Cloud Imperium Games: Where does Star Citizen's millions go?
In recent years, Cloud Imperium Games has become the subject of controversy not so much for the development of its ambitious space simulator Star Citizen, but for questionable decisions in spending the funds raised.
After all, more than $600 million has already been spent on the creation of Star Citizen, and there is still no exact release date for the game. At the same time, a former employee of the company, who published his observations on Reddit, claims that significant funds are spent on the interior and decoration of the office, and not on the development of the project.
Some office design elements cost so much that they could cover the salaries of several employees, he said. This raises even bigger questions about how the backers' money that has been invested in the project over the years is being used.
It's also worth noting that Cloud Imperium Games changed its refund policy in 2016, further complicating the relationship between the company and its investors.
In conclusion, while Star Citizen promises revolutionary tools and systems for the games of the future, many questions remain open about Cloud Imperium Games' current resource management and priorities.
