I don't ore order games and very very rarely purchase before reviews come out. Even then I always set a timer to stop before 2 hours to see if I should refund on Steam.

So, no, not really. It's not a hard no, but it's certainly not a definite yes.

Maybe that's why I feel the way I do about it. I don't pre order games either and I pretty rarely buy games within the first maybe like 6 months of release. So I guess I've never been let down by the hype I'm the same way that plays the game on day one. So if I'm anticipating it and it's a let down but I'm still interested, I'm not paying full price. I'll get that shit during a sale. So I'm going to play it, I might just be less financially invested.
