I got a lot of entertainment from The Day Before, at least living vicariously though Youtube with it.

The closest I check this game out, is on this forum. As Rael posted, giving this game your CC info, would not be advisable.

Best case scenario, this "game" lures suckers in for potential cash-grab opportunities in their store(s).
Worst case scenario, they're trying to capture real-life personal info for dark webz tomfoolery.
Regardless, there's no fucking way I'm touching this shit.

What is concerning about this, is that this is likely to happen more and more. Unreal engine has tons of fairly high quality store assets to make just about any type of games. It's also at the point where it's fairly easy to procedurally generate worlds. There's ton of code available for about any type of game mechanics, UI etc...
Add AI to the mix, it will just become easier to do scam like these. Some will probably do it well enough to actually put out enough of a game to avoid lawsuits and stuff.

The Day Before was funny, because I was like "Oh, at least they have a nice map built. They just need... stuff in it?"
And then I found out they bought the map from the Unreal store as-is basically. That's why it seemed so familiar, as it was probably a cut-and-paste from The Division or The Division 2. Those fucking nerds didn't even build the one thing about that game that looked like they put any effort into it.

Was hardly a pump, it was a year ago and when I came across the trailer I thought it looked interesting and since there was no thread about it I made one and literally said it "looks interesting." My intention was simply to put it on our radar and have a place to discuss it as more information was revealed. The same reason I started the thread on Throne and Liberty. As it turns out, both games suck, for different reasons, and I'm currently 0 for 2. Thanks for the reminder.

"We are offering the first closed beta for free". Also, "the first closed beta is entirely covered in NDA, but wait until the next beta and you'll see!!!".
"In other words, we have previously released an MMORPG game". Also, "we launched an open beta of Kayra Online, before we shut it down because it had too many dupes and bugs and switched to Quinfall."

The whole "we use ready-made asset to speed up development" argument goes out the window when you consider they're showing off those assets as promotional pics for the game on their website.

No idea about these guys, but any indie team making a reasonably complex game would be delusional to NOT use as much from the asset store as they possibly can.
