@deathlordcrime: None of the other games you mentioned continuously released "pre-alpha" footage for 5 years; maybe that has something to do with it. Also, 4 years past the initial release window can also kill hype; see the Last Guardian. Another difference is this one has taken people's money already, some for thousands.
SQ42 had footage shown at the end of 2017. They never showed much of it since it was announced.
Developers do it all the time showing pre-alpha/alpha footage a year before release and yall get hyped on 5 to 10 minute demo from EA and Ubisoft. Funny Beyond Good and Evil showed what they were doing and everyone was amazed with it. People did the same exact thing with NMS and they were showing far less gameplay before release even with Mass Effect Andromeda that was the same case. There are plenty of time to polish SQ42 and add final features. Building planets and putting content into them surrounding by vast space isn't easy.
I was not amazed by any of the games you listed when they showed its "Alpha" footage especially Beyond Good and Evil.
A lot people were and that was just doing things like exploring and messing around in the game.

BTW Star Citizen 3.0 already blows NMS out of the water and that is one of the few final major updates before it goes beta. There are plenty of time to polish SQ42 and add final features because they had to hold it off because of the missing features but they still showed the game. Building planets and putting content into them surrounding by vast space isn't always easy.

If this wasn't called Star Citizen you know you would be hyped to play the game
@deathlordcrime: From what I see in a lot of Korean online and mobile games, if they started to make more singleplayer AAA PC and console titles, they could easily put Japan and even the West to shame.
I think if China and Korea companies put a lot of money and effort into a game they can differently be as good as other wester AAA titles
Yeah I've been following the game someone in my Steam China thread mentioned it and a couple of Asian MMO/Gaming sites I follow have shown it, I hope they make an English verison although they probably will since the game was at E3 and is on Steam (region locked though). It's cool to see China expand beyond online and mobile games.
Definitely want to see them expand outside those genre
I hope South Korea starts to do the same. They have a lot of talented developers, so much that it should be a crime that 99% of the games they make are mobile or online only.
Agree a lot of wasted talents. Hopefully there will be more studio willing to do this.

Chinese? Looks like the weebs won't like that because its not from Japan. Looks graphically better than most JRPG that for sure. China seems to be slowly getting there and may potentially produce a lot more AAA quality games.
@pimphand_gamer: CIG is already aware of all the issue when they did the commentary version and is planning to polish up the game to make it better. The demo did not have all the features and was only for showing purposes.
@needhealing: There aware of issues when they did the commentary with the demo and are polishing up a lot of things. It was a vertical slice for the sole purpose of showing the backers and did not have all the features there.
