So you admit you're outraged because you don't like Blizzard and not because preorder systems in and of themselves are "bad"?
They sold an unfinished game but you like them so it's ok if they do the thing you say is horrible for other companies to do. Or is it because they sold BG3 multiple years before the game was even close to finished so it's totally different from offering pre-order bonuses on a game that is presumably already basically finished?
Oh I do not care much about preorders if I am getting the game anyway - so yes you are right. I hate Blizzard - you are right again!
BG3 was advertised completely in the beginning to be early access from a very bare minimum with warnings about such. Are you being obtuse on purpose because it's listed right on the front page.
Will I enjoy BG3 in Early Access?
Having been in Early Access for a while, Baldur’s Gate 3 is a relatively stable experience with many hours of content. However, though we incrementally add classes and features in the lead-up to launch, it contains approximately 1/3rd of the game.
They also let you know what is coming (Regardless if it has been for a while or not, it's right there)
How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?
“The full release of BG3 will include all of the classes and races, and most of the spells and skills contained in the D&D Player’s Handbook, as well as Act 2 & Act 3 of the story of Baldur’s Gate 3.”
A release target for launch:
Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?
“Baldur’s Gate 3 releases August 31, 2023.”
Maybe I missed something here in our little tit for tat. Are you saying an open beta preorder bonus in the state Blizzard is in (A bunch of talentless whiney ass mentally unstable fucks who can't be half assed to hold onto a job in QA because their talent cannot even encompass filling out a 5 minute bug report without getting carpal tunnel and saying their hand got raped or their keyboard was racist) relying on the public to do their QA for them and paying for that on top of it - - equates to a well reputable publisher who needed the funds to make the game they wanted, launched a game early access, told everyone what the deal was about it, and gave them timelines and welcomed all their input on development for the final launch?
I have not purchased BG3 yet because I am waiting for the full game to launch. But if I was really passionate about it, I wouldn't have any qualms with myself or others who want to be a part of the development process. And they lay it out.
Also who said D4 is unfinished? I never said that. I do not know, nor care, what state it is in. What I find hilarious is what Blizzard has become bending to these mentally retarded jackoffs to the point they need to have the public test their game for them because their "employees" are protesting the office doesn't have gender neutral bathrooms or they actually have to show up to the office so people can see how worthless they really are, as the consumer does their job for them and these idiots somehow manage to stay employed.
Juvarisx post. I still remain extremely skeptical.
Penance
I'll stop with this back and forth and grab some popcorn and watch this fucker derail into a hate thread after this game launches.
