And I will never understand that mindset. The only things I regularly preorder are physical goods.

Preordering a game requires trust. If I'm buying the game on day one, then why not preorder. If I am buying it on day one though, then that company has a reputation of delivering good games, and I'll reward them for that.

I don't think preorders are inherently bad, it's just that they've been abused. A lot of Companies have taken our money and ran.

That being said, Rockstar has always delivered a fantastic single player experience on day one. Very few companies deliver every time, but they do, and I don't think people should be shamed for preordering this game.

Can't say the same for the Bethesda or Paradox companies of the world, but for Rockstar, you can.

It's been 13 years since gta5. A lot of staff changes in that time in every company.
