I just have Steam set up to hide early access games. There's not much reason to play early access when there are so many great and fully complete games you can play in the meantime.

There's a few indie shooters I've played that are officially EA, but have hours of gameplay in their first play though and are very replayable. Selaco is an absolute joy with 9 hours on the main campaign and 22 hours for 100%. Officially EA with only the first episode out.
Oh, that was very much needed, for sure.
A good change. I wish it was more prominent on the page, though.
I wonder what the threshold for this warning is. I follow a lot of great early access games that only put out big updates 1-3 times a year.
The examples I've seen are a year+ with no updates. Not definitive, but I highly doubt they're doing this for the cases you're talking about.
