So I've always had a big interest in Star Citizen but since learning to develop games I've been keeping a much closer eye on the industry and scanning around for information on various people. Well it looks like there is a guy called Derek Smart who has had a personal vendetta against Chris Roberts since wing commander that pretty much most in the gaming sphere knows about who has had any interest in space simulators for quite some time.

For those who don't know, this guy Derek Smart is pretty much one of those incredibly petty and stalkerish people you will inevitably come across in life who decide just because they don't like you they're going to follow you around and try to cause havoc even if they're totally in the wrong. This guy makes me look like a fucking genius with the sorts of games he's 'released' and the business decisions he's made like Desktop Commander and Line of defense which incidentally has some rather idiotic micro-transactions that makes EA look sane http://lodmmo.com/store/.

So recently he decided to renew his vendetta against Chris Roberts who has been showing him up with his games like Wing Commander for years and recently his latest attack has been via proxy using the escapist gaming news website. Now it seems somebody has been doing some digging in the reddit post and has posted up all sorts of information about how the escapist 'sources' that are complaining about Star Citizen are full of shit, regardless of whether you like Star Citizen or not and whether you approve of the direction they're going in you've got to admit, this kind of thing is a fucking joke.
