This is one thing devs need to stop doing whether early access or AAA. Stop giving timelines for the babies to cry about. Deliver an amazing early access experience like this and simply trickle out the updates as they are able. This is a small team with overwhelming success and this game isn't going anywhere. Enjoy the 30-50 hours of gameplay for the paltry price of admission and move on until they issue some significant updates. Asserting this is like other early access that have been abandoned is just a troll's shortcut to thinking.
