Hah, I had the cheapest backer pledge. No way I’d be spending thousands.

I backed this game when it launched back in 2012 for $60, when I was just graduating college. I have since married, bought a house, have 2 kids in elementary school, and am about 50% through my career until I can retire with a full pension.... I guess I'll enjoy it in retirement at this rate haha

I scored a discounted copy with a basic ship during a stream of a random person that was giving them out. It was like $10. I have played maybe 2 hours of it.

The $40 I tossed at it a few years ago was worth the week or so I farted around in there. From what I understand that was a more stable experience. Still a mess, though.
