Honestly, if the idea of no trials don’t bother you, there are plenty more reminders why YOU shouldn’t preorder.
You don’t say? 🤔
I miss the days of game demos
Steam’s Next fest has brought back some demos on PC. You might not get a demo for a big IP, but you can try lots of smaller dev games without having to buy first.
My local currency is devaluating by the second, the price I see today may not be the price tomorrow.
FF16 wasn’t preordered as much as they wanted. Then when the game turned out to be okay, people bought it (and it had a demo). It was a hit.
Honestly every game I pre ordered I have been happy with especially bg3.
I usually only pre order when I’m 99% sure I’m gonna love the game and it’s made by a company with a good reputation of having games be good at launch Ex: Zelda tears of the kingdom
But… why? What benefit does it give you?
To get it on release if you want the physical version.
I already pre-ordered both Diablo 4 and Baldurs Gate 3 this year and am quite happy I did both.
What is the main motivation for that though? Being able to play the games a couple of days earlier?
A couple of days? BG3 started letting people play the Alpha almost 3 years ago (october 2020) if you pre-ordered.
I pre-ordered baldurs gate 3 after playing the developers previous game divinity original sin 2 and hearing a rather large amount of praise for the content available in the early access.
It’s something I wouldn’t regularly do but in their short line of recent games Larian studios have left a very good impression on me and I trust them individually.
Behave yourself, you just want to have gay sex with a bear
Did you pre order or buy early access? Buying a game in early access when you believe what is currently in the game is a good deal for the price is the same thing as buying a released game in my opinion.
DOS2 is such an insanely good game. BG3 is shaping up to be just as awesome.
It’s installed when I want to play it. Usually the counter I hear is that internet is fast enough where that isn’t a problem. This is an argument, that gamers use to contend when the idea of online only was considered by Microsoft. The fact that I can preinstall 100GB of data beforehand at my leisure is worth it.
Especially now considering that steam offers free refunds up to 2 hours of gametime or 15 days after release? Realistically on PC there is very little reason to argue against it at this point in my opinion (obviously this is referring to PC, no need to do that for Consoles that don’t provide these opportunities.
This isn’t really a pro preorder, I just lost my frustrations with it when the risk was mitigated
Normies will continue to pre-order games. You are just shouting at clouds. Please stop wasting our times with these posts. The battle was lost years ago.
misread instructions, preordered all the games for those sick skins
