Pre-ordering digitally distributed games is so pointless, but even more so right now. At least wait for the review embargo to end.

But it's even worse with a Bethesda game.

Exactly my thoughts. If nothing else, this year specifically should hint everyone that triple A doesn't mean finished release. And being among the first to beta test something for mega corp? No thanks. I'll wait and see.

Lots of people say they pre-order so they can preload it in advance and play it the minute the launch goes live.

....but if it's a buggy mess they won't be able to play it regardless.
