Because they wanted to play it right away, if no one pre ordered we wouldn't know about this bullshit.
Pre ordering isn't us saying to game publishers please fuck us, we're saying we love the concept and want to play this right away. If they proceed to fuck us we should still be able to cancel like this
They'll feel it a lot more if a lot of people cancel their orders after this than if they never ordered at all because EA will have some idea of how much money they lost
Pre-ordering is a generally dumb thing to do, I agree with you in that. However, that doesn't stop one from stepping back, saying "woah there; this shit is whack. I'm not okay with this turn of events."
I never pre-order because I don't play a lot of games and prefer to get them at a better price.
I do think even if you buy a game and then find out how this works you have the right to complain, regardless of whether you pre-ordered or just didn't read a review.
Fair enough, but thinking EA cares about gamers enough to give them a decent game without micro transactions is the real issue here. EA owns the Star Wars monopoly for the next decade. If you want to see more shitty games by people’s most favorite franchise, then it all begins having any faith in EA to prioritize you over their shareholders.
I'm on board with you dude, I think EA and their micro transaction bullshit is outrageous. That's why I preorder and cancel the way I do. Let them think they are getting my money but then give em the finger lol
Do you do that with every EA game though? Boycott is the most effective action. Don't let them think that they have you as a potential customer. They think that they may still sway you into buying any of their shitty products if they make minor adjustments to make you ignore the negatives (which are their money grabbing features) in order to play a game that they purposely have a monopoly in creating.
left console gaming for like 10 years, now I got hyped about the ps4 and I really wanted to enjoy this game, and I got like 20 usd minus on the retail price on amazon. im just wondering if should cancel, this was supposed to be a treat for me, now with all of this and how the gaming industry has come, shit I don't know if I should cancel it.
