    Does not matter, it is laughable. These words completely lost their meaning. A game is made public, reaches it’s peak and then slowly drifts into obscurity. So the live cycle of most games. And at the end of that, after many years, it is still not actually released.

      I can’t tell if you watched it and are just commenting on it, but the video makes direct fun of games that do that.

        I did not watch it. I played that game many years ago. I also played other games that die/do the same thing. I also know about many other games that do it. Which is why I am fed up with this nonsense. They are destroying the market for early access the same way advertisers destroy their marked with more and more absurd ads.

          What nonsense exactly ? That some devs are upfront about the quality/features of their game ? (And it’s not like Satisfactory is drifting into obscurity since they seem to have sold like the double of copies compared to Factorio by now.) Also, it was released, just like Baldur’s Gate 3 was released 4 years ago (though only Act 1, just like the first release of Satisfactory had a lot less features), but since I’m extra-hyped about BG3, I’m going to wait another year, for that mandatory yearly Larian “polish” update…

          So you’re… fed up with a dev that’s specifically not doing what you’re complaining about, and you refuse to acknowledge that it’s something they’re avoiding.

          K. You do you.
