That's so rough

I see. That's a niche in which it can have a financial benefit then.

Doesn't apply to most markets I'd wager.

I think in that situation I'd probably sit it out and pirate. Wait for the price to drop/stabilize if you really want a license.

That and preordering a digital product that literally can't run out has no benefits.
You just put down money for something without any idea what you're getting.

Preordering physical copies used to be a thing because shops would run out of them.

It sounded like they're gonna be online only pve event missions akin to the junkenstein ones. Is that the case?

I keep reading about Outer Wilds. I think its about time this summer.

To answer the question: Risk of Rain 1&2

And maybe the leviathans of my childhood. Ocarina of Time, Majoras Mask..

I also got hyped and joined the launch day queues when i was a kid. But then we as a community got burned again and again.

Like even the most casual gamer must get pissed off by broken servers.

Is it gonna be on gamepass?

Such charm when i cant play the game I paid hard earned money for 🥰

Its not a protest its common sense.

I dont know the product. I wait for the review embargo to lift. Then i wait for AT LEAST release day to hear if its broken/servers are down (hello diablo 4) or its just shit.

I can still literally buy, download and play it that same day if its amazing.

...with sub 30fps performance reported after release.

Preordering has literally zero advantages.

Sometimes artificial ones like preload but thats negligible in our modern tech era.
