    How about some perspective?

    Let’s use Cyberpunk 2077 as a comparison. They’ve spent about $450m over the course of about 10 years. Literally one of the most expensive games ever produced with an unreasonably long development time.

    Start Citizen has already taken longer and has a larger budget.

      Cyberpunk is one city, and a very impressive one. A far cry from the goal of a life sim in an entire galaxy, though.
