Lots of games take years to develop. Fuck off with that bullshit headline.

11.5 years is certainly am outlier

Develop is one thing. Taking money for 11.5 is another.

That's what Early Access is about, right? And it's not like other fuckers who release in EA and then just abandon ship after getting paid/releasing some minor patches for an unfinished game and call it "full release" (looking at The Forest for example)

What if that's the difference between eventually having a game, and never having a game? You know what you are getting into when you buy an EA: it's a risk you have to accept. Or, don't, and just wait.

They did a good job. Try enjoying things for once in your life.
