so fuck that crap

meh then dont complain about aaa publishers following suit to make marketing and shareholders happy

how is that even an argument

cause i made it one

lol

and?

haha

I wish I could sleep

early access isnt as bad as pre-ordering games that later turn out to be worse than expected

i mean you dont have to agree with me

like your points are idiotic

to you maybe

again ruger you arent the end all of things

im a professional game developer... your a drug dealer

so my opinion is invalid as a consumer

gg

I mean, have you seen the state of WoW?

its easy to shrug me off since i used to sell narcotics?

no, its about how games are made and funded

```[10:29 AM] Baby Gravy: no its just how the world works. either you can afford or convince a company/investor to back you or you dont put out a product.```

in this case the customers *are* the backers lol. they convince customers to fund them via early access

Someone in the game industry would have a better understanding

ruger early access is useful like you said but some developers ruin it for the consumers when they just stop working on the game and keep it early access for a ridiculous long time

instead of investors

thats why i prefer finished games

yah and stay in beta for an eternity which AAA noticed

and realized they can just fix as they go

yes, but you are told that the game is early access

right

you go into it *knowing* the game isn't finished

and might not be finished

Is viscera clean up still in early access?

didnt say they were moral for it. just said its a trend they are latching onto

It's been a few years since I checked

cause it helps shareholders

but it doesnt

Early access is always a bit of a risk by definition but they have to tell you they're in EA by law

season passes etc fall along those lines. dont develop the whole game

trickle it out

dont spend as much on testing cause we can just patch it

No they aren't. Season Pass content typically is released after the initial full release. Early Access is an incomplete product, like it hasn't reached full release.
