It's not just them. I accidentally ended up in prison for 5 years and lost my Google account, and because I had two FA setup with email and the phone number I had at the time that means I also lost my steam account and pretty much every single digital account I had. Thousands of games on different storefronts.

Ironically the only single place that helped me recover my account was the kind folks at Roberts Space Industries. I was an initial backer... Maybe one day the game will be done.

Everything else I pirate now. If you don't own it physically, you don't own it.

An initial backer of Star Citizen who still believes in the project is worth his weight in gold-pressed latinum to Roberts Space Industries.

... I mean, I don't. They've done some cool shit, but they haven't made one actual good game much less a billion dollars worth of good games. But after losing steam, GOG, PlayStation, and Microsoft accounts I just sort of got desperate.

"Maybe one day the game will be done," is more grace than that game deserves, as you probably are aware.

I just found out about Luanti, a voxel-engine with a bunch of different implementations. It's free. I'm going to try that this week.
