Honestly if they successfully developed the technology that alone would be worth the wait, even if SC never actualizes. Since it can be used by other companies once it’s reverse engineered. I’ve heard some people think they’ll license the technology and make big bucks, but realistically their devs will get sniped and/or it will just be done by others.

While I don’t have any more confidence in Hello Games as I do Cloud Imperium, the initial claims of Sean when showing off the game “light no fire” seems to indicate that they are going for something similar by allowing all people to play on the same planet simultaneously in once instance. If they can pull that off (and that’s still a big If, considering their current multiplayer network instability of having four people play together) it’ll be somewhat similar to what CIG is doing and then we might start seeing other companies try their hand at it independently or with programmers from these developers.
