    Yeah, I get that there are some bad actors there, and its a gamble. Just feels like you’re an old dude yelling at the clouds. It’s an outlet for small developers, and obviously it’s a popular avenue for that. People can invest in games they believe in, and if they can’t take the gamble they can stay away from it. There’s no logical reason why you care about what the rest of us do if you’re not into buying early access games.

      If game developers can release games that they get paid for but aren’t actually complete I think that has a negative effect on everyone.

      My broad view is that early access is actually anti-consumer. You pay for a subpar product with the ‘promise’ of future improvements.

      As a consumer you can vote with your wallet but you’ve already given them your money, what pressure realistically can you apply to a developer that abandons a project? It was early access after all, what did you expect?
