that word has lost all meaning. "omg, you paid for a product and expect something? You're sooo entitled" It's ridiculous. Yes, technically we don't have any "right" to know what's going on behind the scenes, but yikes, a lot of EAs pride themselves on this idea that "hey, we're building the game while you watch" kind of vibe, which includes communication like "Hey, here is our weekly update about what we're working on". It's not entitled to be disappointed when that doesn't happen.
Exactly this. Larian is benefiting hugely from this EA process. We’re all paying volunteers here. A little communication from Larian isn’t too much to ask. At least a running list of known issues or acknowledgment of areas they’re addressing would go a long way so we’re not all talking around in circles. They want my feedback? My feedback is I would politely request that they communicate with us more, just like they used to and other studios using EA do.
As you said VOLUNTEERS !! Nobody made anyone purchase the game in Early Access. You are a volunteer, complaining about the lack of a pay-off. You've been told volunteers will get a free party , dinner and concert at the end of the job, and are screaming because you haven't received details on what is being served, who is playing at the concert, what date it is scheduled for - and demanding your favorite dishes and bands because they are what "everyone wants".
