    Edit: Oh my god, it’s actually a real thing, and it costs $575. I promise I don’t play Star Citizen and have never seen this before. I genuinely just wanted to make up some stupid bullshit (I literally just ripped the class name off of one of the ranks from the game Ratchet: Deadlocked and gave a type of ship that sounded expensive), but Chris beat me to the punch. Bravo.

      Want to get disappointed in them even more? Google “concierge” status. Tldr is if you spend $1000 you get access to a second “store” that has more expensive packages, some going for $40000 or more. Some of the more expensive packages are only available if you spend $10000 or more already and get the “wing commander” level.

      It’s literally a “I’m a whale” sticker that unlocks shit to buy for ridiculous amounts of money. Gaming journalists don’t know about it because you need to spend a ridiculous amount of money on it already, so nobody covers that bullshit.
