Can somebody explain to me the point in pre-ordering?

I don't just mean this game I mean really any of these games.

Does it not make more sense to let it release, let some people get some hands and eyes on it and get their thoughts out in the open and then make a decision?

I feel like these gaming companies really exploit people's excitement level to the point where it gets them to buy something that they know very little about for no real upside other than some silly virtual currency
