When you're playing Star Citizen and Squadron 42, what are you going to play? What are you looking forward to? Are you going to play it when it comes out?

TL;DRBoth speakers say they will play the game, saying the team makes a game they want to play and values freedom from publisher interference.

Oh, absolutely. I mean, I'm not going to work on this game for two years not to play it.

Well, I think we'll all be playing it. And as we grow, the universe is going to be there. For 5, 10, 15, whatever it takes, we're going to keep adding to it, right?

It's fun because I think, and most people that work here, we're all making a game that we want to play. So everyone puts a little more extra into it, just because we want to see it get done so we can play it. It's kind of nice not to have a publisher over your shoulder telling you that you can't do this because you might offend person X in some other country. The freedom that you have. You get to make what you want to make, as opposed to what somebody thinks will make you a bunch of money, which is great.

I agree, because usually the people that are telling you what should be or shouldn't be in the game are really not even gamers. They're just worried about the image.

And we're all gamers.
