minus-squareSibbo@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up18arrow-down1·1 year agoWasn’t it also early access? At least some part of it? Or am I remembering the wrong game.
minus-squareNeato@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up35·1 year agoI’m confused why people are upset at early access. It can be done badly to sell a game that isn’t finished for full price. But Larian has always done early access this way: first act for testing. And it works great.
minus-squarebouh@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up26·1 year agoIt was early access for like 3 years. Which allowed them to release a fully finished game, or the closest we had from that state since no one remembers when actually.
minus-squareKurolinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up15·1 year agoThe first of three acts was in early access for nearly 3 years
minus-squareVikingHippie@lemmy.wtflinkfedilinkarrow-up13·1 year agoYup! A couple YEARS early access even, afaik!
minus-squareGeneralEmergency@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down15·1 year agoFacts are for losers. We’ve got nostalgia to bait.
minus-squareMotoAsh@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up25·1 year agoThey are literally the exception that proves the rule. When everyone is shocked that the game was even complete without day1 DLC, you know the industry is fucked.
minus-squareVikingHippie@lemmy.wtflinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 year agoWell it’s very much the exception to a near-absolute rule, so the original point still stands 🤷
