I don’t think that Early Access is meant to convey a specific stage of development. That’s probably why they opted to use that instead of alpha/beta. Maybe developers should be required to disclose their plans between now and release, but I don’t feel that an arbitrary time limit is fair.
Yeah rogue legacy 2 goes very against oc’s demands but did it right. There was a clear path of development of one area every 3ish months, and it would be fairly polished once it was released, but possibly unbalanced. I didn’t feel cheated, but I also don’t think any other early access releases will be that good. I’ve been a huge fan of supergiant games since bastion and am still waiting on Hades 2 to get full release before purchasing, it just seems like it’ll be worth waiting to experience
