Do you wanna spend 80 dollars on a new game, or wait a year and buy it for 10 dollars when it works and is actually finished?

WHERE CAN I PRE ORDER IT FOR 120 DOLLARS TO PLAY IT 3 DAYS EARLY AND PAY TO BE A PLAYTESTER?

Like i'm not surprised why games are this expensive.

That's the kicker. Getting games on release now feels like early access. I've been hyped for a few games in day one and there's either server issues, driver issues, crashes, what have you. These things are so rushed they need a year to be finished.

By then you'll know if it flops too, avoid getting caught in the hype.
