MODERATORS
Well baldurs gate 3 was in beta early access for 3 years and it turned out to be an absolute masterpiece.
Your anger is misplaced.
Gamea would be better across the board if the developers and publishers all worked with players and tested the games properly.
There is abig difference between those two games though. With bg3 you got a limited part of a story driven game. You could never reach "endgame". It was a horizontal demo. You get everything until a certain point.
With satisfactory the early access was the fully playable game from beginning to end. It is vertical. And since then they have just added more things. They will very likely keep doing exactly what they are doing now after the release. In one year the game will have more content than it does now and in retrospect, deciding which version in time is 1.0 is arbitrary.
BG3 will not get a 4th chapter in a year.
And games have been tested long before early access and similar models existed. Just because Bethesda can't test their games doesn't mean everybody else is shit too.
I think the marker of 1.0 is that satisfactorys story is being released then.
