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

It's the job of marketing to convince you to spend money on things you don't need. There is no benefit to preordering. They have proven this to us time and time again, with so many new examples just this past year alone.

Stop feeding the machine. Be a patient gamer.
