I propose 2024 is the year of early access games boycott.
Bring back completed games only.

RimWorld, Subnautica, darkest dungeon, streets of rogue, project zomboid, oxygen not included, starsector, skull the hero slayer, dead cells, caves of qud quasimorph and universim are games i bought in early access that I do not regret in the slightest.
I'd say the biggest problem is these big companies who release "finished" games that are clearly not finished and the people who keep pre-ordering them
Add Baldur's Gate 3 and Hades to the list
Valheim, Grounded, Satisfactory
And Factorio as well.
I think the problem is that it's a gamble, and there's always potential to get burned.
Money up front for something you really have no idea how it is, is stupid.
