OK, important question: Who is a bigger merchant of unfulfilled promises and vaporware? Chris Roberts or Elon Musk?

I sincerely hope, I really do, that they'll push out SQ42 in 2026. I've not followed nor played the game in any iteration, but it'd be nice to finally get something out the door after all this time. Might placate the supporters, maybe draw in new players. I think it likely won't vindicate Roberts, but at least there would be something on the plate.

I don't see it happening. It's just another drive for more people to push more money at them.
