every other game you don't like.

The haters can silence themselves by shutting up and touching grass. It's a videogame, not a genocide.

Broken promise after promise, missed release date after release date, broken feature after broken feature after every rework

it’s clearly a fucking 13-year-old scam, it’ll be goddamn voting age before it’s released.
