Here’s a quick question for you: if George Washington cloned himself an infinite amount of times, how many would support the Star Citizen MMO in-progress?
Here’s a quick answer: about 63 million of them. The rest I can only assume would join the remainder of the world in mocking David Cameron.
Maybe instead of taxing the homeless you could crowdfund your Dickensian schemes of bumfighter annihilation.
But enough about British parliament; let’s talk about something people WANTED to fund.
Star Citizen is an upcoming space simulation MMO from Wing Commander creator Chris Roberts that has, if money is to be any indicator, attracted a respectable amount of attention, reaching a $500,000 total on kickstarter and bringing in 2 million more in the past two weeks alone. And what have you done with your month?
It seems the space sim genre is far from dead, what with this the upcoming Star Citizen, the emerging Space Engineers indie title, and the ever-popular EVE Online. For all of the rehashed titles and cookie-cutter action games this industry can put out, it’s nice to know that no death is permanent when gamers get involved.
