I just want to buy a game that's actually finished. Early Access has ruined that first play experience.
Depends. Like Satisfactory, I'm extremely satisfied by their pace of development.
So, you could say you find their pacing Satisfactory?
Pun police: Stop right there, criminal scum! You have violated the law. Pay the court a fine or serve your sentence!
I swore off early access after Phoenix Point. It sucks to already be bored with a game before it has the major kinks worked out.
Dead Cells is kind of a counterpoint, though. I'm not sure if I got it as "early access" per se, but since I bought it, they made some major balance changes that completely changed the meta, and those changes got me playing way more enthusiastically than I was before.
Few games do it well, and I suspect we are getting those games because of early access. Other games exploit it, they can get fucked
