I'm normally with you but the opportunity to play it on a long Labor Day weekend was calling my wallet to action.

This is part of the reason why they chose the launch day

That's how I'm feeling.... Reviews are coming in pretty positively. Can you pick it up on steam and play now?

Same, and with Game Pass it was just a $30 upgrade. The only stuff I pre-order is stuff I know I'll like anyway - mainly Destiny expansions and TES/Fallout/Starfield. I'm gonna buy it anyway, why not pre-load it and play immediately?

At least wait for reviews to come out, some are due tomorrow

Being downvoted for sense. What a world.
