I don't.

I only buy EA games that are done enough that even if the devs gently caress off with the money then and there, I'll still be able to look at what I bought and feel like I got a good deal.

Doorkickers, Prison Architect, Gnomoria, and a few others are all EA games that fall in that camp for me.

I'm also willing to jump in on EA games that have a good update history, or the devs have a roadmap they are sticking to. Full Mojo Rampage, Crypt of the Necrodancer, or Book of Unwritten Tales 2 are in this catagory.

Sometimes I'm willing to buy off name alone. I know Klei has delivered on EA games before, and works well with a budget, as such I can likely trust them with Invisible Inc, even if it's not quite done. Gaslamp is goonrun, and they've been pretty open about everything, so I feel if I bought that I'd eventually end up getting something resembling what they promised out of it. I don't do this often though, because I don't want unfinished games on my account, and by the time I buy them, they'll usually be almost done/show they've got a plan.

I've only had one bad case with EA so far and that was Spacebase. Even then it was because I trusted Double Fine as a company, and was willing to buy off the initial pitch. Even then I was slightly disappointed in myself for buying it on day one, because it lacked content even back then. But I learned my lesson from that, so that likely won't happen again.

DOn't use EA as an acronym for early access, I will savagely attack you.
