Serves people right for crowdfunding a game let alone one built around some libertarian wet dream where you have to buy your way to success, dropping thousands on content like spaceships.
You realize they're developing two games simultaneously and the star citizen hate is only banked by people who don't realize they've literally told everyone that SC isn't getting content updates until Squadron 42 is done.
Secondly, buying ships for money is advertised as "do this if you want to support our game". The ship cost being relative to a supporter tier if it was Patreon. Every single ship available can be bought and earned in game without spending more than $35 for the game's basic access package.
Serves dumbasses right who expect news cycled to them and can't do basic 5 minutes of critical thinking to eat slop like this article

I don't know, it's a good question but my point is how cringe of a hate train this game gets from people who haven't a fucking clue what they're talking about just to farm the feeling they're with the in crowd. RSI has missed a lot of deadlines, but star citizen looks so unfinished because everything they're working on isn't being put in the PU nor heavily marketed. They're not just sitting on a dragons hoard doing nothing
SC itself is self admitted a tech demo and like all early access games you're told to only buy into them if you want to support the game.
No one is holding a gun to backers' heads and forcing them to buy jpg concepts
