I'd rather look at the bigger picture... Pick any of the their updates and be underwhelmed. They basically only sold a great idea, then cashed out.
21 updates so far over the course of the 15 months since release and the updates have been coming out at a reasonable frequency.

That appears to me as solid developmental consistency and in no way looks like a cash-out.
While I can appreciate your disappointment with your remark, "any of the their updates", I cannot accept your conclusion. Development has not ceased and it continues. That is not a cash-out by any definition.
You may well have been sold on their great idea, but it appears that you have a lack of understanding of the scale and length of the development process.
Most games that reach a successful release from Early Access do so after several years and the average is usually around 5 years.
Your conclusion and the comments you made in your review say more about your expectations, minimal experience of EA titles and game development in general, let alone a clear lack of patience...
which begs the question, if you have no confidence in Iron Gate and their game, then why are you still here?
