I also uninstalled after 2ish hours, but had the good sense to refund. What I got wasn't worth 60 bucks, and I'm not gonna pay for a promise. This then starts falling under the "don't pre-order video games" category, and I absolutely just will not do that.
There were too many delays already, the game was way too broken to be even sold at all (even as early access), it was literally a sea of red flags.
Early access is fine for indie studios with a couple of devs. It's fine for games 10-30 bucks. It isn't ok for games that cost 60 and are backed by a multi-billion dollar publisher or parent company. One of the reasons being that this publisher can pull the plug at any time, cause share holders are unhappy, which is exactly what happened.
