Excited for this and perfect for the Steam Deck, but I doubt I'll get it yet. The early access aspect is putting me off, and I'd rather play the full game.

Exactly my thoughts. Without a doubt I WILL buy it, but I have enough games in my backlog that I don't need it in early access.

Especially for games with a lot of end game or story driven elements. Depending on how they roll out changes you can find you ended up missing content.

Yeah...

I mean, there have been some pretty good roguelikes that have fit the Early Access model well -- low-cost, iterative development, incorporate player feedback.

But on the other hand, I'd have also said that Kerbal Space Program 2 would also fit that model well, and it just got killed off this week, had a failed Early Access.
