What if the game sucks? The community flops? Or never comes out at all?

I like funding a game genre that the major publishers have all but given up on, and I've been waiting for this exact game for over 10 years now. And it's unlikely this gets pushed back as they are releasing it in stages (another bonus for backers), working out the bugs and perfecting each component before releasing the full game. This isn't a one-and-done game either, Chris Roberts has stated that he wants Star Citizen to be a continually evolving universe with regular updates
