I honestly have no idea why people are so excited about that trailer.

I'm totally disappointed that the graphics seem nearly exactly the same with very little attention to the obvious issues like bunker edges, from version one.

Also… What demographic are we targeting here?

These comments about luxury houses and building up your status are just a complete turn off to me at least in the way they are worded.

Where is a literally anything showing us or talking about the new swing options and other changes that actual golfers care about?

I have no clue why anyone would pre-order this based on what has been shown so far… Are you really going to pre-order just to get a gold driver or some virtual points?

I'll probably pre-order the game. These guys are trying with a new IP. While I had some gripes last year seems like they are making strides. $40 bucks aint bad and I will get use out of it.

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

It's a publisher/shop thing.
The more pre orders the more copies shops will buy and the more shelf space the game gets day one.
So encouraging people, who are going to get the game, to pre order boosts the visibility for shops to woo people not in the know

I don't know what you're seeing, but graphically the game is a huge leap forward.
Even since I left HB at Christmas the graphics have improved massively. Again you're focused on bunker edges which mean very little to the vast majority. I know the team want everything to be perfect but you have to go with bang for your buck.
To rewrite the system, which could take up to 30% of development time, which many won't notice and would actually see review scores go down due to lack of other new features, just isn't worth it. When developing a game you have limited time and budget and have to spend that wisely. If you do everything you want you'll end up not releasing anything and going bust.
