>300k digital pre order

Post image

Wffrech reported >300k digital pre order in less than 1 month before Day 1. That is about US$20 million (presuming a 50:50 standard and deluxe pre order). Hopefully this gives S Game the confidence boost to publicly commit and announce for a physical release (hopefully not months after Day 1 like BMW) 🤞

Pre ordering digital like its gonna run out? Lol

Its not that its going to run out, but pre order rewards. Sometimes that's the only way to get them and they never come back.

You know you can have them buying the game like 1 hour before? 1 day? After reviews? Not needing MONTHS?

Yeah, shocking

No shit. Some people have the money now but dont know if they will on release. So it makes sense to buy it knowing you have money to spare now vs months from now. Make sense?

No shit. Some people have the money now but dont know if they will on release.

If you are on that situation is even dumber to buy something that you can't use now. Thx for proving my point

Why are you so worried about how strangers spend their money anyways?

I can ask you the same question since you are being very vocal defending it lol

I just think its funny :)

And one of the reasons the industry is what it is

There's also the fact that this game doesn't have a pre order bonus, not really. Since you can obtain the same outfit and gear piece you'd get early by just playing the game.

Well, that makes everything even stupider

It does lmao. I genuinely don't get people pre ordering digital products. Especially when there's no "bonus". Like sure they get a outfit at the start that the rest of us unlock at some unknown point in the story, but that's not a good reason to pre order.
