Gary Oldman said squadron 42 was coming out next year
Mark Hamil said that something called “Squadron 54” was coming out soon, this was half a decade ago.

What does you having fun with friends in star citizen have to do with it being a scam?
These things are unrelated.
There are companies with 50K employees with working delivery (no JPEG of an barrel) where the management was found to engage in fraud.

I remember them announcing that SQ404 was entering a “polishing” phase in late 2023.
At that point and to this day, they failed to finalise a flight model, develop an armour/shield system and implement engineering gameplay.
Arguably these are critical elements for a release with space sim gameplay. Although if SQ404 does release, I think it will be 30 hours of Wing Commander The Movie level cut scenes (space bulldozer) and script, with bored sounding Hollywood actors counting the seconds till they can leave Chris Roberts mocap studio.
Inside Chris Roberts Mocap Studio:
Roberts: Hehehe. Hey, Mark! You know how I came up with the Vanduul? Hehe.
Hamil: No, how?
Roberts: Ehehe. Vandals to Vanduul! Get it? Hehehe. Pretty smart, right? Hehehe.
Hamil: Very original.
Roberts: Did you know the Vandals were a Germanic that raided the Roman Empire? Bet you didn’t know that! Hehehe.
Hamil: I am in awe of your creativy!
Roberts: I know, right! Hehehe.
Ok Mark, enough farting around. Pretend you are riding a space bulldozer!

It does sound strange to say that Genshin Impact has sold out. That seems part and parcel of being a gacha game.

Sure, but that doesn’t mean one has to go along with their DLC policy. It’s reasonable to be aligned with such a business model (especially when there is competition in the indie segment that is far more reasonable about DLC than Paradox).

Can’t speak for competition in consoles, but parts costs have radically increased, particularly GPUs (and it’s getting much more difficult to have generational leaps in graphics quality).

I am saying. If the game is formally released, it is reasonable to provide refunds (irrespective of purchase date) for cash shop items that don’t exist or don’t work.

There are also contractual issue to consider. Their investors have a “one-sided” put option in 2028 that might force them to “release” SC even if 80% of the marketed gameplay doesn’t exist and large number of cash items are de facto non-functional.
- Comment on New article says #StarCitizen will release in 2027-2028, we contacted the author to ask for clarification on the source and he quoted Chris Roberts himself as saying "1 or 2 Y probably after S42" 2 weeks ago:
Sure, but if SC is actually released, it is only fair to provide a no questions asked refund policy for JPEGs and non-functional cash shop items. Is it not?
At any rate, this discussion is moot, because SC is not released as BlameTheAntifa claims. The overwhelming majority of marketed gameplay, content simply doesn’t exist and a large part of the cash items are either broken or borderline non-functional.

Yes, the release date is N + 2 years. With N being the current year.

So if it is released, would it be fair to allow “no question asked” refunds on all cash shop items that are in still in JPEG form or de facto don’t work?
