I don't think comparing GTA, the most financially successful game of all time, to star citizen does star citizen any favors. Star citizen is a very niche game, even if they will do everything they plan I don't expect they will even approach 500m in sales.
- wongogue 2y agoThese players are not investors expecting a return. In a way the game has already got them $750m.
- yreg 2y agoThey have already passed 100s of millions in sales. We can consider some of the earlier money inflows 'donations', but what's happening nowadays is de facto sales.
- arlcode 2y agoBuyers in Europe pay full VAT for Star citizen "donations" since that law was introduced many years ago. So at least the EU and UK believe these transactions to be sales.
