  • No, it just doesn’t make sense to me to do so. I mostly play single player games, so special skins to show you preordered are pretty pointless, and the most you tend to get is a discount on some DLC that I can just buy later, once I know I’ve enjoyed the game enough to warrant it, or items to give you a stat boost.

    It’s not like preordering a physical game, where at least I get an art book or something in exchange for handing my money over.

    While simple, it can honestly be kind of fun to just go in and let them know. When I was recently laid off, it went something like this.

    HR: “I know this might be a shock–”

    Me: “Yeah, you’re letting me go, I know. Here’s my work laptop and badge, I’ve got all my stuff in a box outside, what do I sign? Trying to catch the next train home, so I have like 20 minutes.”

    It totally threw off my boss and the HR lady trying to do their sombre, dignified thing, and was pretty funny to watch.
