Star Citizen is what iRacing players look at to feel better about themselves

Actually that's too mean to iRacing players since iRacing works

I hope an underground software liberation group (cracking) can make this software accessible for everyone.

It's $45 to buy the game outright.

This isn't real money is it? Please tell me it isn't. I don't play this game but that would just be fucking sad.

OK, I understand EVE and I understand Elite Dangerous, but this is not normal.

They don’t want to risk such a large chargeback or lawsuit over “accidental” purchase by a new user, so are only trying to sell to proven whales.

The biggest scam in gaming continues unchecked.
