I got to sit around at home with a day off from work (was it Labor Day?) and the only reason I pre-ordered the fancy version was because you could get access a day or two early.
They obviously knew what they were doing with the pricing tiers and release schedules. But whatever, it was the 1st new game I've bought in forever, and the Xbox I bought specifically for Starfield was the first console I've bought since a PS2 back in 2004.
Oh yeah nothing wrong with that, you got all of Labor Day weekend, it was worth it to me I had fun and I hadn’t been excited for a new game in a while.
Well I hope you look forward to paying that holiday tax for every game in the future once publishers catch wind that people are actually desperate enough to pay a stupid tax to have a game “early” for a holiday weekend.
