That $48K can get you a real plane though, or boat. But maybe someone paying that for ships in Star Citizen has both already 😅
48k for a plane or boat? Good luck with that.
Something like this, there are more selections within that range on that site,

Neat you can get a shitty plane in need of a major overhaul.
So, you’re not accounting for the required training and licensing to operate those, I take it? FYI, even if you “fast track” the training and go straight for the written exam that precedes logged flight hours (sim and real, both), you’re still looking at ~$30k just to be allowed to fly. Then, there’s the routine (& frequent) maintenance, storage, fuel, etc.
Sure, you can buy a cute li’l death trap for <$50k, but it’s a lawn ornament without licensing.
Don’t get me wrong: fuck Star Citizen sideways with an alien chode tumor. Just, don’t point to garage-tier aviation “solutions” as a fair comparison. 🤗
Inb4 Star Citizen tries to feel more exclusive by instituting spaceship pilot training and licensing that requires logged hours and such…
…you know, so people don’t ruin their “investments”! D:
Don’t forget, you gotta pay for those licenses and classes
If you can afford to spend 60k on a video game, you can afford to get a license and a plane, I’m pretty sure…
