No, the game is still a scam because it’s been literally over a decade of development and every time I’ve been invited to go try the latest and greatest in their innovation, the game is laggy as balls and the servers never work. Also the fact that they have ships costing as much as actual automobiles that people purchase despite still being technically in beta is absolutely bonkers. They’ve had several waves of crowdfunding and the game is still in a pretty garbage state.
Trust me, I’ve wanted an actual successor to Freelancer for longer than this game has been in development, and it still doesn’t scratch the itch because whenever I try to play it, the game essentially doesn’t work.
Cost discipline is the last thing on these guys’ radar. A 20,000 dollar ship? That’s like a third of somebody’s annual salary.
More because I don’t believe a single word that comes out of Bugthesda and the fact that what they made was their same old shit but even more tedious somehow. It’s not about denial, it’s about Todd Howard being a pathological liar.

Rules:
1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy “anti-woke” energy, you probably shouldn’t be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
The company that’s been running one of the most successful scams in gaming for over a decade is toxic? No way.

You really believe that mess called Starfield took a decade to make? That’s funny

Have fun defending a broken game. Sunk cost fallacy is a traditional trait of SC players.

Anything with a twenty thousand dollar “microtransaction” is a fucking scam.
(It’s also kind of boring)
It’s a Ponzi scheme, right?

You don’t say…
They consolidated companies to the uk. Anyone who didnt want to live in the uk was let go. They did a similar thing to their Texas building years ago.
