I was curious about this game, but I don't do early access / paid alphas for MMOs. There were many warning signs over the years; sales of Star Citizen style expensive JPEGs, the CEOs deep involvement in MLM and the decision to temporarily pivot to a BF game.

If what is being reported is true, the CEO is indeed a full on scammer and liar.

The funny thing is the main victims of the Intrepid CEO were other MLM hot shots (one of them sounds like he barely knows how to use a computer, let alone MMORPG gaming).

Corruption is so normalized at this point.
