Are "early access" perks kinda BS?

Depends on who, but I did for example with Forza Horizon 5, you basically get the season pass that's discounted before release, so get it now and get early acces or get it later and pay more (till a sale happens way later).

Think stuff like the battlepass for NBA2K is way worse, spend 10$ a month for a Tier 1 battlepass but be warned you can't unlock the Tier 2 items....To get those you need to get the second battlepass for 10$ a month..... so yeah people will be spending 70$ for the game and 240$ for a year for the battlepasses and nothing will transfer to the next iteration...
