Will the project start in 2010? Why until now ICO open source project calling for capital?
What are the advantages of the project compared to other ICOs?

As you may know, the server backend for MMOs with "a lot" of players is very demanding - which is why MMOs often go down when they launch or in other ways experience server problems. Artplant's server technology for Battlestar Galactica Online initiated in development in 2010, and when BGO launched the server worked flawlessly for 6 months before a planned maintenance break. That is pretty stellar in the MMO world.

The project concept was finished in June 2017, and since then we have been working on detailing the project, assembling the team, building partnerships and starting with the blockchain technology architecture. It is still early stage, this Pre-Sale is the absolutely first round of funding for the project.

Advantages of this project vs other ICOs:
Great question. First of all, most game related projects are trying to be a platform in one way or another. This is an appeal to the traditional VC/fund way of thinking - a business that scales. However, the fact that blockchain games/worlds are in nature decentralised and "owned" by the token holders instead of companies trying to profit, means that such a project has every incentive to develop its own technology and not make someone else rich unless the project absolutely need the solution. So, instead of platforms it is better to invest in Decentraland, Parsec Frontiers and others that form the front lines of blockchain gaming.

As in the real world - money is backed by an economy. Cross-world tokens makes no sense, as you could just as well use a mainstream cryptocurrency instead. Instead, each game or virtual world will have its own token. And joining a project means that you will have to evaluate the project on its own merits.

Parsec Frontiers is a project with grand ambitions. We are building a copy of the Milky Way, gamified with exploration, resource extraction, combat and empire building. All assets are on a blockchain, fully verifiable - which means the economy will have the confidence of all players. This transparency makes it easier to form an opinion on what resources are over- or undervalued. And connecting the token with exchanges makes it easy to move money in and out of the virtual world.

Blockchain-based virtual worlds and gaming worlds will become a HUGE part of the blockchain future. When everyone is FUDing about cryptocurrencies not having any real value or function - that is where a blockchain-based game is completely different. Inside of the world both assets and tokens have a real value and provides advantages and ownership in a way that all participants of that world will place a value on. The value will of course be up to the players/participants to decide - in a free, open and transparent market.
