That's an opinion not a fact. I don't think you know the difference. "Ridiculous" is a subjective value judgement, nothing factual about it. People can trust a game or film studio based on their past experience if they want to, nothing ridiculous about it. You are still projecting your own moral value judgments onto other people's choices.

After D1 you would still trust them? Also even if you are so keen why pre order anyways? You are still going to play it at the same time as every one else? They can print infinite digital copies. What, you get free a cosmetic? Lol All you do is show them (devs) that they can treat you like an ATM in the future. Bungie at their studi now: Hah, look at those idiots throwing money at the screen and we haven't shown anything.

Personally I haven't pre-ordered and won't be. I've never pre-ordered or paid for a video game. I have every Destiny release and DLC, mostly digital collector's editions and I have never payed 1 cent for any of it. I'll get D2 for free by the same means... However, I am defending the right of other people to buy what they want with their own money. You think pre-ordering makes a huge difference to the quality of the released product, I believe it doesn't. I have worked in the games industry, you probably haven't. I respect your right to your opinion though, I just disagree with it. Have a good Easter weekend anyhow.

Edited by DeadlyMenace: 4/14/2017 12:57:48 PMMy [u]opinion[/u] is you are an idiot who will continue to argue because you're more than likely a child or young adult who "thinks" they know best because they read something about business once. The [u]fact[/u] is, I'm muting you because I can't reason with an idiot.

Child resorts to personal insults after losing the argument. And working as a developer in the games industry, we'd all love to know what a "developer biased condition" is. Developers are all about the product. Marketing is all about the sale, the promotion and hype. You propose that micro-transactions are aiding the developer i.e. improving the product whilst holding the opposite view. Bye bye Dumbo
