    I wish this wasn’t like this. Games should not be allowed to be “early access” for years on end. There should be a realistic linitation, because so many games are EA and then abandoned.

      This isn’t early access, it’s advanced access, like if a game has a deluxe edition that lets people play a few days before the official release.

      It’s not actually about Early Access. It’s about Advanced Access – when you pre-purchase a game and get to play it before the official release as a perk.

      Early Access games (=games where the dev knows it isn’t done and puts it in Early Access) already had the same refund limits as regular games.
