Too many Early Access games

I was on the store home page and about 75 percent of what I saw were Early Access and Open Beta games. Come on, Steam. I'd rather purchase games that have been fully finished or pre-purchase fully finished games. I have DayZ on the grounds that I had the mod so I was aware of what I was getting, but I still feel like we're handing over tons of cash for something that may NOT be finished. DayZ even states that the beta probably won't be out in 2014.

I'd like to see a lot more polished games or finished on the main page and maybe have a link to Early Access sort of like Greenlight has. It's just getting out of hand.

how do you know they will be finished? we have no guarantee? its a gamble.

id say 1/4 of all games on the front page are ealy access or beta's

id be happy buying into a concept if i had a guarantee that all the features promised were going to materialize.

Ok well there is more then just the front page

and these is some what the cold time of games.. not many are been released at these time.. i think when the summer will get here you will see more games released and there for more games on the front page that are not EAG

And by the way over all the front page there are 3 EAG -_- so i do not think that counts to 1/4 at all

And so far we yet to see any game that did not finish some EAG were all ready done.. and are fully released.. some you can see keeps getting updated... and there for yet to see one

im not saying they wont be finished but £20+ is excessive. id be happy to pay incrementaly.

3 out of 13 is about 1/4

many dont even offer demos that would be a start.

if i wanted to gamble id go to a casino.

Well it just mean a little more research or wait and see

3/13? i count 18+ games (did not count the New Releases yet) or did you mean only the feathered window?

Demos are not something that is easy to make.. some EAG cant even have a demo (like how will you make a demo for: Blade Symphony its a fighting game.. i think you can enjoy it just as much with out any thing but the basic moves (great one by the way)

Demos take time to make even more remember these games are EAG you are talking abut games that may have many bugs and you want them to make a Demo that may have too many bugs so no one will buy it? or do you think they really need to take out the Dev time to work on updating the Demo as with the game?

Its not like gamble in a casino, as here you can have more chance to see how it gos. .and ever more you can see who makes the game..
Like in Blade Symphony the dev of the game are Puny Human the same guys that made the Dystopia[www.dystopia-game.com] Mod, and that is why i know i can trust them to finish the game..

As well as seeing that the game get updated all the time

Even more you say its too much? do you understand not only are you paying to help the Dev to finish the game, you also buy the full game when ever its released.. so why do they need to sale it for less? in the end its going to be a full game

Move early access to separate website. Why is it still spoiling the front page? We got enough crap as it goes right now, even the 50euro's so called AAA is crashing and buggy.

Early access is something for woman not for games.

Oh look, another one of these threads instead of reading and posting in one of the other threads that is still open about this subject.

Fact, large developers have reduced the number of games that they release over the course of the year. Fact, they will release games that follow what I call the "make what we know sells" model of game development meaning fewer new IPs if any over the year.

Fact, game development isn't cheap. Early Access allows small and indie dev teams to fund development of the games they are making due to the fact that large publishers are no longer interested in funding small studios and games. At least gamers know up front that what they are buying is alpha or beta code or at least they should be. If they do not do any research, then it is their fault for buying without reading or understanding what is happening.

Fact, even large studios and publishers release flops and buggy games that need fixing. Fact, even large publishers release unfinished games that are supposedly finished and gamers pay a premium for.

We yet to see one that did not get to that line now did we?

And like i say before look and search before you buy... its not that hard lets say these game Earth: Year 2066 With a small search and even just a peak in the reviews i can tell il not get it.. not before they will work hard on it.. it has waaaay to long to go before i will think abut getting it...
As before these games are not on a time limit.. if you do not think it will end wait and see... sit around and see how it go.. read reviews of the games over time many time you will find some users that also do the important things for EAG in there reviews like how much its update dose it look like its moving or just standing in place

ok that is a nice point... why is EAG so much shamed when AAA titles are just as much buggy?

Got more hate for the shameless publishers that cram their unfinished titles as final product in the store for 60 bucks. They should sell their crap as beta tests in the first months, instead of that pre-purchase nonsense. Or test it before throwing it on the market.

At least the Early Access Games are honest about being unfinished.
