Star Citizen expected to reach $100 million in funding
The designer discussed the community engagement and crowdfunding efforts of the space simulation game, noting that the developer is "now close to $70 million, and it's likely the carry-on will probably be over $100 by the time the game is close to public release." Roberts stressed that Star Citizen's crowdfunding efforts "isn't really about the money," but rather "it's really about bringing people in to create this community and have them sort of share that experience with you as you're building it."

I heard about this game about 2 years ago. But from what I know, it's going to freakin EPIC! It's like a huge MMO with many different roles and perspectives to play from. Ranging from a pirate stealing other peoples' cargo to a merchant selling insurance plans to a Star Fighter defending the galaxy. The glorious thing about this game is DETAIL!! So much detail in anything and everything you do/see. Definitely get it when she comes out.

How can they say this "isn't really about the money"? Of course it is. The whole community building idea is just to make crowdfunding sound less commercial

First time I've heard of this game but with that sort of money going into it, it must turn out to be good so I'm looking forward to see it when its finished.

I don't think anyone can imagine how much $100 million actually is, a huge amount of money!
