Dear EVERYONE.
Please stop releasing "early release alpha" versions of games.

I did not buy this, nor will I ever (just sounds boring as ♥♥♥♥), but I'm really getting tired of seeing early release games put out in incredibly shoddy condition. Especially when it's done in the hopes that the developers will receive funding to support them while they work on a game that they may or may not ever finish entirely.

Solution: If you don't like it, don't buy it. Problem solved.

That's why there's "EARLY ACCESS" written in large type across the product page. People who purchase the game understand what they're getting into, and they want to support it.

If you didn't buy it and don't intend to then:
1. Post your drivel elsewhere as some people do like the game
2. You can't check the condition of this game and hence go read point numero uno

This was for all the people that have a problem with early access. If you don't like it avoid it.
This game is not in shoddy condition. Actually the only thing I'm missing is more tutorials.

Don't even bother giving him a proper respond. Just point at him, laugh and then ignore.

I like buying games that are not yet fully done, if I am totally sure I am gonna like it. Because then I can help finding bugs and mabye influence the dev with my point of view about the game to a certain degree. A 100% turnaround should never happen, but if small improvements can be made by the community to make the game better, then it is a success.

But in the same time I also expect a small discount or at least the same price as on release for that particular game.

Oh I'm sorry, were you forced to buy anything? Did this take up precious space on your hard drive?

Get a life.

Counterpoint....

Dear EVERYONE:

Thank you for having Early Access on Steam! I really enjoy being able to submit feedback and suggestions to the devs. I feel invested in the end product after spending a lot of time playing, testing, and discussing the games in this section. Also, I feel good being able to fund games that I believe will be enjoyable without having to go through a suit-and-tie publisher that may not have the dev's best interest in mind.

Also, thank you for having EARLY ACCESS GAME in gigantic letters at the top! It lets me know to expect buggy, incomplete releases (and that's ok!) so I'm not surprised when everything goes a little screwy.

Dear Strykerx88 you feeling great after posting your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ here ? I dunno what was on your mind to write such ♥♥♥♥ and seems that ppl buy and support that game and there is nothing you can do against it! Anyway great game, no crashes, no freezer, i like it so far.

Funny, two early release games - Prison Architect and Kerbal Space Program get about ten times the playtime as fully finished AAA titles.

While I barely have 12 hours into Bioshock Infinite, and my hour and a half of Tomb Raider has me waiting to finish all other games first, I've already spent 150 hours in Kerbal.

Please bring me more of these games. While Tomb Raider is good, I've seen the gameplay a million times - boring.

It's kind of funny that the guy posting this owns starforge....

This. 100 times this.

lol wtf?
You know this is Bohemia, right? They're not some small shadie indie dev. They will complete the game.
I don't see any problem with an early release. We get it at a very nice price.

You're telling me you wouldn't go buy a cheap tire if a trusted manufacture promised it would be turned into a sport car within a year or two?
