I'm wondering if we should take a bet on how much Star Citizen can make before it actually launch. The scariest thing right now for me is that the developer will be stuck in feature creep hell. This game is almost guaranteed to miss its deadline now.
Given that I am expecting at least another 2 years before the 'soft launch' and maybe 3-6 months after that for the official launch, this game could conceivably reach a stage where the developer HAS to stop stretch goals simply to have a launch window target.
The mind boggles at how successful this game has become. What sort of game can boast to have 34 million (at this stage I am expecting 50 million tbh) dollars in the bag from customers before exiting Alpha lol.
