I can't justify spending $80 on a game I won't own. (lemmy.world)

Can't use the word "buy" if you can't actually buy the thing.

Not sure if it's the same where you live but where I live, there are high interest rate bank accounts that require a minimum spend per month. A pre-order could help you hit that maybe. I don't know that's the only thing that comes to mind. Plus if it's on Steam, you could refund if it turns out bad anyways. If it's not on Steam, however, welp.
