Did you preorder D2:Resurrected? [Poll]

Since I didn't find such a poll, I decided to create one
Please share your opinion too!

The last option is added for the lulz but if someone picks it, it would be really interesting of they shared their reasons.

Hahah I can agree with the WC3 votes, but I think this will be different :3.

Never has my heart ben more broken when I found out there was a WC3 REMAKE when it launched and got destroyed by the community. That and they own all the user created content....hmmm wonder why (looking at you DOTA/LoL).

You actually get Beta access IF you Pre-Order. Just throwing it out there. I don't know if they're gonna do the Wave Invites thingy this time around. I hope they do.

I was going to buy it the last second because f*ck preordering but since they announced that preordering will grant beta access and I was always going to buy it, I felt forced to.

Ensuring a beta-access was enough reason for me to grab my credit card and preorder the game ^^

Maybe an option for buying, but on or a bit after release instead of sale?
Since I have a Principle of not pre-ordering, but pretty sure I will buy it on release or shortly thereafter

Absolutely, I think the game looks so beautiful and I can’t imagine it’s going to be anything like Wc3 Reforged.

Yes preordered 2 copies, one for PC and one for Xbox. Looking forward to beta in August.

I don't see the option for 'I don't pre-order games'. And that's really what it comes down to, I don't pre-order games. It made more sense back when we had to have physical copies, because this gave the retailers a signal for how much inventory they were going to need to order for launch day. It gave a signal for the game company for how many copies they would need to print. It was kind of helpful back then. But now, everything is online, I do not pre-order. I'm not waiting for a sale, I'll probably buy it on launch day and go in immediately.

Yes! I pre-ordered D2:Resurrected!

As soon as I saw Pre-Order available I was Sold on it haha! To many good memories from my past with this Game and piece of artwork to pass up such an opportunity to

Revive that nostalgic feeling!
I preordered to support VV and Blizzard in their endeavor to recreate that feeling. Not only for myself however, all else who are hopeful for it's success as well!

Oh yes. Especially after that trailer showing how it was SUPPOSED to look. On top of that they took away ypur W3 Classic and forced everyone to download the new merged version.

The thing with community content is also beyond ridiculous. That was the point I definitely ceased to be a Blizzard fan. The company is dead, it's a

Zombie animated by Activision evil. And I really, really hope that corpo greed won't eff up Diablo IV.

D2R looks awesome but I don't trust them one bit and that's why my vote was for the option "after release"

You can also get access if you registered (unless they changed something I may not be up to date ) - I registered and foc didn't get any invite, as expected

I didn’t pre-order, I would rather wait for the full release, maybe if there were some additional benefits besides beta, I would consider it. On the other note, just like @Beardozer I don’t pre-order games, at least not anymore. I was planning to buy Cyberpunk 2077 and it was absolute disaster and I’m glad I waited it out.

I did pre-order it, but i did because the alpha game play i say ppl playing looked realy good and smooth. so that made me feel better about pre-ordering it. Plus the beta test i get to be in on was a bonus.

although it does look fancy with the new face-lift i think i will have to wait with buying this game for pc until i get a better pc. and with the prices on computers at the moment i don't think it will be very soon. maybe i'l just end up buying a console. but that feels weird. i'm not really into console games and i'm wondering will the controller even feel satisfying for d2. it does seem kinda chill though to just bring the game with you on a Nintendo Switch.

Same!

I agree with the other guys that I dont really pre order stuff although after seeing what you said and my own nostalgia I caved. Soecially when they said its the original game with D2R being an overlay.

Yup I per-ordered when it first came available.

I pre-ordered a few hours after Blizzcon

What about you?

I pre-ordered a few days after Blizzcon when I learned of the announcement!

I'm not worried after WC3, this one is being done by VV which makes great remasters ;p

Didn't pre-order though, I don't support the practice.
