To all of you "I cancelled my pre-order" morons...

Destiny has around 2.6Million pre-orders. Gaining about 100k weekly. The 100k will most likely jump to around 500k for the last week of pre-ordering. So figure around 4million sales day 1. This game will be on the list of best selling games day one. Your cancelled pre-order means nothing. You will account for a 0.000025% drop in sales. No one cares.

  • I think you aren't perceptive enough to understand what canceling a preorder means to some of those "morons." Some of these folks will play Destiny eventually, they just aren't going to plunge in $60 bucks feet first. They may gamefly the game, play it at a friend's house, read the reviews and watch the board comments. Some of them may wait till one or both DLC'S drop and the servers stabilize. Some of them are primarily PVE players who may want to see just how grindy the game is and how fast you can do it all. Voting with your wallet and canceling a preorder is not a once and forever Destiny be damned decision. And whether or not it makes a difference to Bungie is a moronic statement. Of course a sure purchase moving to noncommittal or no purchase is important to Bungie. Whether or not it is a statistically significant number remains to be seen. I don't fault people for thinking twice about where to put their entertainment budget; sometimes I take a flier and sometimes I wait. I'm in the same boat with shadow of mordor-- do I wait or preorder?
