Preordering is just giving a multimillion dollar company a free loan of your own money.
But I have to preorder only to be wildly disappointed so that I get the full NMS clone experience.
It's not really a loan if they don't give it back.
Whats it called when you give money away with no return? In this case, the loan is re-payed when they allow you to download the game you bought months prior.
Gift? Donation?
