Yup. I’ve made a rule for myself to buy only finished indie games. AAA games are way too long anyway. And paying $70 for an oversized hard drive hogging bugged out mess is just wrong. No beta, no early access, no pre-order. When in doubt replay Stardew Valley to soothe the soul.
I avoid AAA games because…well they’re corporate crap, simply put. I don’t like how they operate as a business, I don’t like the aggressive monetization, I don’t like how they treat their creative staff…so I buy from small studios and indies.
I do occasionally buy games in early access. I typically join the campaign fairly late, I don’t kickstart three pieces of concept art and a “now hiring programmers,” I want to see a pattern of updates along with regular communication that shows a pattern of being honest and transparent. I’ll join in when the game is already in a playable and fun state.
