THIS is Why I NEVER Trust Early Access Games!! - Culling 2/Fortnite Rant
1,734Perhaps the darkest thing in modern gaming is early access. Making gamers pay for unfinished projects feels so shady and now most of these never get done EVER! The release of The Culling 2 really highlights that this is a business built on greed so let's rant about it.

Xaviant wrapped up its "deadly game show" battle royale The Culling last year, pushing the game through Steam Early Access and Xbox Game Preview in October. The studio then announced its shift to a new project in December 2017. That game? A sequel. We're already getting The Culling 2. Fans of the original are less than enthused about the sequel. The Culling got off to a decent start in March 2016, but things went downhill from there. As director of operations Josh Van Veld recently told PC Gamer, "We did dozens of patches and content updates after that, but we never saw our sales or player numbers return after the initial boom died down. To be honest, apart from a passionate core audience, the majority of PC players haven't seen or thought about The Culling in two years." Notably, The Culling 2 will not launch in Early Access -- it's out tomorrow on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. I understand Xaviant's desire for a clean break, so to speak, but winning over old fans won't be easy. Clearly the developers want to compete with Fornite Battle Royale and PUBG but I dont think they even have a chance. Fortnite Battle Royale's gameplay and Season 5 are already too strong for this to find room on consoles.
