Who-lee-CHIT! They did it!
If you're a gamer and like simulation style space settings, you've probably heard of Star Citizen. It's a game that's been in Alpha, meaning development stage, for the past decade, but each stage of development has been playable, and players give feedback to help with development. It's been frustrating for players because after 10+ years there is still no finished product, and playing the Alpha is buggy and doesn't always work. It's often said we will never see a finished product.
BUT, it's one of the best looking and most immersive games I've ever played. The attention to detail is insane, the visuals are lext level. I don't know I've ever played anything that has felt more real, and that's even without VR. Wake up in your apt, wander the city gathering food and supplies on the way to the spaceport, retrieve your ship from storage, climb into and start your ship, and fly from planet surface to space, as well as to other planets all without a loading screen or any breaks in gameplay. If Star Citizen ever gets finished it will be game industry changing. Standards and expectations will be raised.
Now comes Squadron 42... SQ42 is a single player campaign version of the Star Citizen universe that they started working years ago, and many players were upset about this and assumed it would just be another broken, never get finished promise from the developers, but THEY DID IT! And it looks awesome!
I'm more excited about this that I was for Starfield. Hopefully this helps speed along progress of Star Citizen.
