In my experience it’s already a lot of fun, but you can definitely feel the alpha+solo dev combo on certain aspects. Still, dwarf fortress has been in development for over 20 years and it’s still arguably in alpha, and just as arguably contains more video game than many fully released ones do. That metric on it’s own doesn’t necessarily mean much.

All very fair points. I guess I should reserve judgement.
No worries! Your skepticism is warranted, given the broader landscape of games that have done early access.
