I guess I could understand if you spend $110 on something like an Earthbound cartridge, but this game's not even out yet. At best, all one's seen of a game before release are carefully curated videos and screenshots; those aren't guarantees the game will be of a high quality or even be finished.
Maybe I just sound like a dinosaur, but pre order culture just sounds ludicrous to me.
Don't worry, you are sane, they are fucking stupid idiots. It exists for the same reason spam email is a thing. Because jackasses actually respond to it.
The golden dildo they used to fuck them in the ass. Except anyone dumb enough to be playing that game right now probably enjoy it.
That and well if the tweet is correct people stupid enough to give Ubisoft $110. Then probably bitching they can't pay their bills and need communism.
Why do you think people do this?
