For anyone still wondering how complex the economic system is in Star Citizen, a new video from Chris Roberts and Cloud Imperium Games shows off just how nuanced it is in Star Citizen.

In the video, which you can view below, Roberts explains how simple supply and demand and lead to a chain of events that involves everyone from resource gathering merchants to resource-stealing thieves, generating "action and missions" for multiple opportunists out in the starry sea.

Star Citizen, which has been crowdfunded with reportedly well over $13 million, is set to release in late 2014.
