Gamers are urging developers to stop the frustrating trend of announcing new games years before they’re scheduled for release.

I think people really just need to vet who they get their games from better. There are quite a few publishers/developers I can absolutely rely on to provide a great product on day 1, and saying never to trust them that puts them in the same category as the shitty ones which is wrong.

Oh, I absolutely agree.

...saying never to trust them that puts them in the same category as the shitty ones which is wrong.

I've been playing games long enough to see so many publishers walk back on promises to the gaming community. Activision, Bethesda, Square, Ubisoft, EA, Capcom...and a lot more. I pre-order games as well, yet I know that if I'm disappointed with the studio then that's my fault. I bought the game...caveat emptor.

Never trusting a studio to fulfill their promises good advice to a gamer. Always understand that the relationship between the gamer and a studio is tenuous. It's only worth the studio's most recent release.
