I understand what you're saying, but... Why should it, though? The Linux kernel is an example of a project that's been ongoing for decades. If Star Citizen puts out a product/service that fulfills the basic requirements -- and they will; at some point they'll reset the persistent universe and it will be very much "live", even while they continue development -- why should they stop iterating on top of it to add new features or other bells and whistles? I would much prefer a situation where Chris Roberts is the good king (a la Linus) of a project that evolves over the rest of his life into a truly remarkable and unique and world-changing game. How fun would that be? I think there's a lot of pressure from industry insiders who have LOTS of money riding on The Old Way of doing things that want to see CR fail. I'd love to see not only CR succeed -- and in many ways he already has -- but to continually succeed for as long as possible.
