Nah screw that.. don't buy early access games if you don't think it's worth it in it's current state.
Both are true though.
If you want to release your game in Early Access, you should expect to update the game and community frequently.
If you want to buy a game (early access or not), take a look if it's what you want to play right now, never buy any game, software, service or device that is promising the functionality you want will be coming later. If it does come later, buy it then, never buy on promises.
Naw screw that. Don't label it early access if you don't plan to update it from its current state at a rate that the majority of your fan base expects.
That said the dev in this article has provided 3 updates in 3 months. They're totally fine by the expectations of all but the most unreasonable people.
Or just don't buy a game with expectations that don't match reality and then get mad at other people.
Typical gamer brain rot
But my expectations match the norm! You are stupid.
Again, typical gamer brain rot
Obviously not, otherwise this discussion wouldn't be happening. You get that right? This thread wouldn't exist and there would be no point to talk about this at all.
Use some brain cells
OR you are stupid. I'm just not gonna sugercoat it by pretending adding "gamer" to "brain rot" means anything but you exposing your bias.
If you wanna call me stupid, just do that. Don't tell on yourself.
A gamer is the target audience of the article and this community.
So much entitlement with you lol, yeah and the article is calling you out for being whiney children and demanding things from devs at an unnecessary pace.
The article is attempting to move the established goal posts for expectations. Stop shilling for these guys. You don't need to carry their water. The devs know this, which is why they've kept pace. They're just bitching about having to.
It's so unreasonable yet we do it. Woe is us.
Holy shit you're a fucking moron, dude.
The feeling is mutual.
