I'm sometimes shocked how expensive these ships are and how much money people have sunk into a game that still isn't coming out for another year. If this game doesn't deliver there are going to be a lot of very angry people. I might even go so far as to say if it doesn't deliver, it would damage the crowdfunding image a lot. I still have high hopes though.
In my opinion its already looking promising, they'd have to really screw something up to destroy the foundation they currently have. The only real risk is it getting too complex for a lot of people but its not there yet.
But also, HORNETS FOR EVERYONE! For a week from Friday anyways.
