Honestly, if the idea of no trials don’t bother you, there are plenty more reminders why YOU shouldn’t preorder.

I already pre-ordered both Diablo 4 and Baldurs Gate 3 this year and am quite happy I did both.

What is the main motivation for that though? Being able to play the games a couple of days earlier?

A couple of days? BG3 started letting people play the Alpha almost 3 years ago (october 2020) if you pre-ordered.

Even that perk is going away, no? Starfield makes you get the more expensive preorder to have it "early"

The standard preorder doesn't get shit from what I've seen

Definitely worth me spending 10-15 bucks to play something a bit earlier.
