Even if they had finished and shipped that game 2 years ago without a single bug and all the promised features it would’ve not been the right game for everybody. This is IMO part of the very concept from the very start. Space games are not for everybody. Even good ones.

I wonder how many of the people who dislike Star Citizen as a game actually like space games?

Even with FPS elements, mining, trading and dogfights, space is a huge place and it takes a certain type of person to enjoy flying around in a ship for longer than a minute.

All the things playable right now, plus all the things they've shown at conventions and on their Youtube channel.
