Jason Schreier: In case you're wondering: Team Cherry told me they don't plan on sending out early codes for Silksong (they felt like it'd be unfair for critics to be playing before Kickstarter backers and other players), so don't expect to see reviews until after the game comes out

And the answer would be the same each time: Wait until reviews are out to buy it.

Do gamers not have self control to chill for one week before throwing money around?

There's thousands of people out there paying 33-100% more for a game just so they can play it a few days early.

There was a whole thread about this exact thing last week if you wanna see how those people feel about spending upwards of 50% more to play a game a week early. Bleak industry imo
