Edit: Oh my god, it's actually a real thing, and it costs $575. I promise I don't play Star Citizen and have never seen this before. I genuinely just wanted to make up some stupid bullshit (I literally just ripped the class name off of one of the ranks from the game Ratchet: Deadlocked and gave a type of ship that sounded expensive), but Chris beat me to the punch. Bravo.
Over 640€even, I am sure that’s not proper conversion but ok, it’s flying fucking expensive in any case. Jesus. Who the heck buys these overpriced dead pixels?
Dude is living the greedy capitalist dream almost to a T. Never have to deliver a final product, players buy up digital ships more expensive than six years worth of games, and thats it thats the business model.
I made up a class name and assigned it to an expensive-sounding ship because I've never played Star Citizen and have never even been on the website; in trying to make up some dumb bullshit, I accidentally came up with something that approximates the Anvil Liberator.
And, you know, gestures wildly at the $48,000 ship pack; the fact this in-game asset I basically just made up by accident is real and sold officially for $575; the lack of any release timeline and the way it's been in early access for over a decade despite raising over $1 billion, amounting to a never-ending whalefishing expedition...
Yeah when you look from the outside without actually following the development, it sure looks like a whale fishing expedition. But I can assure you that it's not.
