Honestly, if I were an Early Access Dev, and had people slamming the discussion board and reviews with "No updates in XXX days! abandoned?!" I'd just abandon the damn game. Its not worth the effort and time when people don't understand what they signed up for when buying into an EA title:

"This Early Access game is not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development."

The developers owe nothing to you or anyone, there is a massive disclaimer warning you that the game you bought, may NEVER move to completion. You chose that. You decided to toss some cash at them in hopes if the game being developed.

Just freakin' relax! Chill. Go play something else for a bit. There are THOUSANDS of other games you can occupy your time with, while the devs of this game work on things. Stop bugging them.

Also, take into consideration that this is a very small group of devs, AND we're still in a rocky world-wide apocalyptic Plague situation. they may have things in their personal lives that gets in the way. They owe no one here an explanation every few days or whatever. I wouldn't want to stop in the middle of my personal life situation, just to type out some sad-sap line of bull, to appease some impatient neckbeard gamers online.

Let them do their thing, and you can do your thing. Everyone just needs to chillax! >_<
