While Baldur's Gate 3 is being widely celebrated by fans and developers alike, some are panicking that this could set new expectations from fans. Good.

They also lifted chunks of Star Citizen.

I'm fairness, incomplete chunks is all that exists of Star Citizen.

Well, that and a whaling operation on the scale of Victorian England's.

I am in the SC club and it's a glitchy, broken, incomplete mess while also being one of the coolest gaming experiences I've ever had when it works.

About $500 of the ~$600 million they've raised is mine, dating from the original crowdfunding campaigns and the first year or two of development. I still check in every year or two to see if they're any closer to having a complete game, and every time I do, I come away with the sense that they've put vastly more effort into developing and selling spaceship JPEGs than they have into making the game those spaceships are supposed to be used in.

Whenever I play I just assume there's a reason no one else has tried to make star citizen before. Though they def have a problem with management and scope creep though
