Heatman Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 There are so many video games companies out there that makes a lot of games such as Activision Blizzard, Rockstar, EA, Ubisoft, Sledgehammer etc. But there are bigger evil and lesser evils amongst them. Which one of them would you never pre order games from and for what reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 I wouldn't pre-order games from any company as I've been extremely disappointed in the past and was about to be disappointed again but I didn't go through with pre-ordering games like Cyberpunk 2077. Pre-ordering is just not worth it nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 None, that's my honest answer. The name 'Pre-order is what I don't like when it comes to video games. So, no matter how legit those companies might be, I'm not in for pre-ordering anything from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m76 Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 At this point I don't think there is any I'd pre-order from. killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree - Pre-orders always come with some delicious lies and then the release is so disappointing that you feel like kicking yourself for ever doing that.

It's the norm with just most all games pre orders now. It's really a shame that they don't keep their words with what they promise in pre orders.

Empire Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 I only preorder for games I want to play on day one with my friends. Not so much of an issue for those using physical media or with fast internet connections but waiting for content to come out verifying a good port + downloading a modern game and it's been out 2 days for me. For games I know I'm going to be playing with friends, the risk is worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for now, I think that it's only Square Enix that I would be open to making any pre order from if they make any new games that are worth it.

You serious? They'd be first on my don't touch with a 10 foot pole list. After the travesty that was avengers, outriders, and now the uninspired guardians of the galaxy.

Techno Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 None, I may still be an idiot, but even I have lost all faith in companies, now excuse me as I go gush over my preorder of Halo Infinite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oblivion Knight Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 There seems to be little reason to pre-order these days.. Especially when sales come around shortly after have a tendency to immediately knock 30% off the RRP. Patience is a virtue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS5 have been on a scarcity but it never pushed many gamers from considering the option to pre-order it. Instead they kept their cool, and waiting for the console's full release to become readily available before purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't played guardians of the galaxy, so I can't really say much about the game and how it is but as for Avengers, the game's combat system was quite a thing. Apart from the game's lack of substantial content and repetition that marred it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
