On the topic of "don't pre-order games! Wait until you know it's a finished product!"
Stop playing Early Access titles. Unless it's a "pre-order and play 3 days early" you're not accessing anything early. That's the state of the game in the now. That's what it is. You're paying full price for an unfinished product, with no promise it ever will be finished.
I'm so tired of seeing a new game "come out" and it's not finished, and I have two choices
Wait for it to actually be finished, perhaps over a year from now. Get hype for it. Watch other people have fun playing it. It comes out. I've lost interest in the meantime. It is now an "old" game despite just now coming out. It's old news. It was a flavor of the month last year
Or actually play Early Access. Do all the stuff there is to do. It's not much. Kind of boring. Frustrated that I'm locked out of so much content. Wait a few patch cycles for it to be "really good" and before I decide to come back to it because there's enough new content compared to when I played. That day never comes. The game is released. I only really remember that it was a percentage of being considered fun and it wasn't really that good, and I don't want to replay back through all the progress I've lost. I don't feel like playing on release.
EA is inherently a cash grab. Its either a death knell for a studio desperate to finish a project, or it's outsourced QA that pays the dev. It's not a fun little treat for all our devoted fans who really just want to help out the little guy.
They've turned "gamers don't want us releasing unfinished games" in their favor. They flipped it onto you where you're perfectly excited to be SOLD an unfinished game, on purpose, to your face.
All of this obviously with a grain of salt. BG3 clearly had a full game waiting in the wings you were just locked out of. Likely the same with Hades II right now. But take the time to consider if you're just burning yourself out on a game that you won't be able to come back and enjoy when it's actually done. Consider if it even seems like it will ever be done.

Raid: Shadow Legends has now reached the inevitable point of the cycle of fantasy themed game that starts with "we also have sexy ladies" marketing where its being promoted by shill accounts on the social media known as Twitter.
But it's not just the presence in the sewer. This is the Google summary:
This the Publisher's own page for it:
Strangely despite the "18+" in the top left corner, the game is still available on the infamously touchy Apple Play Store. So no, we can be very assured there will not even be so much as a nipple in it, let alone anything spicy enough to warrant any 18+ rating.
This is one of the truths behind the "sex sells" argument. It doesn't, this hasn't led to Raid gaining massive sales, dominating over games that don't use sexy marketing, etc.
If you look at the charts for Apple's top games, it's way below things like Roblox, Candy Crush Saga, Pokemon GO, Monopoly GO!, Minecraft and various other cartoony things.
This is with that creepy marketing, and well, why? Well it's just not that impressive in its niche any more.
It's just if you're having artwork made - it doesn't cost any more to add "make it horny" to the notes on female characters, and you'll definitely get endorsements from certain executives.

Amidst a lush jungle, a golden block appears. Do you break it?
My second 3D print! It's so polyganol yet beveled and very bricky, I love my new brick. 💛
