I propose 2024 is the year of early access games boycott.

Bring back completed games only.

There are thousands of great game that wouldn't have got off the ground without early access, so not participating could absolutely change the quality of the final product. In many ways, early access in one step removed from crowdsourcing, which is an investment in an idea.

Investments aren't necessarily about leveraging capital to generate more capital. It would be a very sad life to live where everything must be categorized by ROI.
