Yeah, I'm sure Amazon's position as the owner of some programmers and a bigass greenscreen will allow their slop to synergize into ambrosia. Great interview, my guy, now do one in a few years where you explain it's the fault of Steam's monopolistic position your shit wasn't scarfed down by the masses.

Star Citizen critics hate this one fact about game development...
