Perhaps that I'm being paranoid but it feels to me that via keywords such as "community input", "early beta access", "episodic delivery" there is a generalization of a model by "old-school" PC kickstarted projects where you in fact buy the rights to a work in progress, at the risk of being totally burned-out on a game when it finally reaches its final state (if it reaches it). I fear that soon only huge console-catering companies such as Bethesda or Bioware will deliver a final PC product (even if bugged) on a given date. For now, be it Grimoire, MMX, Paper Sorcerer, AOD, Eisenwald, as good as they can be, it's always super demo 1.3 of 2/3 of the game, not feature-complete, and I fear that it becomes the norm (not even talking about the WTF model of Deathfire).
I hope that at least Inxile and Obsidian will stick to their plan: an early beta and then the final product, no patch 3.1 for the beta 2.1 nonsense.
