I pre-ordered the game.
Then, very quickly, the full game + all DLC was available for $20. And I was annoyed, because the DLC itself barely went on sale at all. I sure as shit am not about to pay more for it, after overpaying in the first place. So what do I get? Zero DLC. Nice.
I learned my lesson. I’m waiting for the sale on part 2. And on this new prince of persia game.
Pre-orders used to come with sweet incentives, since there’s otherwise no reason to do it. I’ve got cool tins, coins, plushies, and even a working mini harmonica from pre-orders I did in the 2000’s. Now they give you nothing but a few in-game items if you’re lucky. I have no idea why people even do it anymore.
The ONLY two advantages to preordering now are game preloading, and exclusive preorder digital stuff for a game you were already going to buy at full price day one anyway.
/me cries in “Starlink: Battle for Atlas starter pack for Switch” at full price…
