But when I get vilified over in the Civ 6 forums for merely pointing out that past history has clearly demonstrated that pre-ordering wouldn't be a wise decision until more info is given, then as far as I'm concerned, you deserve what you pay for.
Yes, getting vilified is what the Civ 6 forum is all about, if you don't tow the line. It amazes me that people would throw top dollar at a game that isn't even released yet, from a company whose last Civ product had significant issues on launch. Then, on top of that, get on an internet forum and browbeat people who disagree with the whole pre-ordering thing, in a vain attempt to justify their purchase. I fail to comprehend.
I have given up on posting over there, because:
a) I'm not one of the cool kids and never get answered anyway
b) I'm tired of being called a bully because I disagree with some points raised
c) I'm tired of history being rewritten vis a vis Civ 5
d) I've realized that there is no way to talk sense into any of those people
e) I am a filthy, horrible, demonic, Hell-spawned Anti-Christ because I don't believe in the sanctity, holiness, and divinity of Civ 6 and His Supreme Holiness, Ed Beach
Or, I'm just a cranky. middle-aged lady with some common sense. Take your pick.
