Exactly the part in bold. EXACTLY!

So far, ~99% people I see screaming bloody murder (the game is dead, the devs have took the money and ran, they bought a horse instead of working on the game 24/7, blah blah blah) come from non-developers, and people who call themselves developers because they used some game making program like Construct 2. My goth, they are obnoxious.

I agree that it almost makes me want to suggest to developers not to release in Open Beta/Alpha (Early Access), just to deter from having to deal with these types of people. Then again, at the same time, I say to hell with those people screaming bloody murder. There is a disclaimer warning people that it's Early Access before buying. They need to hold themselves accountable.

20+ years in the industry and no matter which era, there is always the ignorant saying the most asinine things about what and how development is/should be. Always comparing software development with that of factory production line working. [s] YeS lETS hIrE 1,000 pEoPlE tO hAsTeN tHe DeVeLoPmEnT!11 Herp Derp... [/s]



I was an early adopter for Kenshi. Waited 12 years for its full release. While others cried about LoFi abandoning the game, I spent the last 12 years doing other stuff than whine about one game's development process.

Until IronGate has proven, in 3-5 years that development for Valheim is a literal stand-still from a developer's point of view, I know better than to 'hurry' and rage on them about it.
