I'm very happy this is finally happening. I know backing video games are risks, but if this ends up happening all over the United States of America, will it be a message that video games in Early Access will also get you a full refund if the video game fails to meet it's deadline of a fully finished product to be released for sale?
The lawsuit is filed by the states Attorney General, not by some private consumer protection group or whatever.
