And that isn't the only time, or even the first. I'm genuinely amazed that this grift is so perfect that the same vaporware can get polished up again and again, spinning its wheels in place, and people on the official forum and in Youtube comments say they're in tears about this.

I won't say I respect the hustle because I don't lick boots, but I am truly impressed with how powerful this grift is that it's self-perpetuating with that little to show for it over half a billion dollars and over a decade later.
