    Why? I’ve preordered all my recent games. Not getting this one, not a fan of the game style, I’ll play it when it’s either cheap or free.

    I preorder GOW, Hogwarts Legacy, Jedi Survivor and Burning shores recently and enjoyed them all, got FF16 on PO now as well.

      Dunno about GOW, Burning Shores and FF16. Hogwarts Legacy is slightly disappointing content-wise, from what I heard. Jedi Survivor was an unoptimised, unfinished mess on release and apparently still is. I wouldn’t wanna pay 90CAD for crashing, stuttering game.

      It’s kinda the same reason people are careful with Kickstarter promises. They may not be fulfilled.

        I definitely heard about some of the Jedi issues, but I had 1 crash in my entire 20+ hour fidelity play through. No hiccups, glitches, stutters or anything.

        Al lot of what I heard was things like frame drops, but fidelity is capped at 30FPS, I much prefer to play a game at its best looking as I am some strange mutant of a creature that has absolutely no perception of frame rate.

        I could not, and still cannot tell the difference between my 60 and 120hz iPhones. My 120hz Mac is connected to a 60hz external and I can see the difference in colours, but that’s about it.

        I suppose it’s possible I may have had some of those issues and and was just completely oblivious to it.

        Hogwarts I also quite enjoyed, some thing got a bit repetitive, but that had was less with the story and more with the trophies, and that’s a trophy side effect with many games, but I enjoyed it enough for it to be the first game I actually cared slough to platinum.

        I’ve actually only ever backed 1 kickstarter and got the thing, but ya I’d probably never do it again. This was back way before they got the reputation of being a great way to pay for an illusion.
