Yes, buying Early Access of any Steam title always gives you the final game

At least for me this is a lot bigger as if World Tour and Sigil had been published together.

Why the fuck people care about these self proclaimed important vloggers?

Nah dude, those two guys are really cool and make fun and informative vids. They're not like the standard shitheaded "influencers," they do it for the passion.

Because they're actually not self-proclaimed. They've garnered viewers because they make great content that they like. The fans have spoken, not Civvie or LGR.

Sometimes not even then! Patches, bugfixes and all that.

Once Ion Fury is released this Thursday, will the game be updated to its full version across all the stores where it's being sold at the same time? (Steam, 3DR, GOG, etc). Or is it gonna be in a specific order?

None of us devs have direct access to 3DR or GOG backends so it is impossible to make precise promises on timing, however I doubt there will be any issues preventing a simultaneous unlock.
One time (update 4) was kept out of GOG and 3DR for months as it wasn't release-stable and it took us longer than we anticipated to fix it.

You don't have direct access to 3DR or GOG? That's really surprising. I'm surprised the devs haven't had a chance to address that.

You don't really have a neat API to push things on your own for GOG like steam does.

Also about the youtubers; LGR is in general just an optimistic nerd and he never claims to be anything else. He's a lovable dork.
Civvie has been critical about games, whether old or new, while still finding positives about them. He's usually spot on about any critiques as well. Watch his Pro Doom or Pro Blood videos and you'll realize this dude clearly played the shit out of these games in the 90s and isn't some pretender.
Also his review of Fresh Supply review where he calls out GGGManLives won me over completely. I have a feeling GGGMan is going to be a contrarian when it comes to Ion Fury.

We make a build. Build will be whatever game content.
We push it to Steam, people on Steam play it.
We pack the content in an archive and send it to 3DR. They double check there's nothing weird and upload it (usually within 24 hours).
We send the same package to GOG.
GOG rips the entire package open and repacks everything with their own configurations, installers, etc and sometimes mess it up (yay).
They upload it when they feel like.
I understand wanting to buy DRM free games from there, but there is nothing very pretty about the process. Apologies for anything appearing late on their platform and I wish we had full control. We are planning on having things as coordinated as possible besides that potential roadblock of how GOG does things.
