My point exactly. Are we getting the game before anyone else? Of course not. So, what's the point of preordering? I'm not saying I don't have faith in James, I'm saying that I myself would never order games for the blind. It's not the same as ordering games from large companies for the sighted. I always preorder Mortal Kombat from Midway. But preordering a game from the blind is just risky. We are such a small company. One man companies mostly. Anything could happen. But if you guys want to order, I'm not stopping you. When it comes out, and I check it out, sure, I'll order it.
