by 2030 I expect either to be dead or upgrading my potato to 1.1 potato, so maybe I can run those nifty websites that have full page videos on the background, so, no SC for me ---

> [@Nana\_Skalski](#): > > I will just wait for the game. As good it looks, It will be somewhat different when released. They have done that with Witcher 3 too, remember? Demo was so good looking, but then game came with graphical downgrade. Played so good that people actually did not pay much attention to the details. I think the same situation will happen with Cyberpunk 2077. I remember. I played the hell out of Witcher 3. Was playing it for about 5-6 months after it came out with the free DLCs, then down the line I bought all the paid expansions and played it another year or so. So much content there. And if you remember, while the game was initially downgraded, it still looked awesome and played even awesomer. Then it got upgraded back up again shortly after (was it like 3-4 months ? don’t remember exactly) with some additional items with one of the patches and free DLCs. So what you mention I think just didn’t make the launch date, maybe they didn’t make it in time optimization wise or something on the ultra high textures. No matter how you slice and dice it, the game has absolutely great gameplay, super content a lot of which if not most is adult oriented, and I don’t mean sex oriented, just adult oriented in general such as some of the moral decisions, their outcomes, etc. I had to play through it minimum 3 times the main game then the expansions just to get all the different quest paths, dialogues, endings. And this is looking even better then all that, and its bigger with even more content. And your characters cyber implants vs loss of humanity just for starters … I’ll be glued to it for a long time. It is also highly likely that when it comes out I won’t have a rig good enough to run it on ultra anyways, depending on development time, launch date and my rig upgrade cycle, so a few textures that are not in ultra instead of just high are not going to dissuade me in the slightest. ---

Star Citizen promises much more content and Eve has a lot more stuff, content and tradition in it. It will be very interesting in the end to see how this competition will end. Particular attention should be paid to changing the format that is on the horizon. ie the growth of mobile gaming popularity that will certainly affect all markets and companies. ---

My voice is light in the dark. My voice is refreshing to the tired soul My voice brings peace and serenity. My voice brings my thoughts and feelings. I want to divide myself and your knowledge as good news with all the blissful souls of the 4 great empires. The confused souls may wonder why I answer them and why not? One soul has been asking the way the space citizen or the way of Eve is right one, and I wonder if they are opponents one against the other or they are one with each other. Because of the purity of the four empires, each of us has to find an answer. I speak loudly, let’s go together the citizen and Eve one by one in harmony. ---

> [@Remiel\_Pollard](#): > > Here, I’ll show you the difference. LOL You make it look like there is skill in E:D for piloting… does it follow Newtonian physics? And DCS, flying a Flanker isn’t exactly hard. Fact is piloting is a lot more than just being ■■■■ hot with a joystick. But you can pilot with a mouse and keyboard like the players in EVE… or you can pilot with a steering wheel and a throttle like those who are river boat pilots. There are few games that actually involve real piloting. ---

Real piloting is autopiloting. 😉 I think people miss the big lettering on CIG webpage about SC. > YOUR FIRST-PERSON UNIVERSE Its all about first person universe, thats a catch. EVE is all about being a spaceship and that is what people can like too. I am not kink-shaming. ---

Therefore EVE doesn’t have to compete, because each game provides a different type of experience. We can and should have both! At its most recent convention, Chris Roberts discussed the tech goals he saw as requirements to declare SC in a “Released” state - and it seemed to me it may take another two years to get there. Anyone can look at their [roadmap](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/roadmap/board/1-Star-Citizen) and find what seem to be really important features planned for Q2 2019, and that’s probably optimistic. ---
