I used to think that too, give them the benefit of the doubt and attribute it to ambition and lack of experience. I just don’t buy it any more, there’s a years long list of evidence pointing to outright lies and misinformation done by CIG, cases of nepotism within the company and overall mismanagement. Even few years ago youtube videos documenting all of these in detail started popping up, not that I need them since I was there in 2016 for the “SQ42 demo was only hours away from being ready but canceled due to animation issues lie”, followed by a sob story weeks later and then years of silence about state of sq42.
It’s just too much to excuse at this point, at least for me. If other people don’t mind it good for them but I’m done with CIG, even if the game is completed one day I don’t see them successfully managing and maintaining it so it’s fun to play.
