Honestly, if the idea of no trials don’t bother you, there are plenty more reminders why YOU shouldn’t preorder.

    Nobody, not once, has said ‘it is not your choice’. This always gets brought up like that’s what the argument is. Make the stupid choice all you want. Be our guest. What we’re saying is “if you pre-order this game, you have zero right to: complain about its content for ANY reason, bitch about release delays, or complain about the constant degradation in release quality of ALL games (because like it or not you’re the reason why this happens)”. Thing is you won’t though will you? You’ll be first to give a bad review saying ‘I got early access and the quality is garbage!’.

    Let me guess though, you’ll be like “muh, my money, my right to complain about what I want” because taking responsibility for the inevitable consequences of ones actions is for people with actual impulse-control.

      You sure make a ton of assumptions buddy.

      I have every right to complain about whatever I want, whenever I want, and yes i can spend my money on whatever i want however i want. Don’t like it, take your shit and fuck off little man.

      You miss the entire statement of me refunding it if it’s bad? I specifically pay in a manner that allows me to refund or even charge back at will, which impacts the seller equally. How about the point about pre-orders being dumb overall, thats literallyin agreement? Or the referencing of the specifics around pre-orders = no more trials, as stated in the OP.

      Now I’m just gonna stoop to your shit brain level and assume youre a broke ass child who spends money they can’t afford to lose on non-essetinal items, like video games for example.

        The ways to force a refund on a preorder are much reduced over that of straight purchasing the game after release. Pay by Credit Card too far in advance? Request declined. And, considering you already proved most my assumptions correct (namely ‘lack of impulse control’, and ‘muh, my money my right to be a bitch’) already I’ll add another one. You won’t refund a bad product even with the only assured window you get (the small warrantee period you get from things like Steam ie: 2hours) for 2 reasons: 1) you’re a sucker for the BS appeals to patience and tolerance that marketing always puts out when there are ‘unforseen, lul, issues with development’, and 2) you’re so starved for anything to distract you from your miserable life you’ll accept getting your feces pushed in by game companies for the meagre hits of dopamine you get from your pre-purchase rewards.

        Here’s the deal: your life is already so bad I’ll give you permission to make the selfish, impulsive purchase decision only because I’d rather you ruin the game industry than take out your issues on real people in your life (if you have any left).
