Edit after seeing it for the first time: They should really male the text bigger IMO and/or add an extra disclaimer when it’s added to the cart. Like “The Early Access game you have added to your cart hasn’t had an update in [insert time] would you like to continue?” And highlight the item.
After this line the rest of the comment is unchanged.
Depends on the game really, but in general I agree.
Some early access games have the core gameplay loop done they’re just not feature complete, and some early access games didn’t nail the loop before being abandoned. Some are barely functional when abandoned, and some are thinly veiled tech demos.
And some early access games have been in early access forever constantly ballooning in scope and will likely never leave early access. And some came with an initial scope that should’ve been a huge red flag for everyone but then they basically went into “maintain appearances” mode (scams like Star Citizen)
