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

I preorder physical stuff only, especially titles which are going to be in limited quantities due to low interest and number of copy printed.

Where I preorder still has a 7 day return policy as well so if it’s seriously bad or broken like Cyberpunk 2077 then I can just return and get my money back.

Don’t normally do digital preorders since it’s hard to cancel it and usually no point.
