    Yeah, I’ve been burned a few times but things like this and Rimworld (back when it was still EA) redeem the concept of early access for me.

      Oh absolutely, I have quite a few that just died and went nowhere. Then you’ve got games like you mentioned, Rust, Planet Crafter, 7 Days to Die, The Forest, Sons of the forest… Well, I think it’s kinda obvious what kind of games I like now. And most start in EA, which is fun to watch evolve. I’m definitely more picky these days though due to the small graveyard of other games that went nowhere.

        You’re a person of good taste! 7 days to die is the go-to co-op game in my friend group, and my wife and I are big fans of The Forest (still haven’t gotten the sequel but I hear it’s great).

        As for bad early access games, I literally have a category in my Steam library called “mistakes” where they live so I can hide their shame.
