Steam now warns about Early Access that have not been updated in months. 🕵️ Tip: SteamDB browser extension shows last update for all games.

Excellent feature. One of the first things I check anyways when buying early access games is when the last news post was.

being consumer friendly has brought them more money than any exploitative behaviour ever could have. Getting rid of that would be like butchering a goose that makes golden eggs just so you can get some extra money from the meat.

Butchering that goose is the common tactic of satisfying shareholders temporarily.

Fortunately, their shareholders are still private and they don’t have to go to that level (yet)
