I’m a bit of a heretic, because I think that a game should be released when it’s done.
Indie devs don’t live in an ideal world and I have a hell of a lot of patience for them. They’re the perfect candidates for early access because it lets them get a bit of money coming in before final release, plus free QA testing.
But I have absolutely zero patience for “triple A” studios who throw breathtaking amounts of money at a project only to release a buggy mess for the sole reason of hitting an arbitrary deadline they dreamed up, and call it “early access”.
