It's also easy to burn bridges by canceling early access games. The vast majority of people should stay away from early access games by default because of the risk that the game remains unfinished.

I've got a few "early access" games where the developer lost interest or disappeared. Most infamously Starbase DF-9, but I've got a handful of other games in my library.

Now, I'll wishlist them rather than impulse buy them and then reconsider it when it comes out of early access.

Perhaps there is a better name for what these projects are: "experimental" or "exploratory" access. Something that doesn't so strongly imply their will be a later or finished state.
