Cloud Imperium Games , the developer ofStar Citizen , was ground to develop the game by Director Chris Roberts . The crowdfunded cause for the plot isthe most successful in entertainment history .
One reason why so many people invested in the game is for Chris Roberts , the renowned creator ofWing Commander . Star Citizeninitially target to be a space - flight of stairs simulator with dogfighting and trading across the Galax urceolata . fan ofWing Commanderimagined thatStar Citizenwould be its unearthly successor , with updated graphics and the potential for VR .

For all theconsiderable fund-raise achievementsStar Citizenhas hit , the game has also been plague bymishandled money and want of focus . To be fair , Cloud Imperium is being transparent with their investors and player base .

It ’s clear that Cloud Imperium Games is in over their heads with the developing ofStar Citizen . The game was initially planned for a 2014 release , six years later it seems its no closer now than it was then . It ’s grueling to blame the developer as they never could ’ve imagined the games scope would be as large as it has turn out to be .
