If they did run out of money by spending it on stupid things or whatever the case is they should still give some sort of update to the community, because we deserve to know whats going on. Right now they are doing what Sean Murray did with No Man Sky when it was released, but at least that game is fully released and is still being updated. Its better to come out and say they have messed up to the community or post some sort of apology or literally anything then to just ditch us, cause if they just ditch us then it seems like they never cared in the first place.
But who knows, they either just unitentally ripped all of their supporters off or did it on purpose. Maybe they will sell all of their assets to a different company and then we will get the full game hopefully in the future.
