At this point, why are you pre-ordering a game (this game or any other)?
Pre-orders made sense 15 years ago, when pre-orders told your retailer how much boxes he should think of ordering, and if you didn't ensure your box on massively popular titles, you might face weeks of waiting until the second production run came to your store.
Pre-orders started to have to include stuff like early access a couple years ago when it became evident that the vast majority of orders would be net-based, with digital delivery, zero possibility of being out of stock, and suddenly, retailers/distributors faced the end of free cash advances. But even with early access. If you think you're going to play for more than a month, your early access means nothing, really. And if you're not going to play for more than a month... why are you so anxious for early access?
No, I really don't understand.
