Even though Early Access can be an incredible thing to allow developers to build up their game with the community, and pull in some early funds, it can also go very wrong. And now Valve are making it a bit clearer for you if a game hasn't been updated.
I mentioned Factorio further up for the same reason. People had literal tens of thousands of hours logged before the game even hit v1.0.0. There were people saying that they were seeing conveyor belts and assembly machines in their dreams.
