Anyone still giving them money, is stupid or ignorant.

For those who have been living under a rock, and are ignorant about the game: It's a crowdfunded game that started pre-production in 2010. Released early-access 2017/2018. Their funding passed $500m in 2023(over $800m now). They sold virtual ships for hundreds of dollars a decade ago, some of which are still not available. The game is still not finished, they're still selling ships and collecting funding, with no plan in sight to actually have a finished game any time soon.

A farmer from bangladesh could get more things done in that game than them.
