Hi there! UlyssesT here again. Some of you may be asking "UlyssesT, where is the latest Star Citizen slop?" Well I got a treat for you: CitizenCON video, hours of it!
As a normie who's only heard a few bits of Star Citizen second hand, my mental image for "only Star Citizen can do this" is the player character insrantly falling to the planet's core while assuming limb configurations not yet seen by man because the physics engine is too busy simulating the inner parts of a coffee machine in the room next door.
Maybe just shooting for "generic AAA" wouldn't be so bad at this point
Best spaceship game out right now is Cosmoteer, IMO. It's 2D and mostly created by one guy (he managed to hire some additional help after getting some cash). The game still gets major updates - for free - with more on the way.
The next best spaceship game is Faster Than Light, but it was finished years ago and the devs have moved on to other projects. They'll update the game for bugs and maintenance, but not major content updates.
That's their horizons for what's impressive? Video game tech from over two decades ago? Truly this justifies the decade of development hell and the small country's worth of GDP burnt.
