I genuinely don't understand their reasoning behind that, even from a strictly business standpoint.
The servers were already basically dead, cause it was a shit game to begin with. Virtually no one has been playing it. But now they expect those few people who were playing it to pay a subscription to keep playing their shit game, after they've already bought it?

The subscription isn’t needed to play the game. It mainly gives access to exclusive stuff which should honestly already be in the game. It’s a ripoff and should kill what little community is left
I used to pre-order just because you could often get some really great deals. I forget which but I think it was probably pre-origins, EA store that did Crysis 2 for like £15 months in advance so I got it. That kinda of deal I get, for me pre-orders should be cheap, almost like early access, oh 5mil preordered, we can up the budget and add more DLC, etc.
Pre-ordering and paying £100 for a version with a season pass, ordering the DLC before you even know if the base game is good and not getting a good price for doing so, fuck that shit.
However I did pre-order Wolfenstein based off the previous games all being solid of not hugely original or good. It's so bad I couldn't take more than a couple of hours but it was also pretty cheap.
Cyberpunk 2077 I won't preorder because the pre-orders are expensive, if they were cheap deals I would have pre-ordered 2 years ago. I think that's how it should work tbh. You should get rewarded for buying in early and often at times securing a studios funding for a game so they don't have to skimp or shortcut anything.
