Players are now less "accepting" that games will be fixed, say Paradox, after "underestimating" the reaction to Cities: Skylines 2's performance woes (www.rockpapershotgun.com)

If only steam had a way to mark games as "hey, this game is in beta, expect issues". I don't know, making it clear that we were accessing it early or something...

I can't speak for everyone, but I know I'd be willing to tolerate games being a bit buggy if they up front said "we know this game has issues. You can try it now or you can wait until we fix them".

Problem is when things like Kerbal Space Program 2 happen, and they release a buggy mess and charge full price for it and then abandon the project.

I feel like established publishers (Take 2, Codemasters come to mind) should be specifically excluded from the Early Access program, or perhaps price limits should be imposed on games in the program..
