My buddy loves this game, but I just don't really get it.

Once you spend 10k, you'll understand.

I’ve only spent $45 and when it isn't being a buggy mess (rare) its an incredible game, i just have minimal hope they can ever really fix it at this point.

I swear I’ve heard the same thing about NFTs

It gets really good after 10 ~~hours~~ thousand dollars.

Why don't you get it? Huge fun space game, has more content now than most other games and they've only just started working on it properly after finishing squadron 42

Based on my friend's description, it's a perpetual work in progress. It seems like the appeal to him is the idea what it might eventually become, and the anticipation of updates, as opposed to what it currently is. Not for me.

It hasn't been the focus of the company, until now. The devs were all working on the squadron 42 game until this month. Now the focus has moved to star citizen
