It's false advertising, so, it should be. But, you can't really sue until you buy the game and were actually fooled by it.
I also don't know if they can get scot free with some tiny letter saying it's still under development.
It's a shitty situation either way.

Though if they do it too often or too obviously, then it still may backfire on them, especially on the long run when the lost trust of the more seasoned players generates a lower baseline for the sales. |
The reason bullshots stopped being a thing is because no one looks at them anymore. We entered a video stage. A bs video definitly gathers more atention.
