I really liked both Freespace games and also played FSO. 🥰 Too bad there's no FS3. 😭🤧😢
Elite Dangerous has nice graphics and fantastic sound but I find it boring. 😪
X4 is less of a space shooter and more of a economy simulator. 🤑

The game creator of freelancer has built his own studio to develop the spiritual sequel of freelancer.
Have a look at Star Citizen (still in development).
Have a look at Star Citizen (still in development).
In development for a decade with over $580 million in development costs and no release date in sight.
I wonder if Star Citizen one day ends up as a case study for bad project management.
That pisses me off so much. They could probably be at Star Citizen 3.0 or something by now with two fully working prior iterations, but now, instead they constantly shift their target around.
It's still not a game I would even remotely consider, but is it really bad management if it's insanely profitable?
If it collects money without delivering a result, it is a scam, isn't it?
The definition of a project is
A project is any undertaking, carried out individually or collaboratively and possibly involving research or design, that is carefully planned to achieve a particular goal.
If the only goal they achieve is "make money", I don't think that would align with what people gave money for. Because they could have chosen a charity otherwise.
People keep saying they don't deliver but they have been delivering. The game gets a new build every quarter with updates and new content. Players are still technically playing a development build so it's full of bugs and only limited to one star system but that one star system is huge with 4 planets, 7 stations and lots of points of interest.
Yes and that's why I didn't say they are slacking off or stealing money. I said the project management sucks. Because they constantly shift their goals instead of defining and finishing up the game. That also doesn't mean they need to stop then.
Look at No Mans Sky. They didn't stop after the release. Chris Roberts could have done something similar. Instead of acting impulsive on his ideas, he could have collected them for the next update of the game.
