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

Having something tangible can have perks. Steam bans you. Thousands lost. Online service shuts down. Games lost. I can still fire up this here super Nintendo... And nobody can tell me when it's going to shut down and stop working.

One of the reasons I prefer to buy on gog. I can just save all my purchases to an external hard drive
