Ark Update Adds One of Its Tiniest Dinosaurs Yet

@fyrant: Weird. I played both Prison Architect and Kerbal Space Program through early access, and it was actually a great experience helping such committed and passionate developers to create the game they/we wanted in the way they/we wanted.

These studios don't have the starting budgets of many others, and I for one am more than happy to help them through the process in return for a cheaper game. But the thing you don't seem to be getting is that some of us humans actually enjoy helping people and being part of a larger experience. Maybe you should try it sometime?

@fyrant: There are warnings in place on Steam for everyone thinking of purchasing a game via early access and funding unfinished games will always be a risk especially with unknown developers. Thats the risk you take, but expecting a fairly ambitious game made by a hand full of amateurs to be finished in a few years is stupid -sorry.

Also you mention DayZ like it helps strengthen some immature point you are failing to make. DayZ Standalone only stared its development less than three years ago which still isnt that long to develop a game (maybe you confuse Standalone with the DAYZ mods for Arma II & III? /shrug). Furthermore DayZ Standalone -even in its current unfinished form- is a rather unique experience and arguably the best true survival game ever made.

As for Rust, it doesnt look like my kind of game, therefore I havent played it, but telling people not to buy early access because the games are unfinished just shows how much you are missing the point of "early" access.
