Valheim. The early access release was a more complete game than most complete games.
I'd like to add Factorio to this list.
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.
And in the same van of construction games, satisfactory and Dyson sphere program
Yes and then they have released like one meaningful update in 4 years.
They've had a few actually. Three new biomes (plains wasn't really a thing when it first released), three new bosses for those biomes, all kinds of structures and craftables, some new mechanics (you can lay siege to Ashlands fortresses + magic)
It's gotten quite a bit of love over time. Just not as often as some other games. Which is fine, because it is still actively being worked on.
