I didn't know because I wasn't following the game. I have bought several games on early access that were rough, to say the least, and they turned out fine or even great later. If you sell your game on early access and areclear about what people are getting for the set price, people will understand (most of them at least).

It really sounds like they are going to ask for a controversial price with a lackluster game and they fear people will criticize.

If, for example, you sell me an Early Access game with barely 1h of gameplay at 30€, of course I'm gonna be pissed. But if the game price is set at 10€ and looks nice, I'll probably buy it and either wait for it t be more polished or try it and see if I can give some feedback.

And this is what happens with most EA games

that's all valid, but then why are you mad that they hide it so only informed people can find it and don't make it available to a lot of probably uninformed people?

I'm not really sure where do you see I'm mad. I just exposed my opinion on what they are doing.

It looks to me as if they were wanting to avoid criticism that they know they will recieve and I simply said that it may or may not work.
