What exactly is this game trying to be?
Everything.
And this is why producers or project leads are not always the villains when they force designers to cut content in games.
Sometimes content gets cut because they don't have time to finish it, look at Destiny. That wasn't due to scope creep, that was lack of time and planning.
Whatever they can get you to pay money for
I really can’t see it either. This thread is almost proof that there is some kind of massive confusion. People are arguing about whether this is a pre alpha or an alpha, whether it’s Star Citizen in alpha or Squadron 42, an FPS game in the same universe. Their website doesn’t make it really obvious either. I don’t know how such a confusing product makes so much money.
