minus-squareDnb@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up64arrow-down2·18 days ago People just buy an early access game like they buy a normal game and treat it like that’s the game." As they should tbh They shouldn’t buy it based on future expectations that may never arrive They should buy and okay it for what it is. If it gets even better. Great. If not, they know what they paid for going in.
minus-squaregnate@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up16·18 days agoI see a lot of games that should be “early access” that instead opt for a less functional “full” release.
minus-squareDnb@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·18 days agoIirc that’s good as it allows for a full refund at release
minus-squarepory@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·17 days agoYou can refund early access games too
minus-squareDnb@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·17 days agoYes but not after x hours iirc. But when they go full release you get a no reason refund reset
