The game is great but you are delusional if you think they aren't laughably slow at providing the promised updates. In all honesty the game is quite close to what it was at release with some edge case improvements to the mountain biome with the caves and a few items in the hearth and home update. At this rate they are literally years away from completing their original vision.
I get you and others may be impatient and have expectations from games that have larger teams and outsource their work as well and cannot ground your expectations accordingly.
You want more, we get it. You're not going to get the pace you want and will remain upset. We get that too.
There are plenty of folks fine with their pace because they bought this game in a more grounded manner from a 10 member dev team and didn't subscribe to the hype thinking erroneously this was a Triple A studio pumping out significant content every month.
Acting like years in EA is a rarity is also a bit silly. Games stay in EA for years. Ark was in EA for 2 years, and didnt really have a dev team for the first year solidly either(they had 3 outsourced studios making the game and even the first dlc(scorched earth was 97% done by one such studio in tandem with the work else wise for the first year). Games also dont enter EA and still present content slowly over time too.
baldurs gate 3 will be in EA indefinetly according to the devs. and they have a huge team at larian. maybe that has changed since i last checked though. i've waited 20 years for BG3 =. i don't know what the delays are about though. was supposed to release this past march. but my point is sometimes these games do stay in EA for more than a few months or a year
