Dragon Quest series creator Yuji Horii talks about the challenge of making silent protagonists as game graphics grow increasingly realistic.

I specifically noted that I did not think they did preorders. Secondly, you could also not buy it when it first comes out, which is what I was getting at. If you know they are going to do this, either wait to buy the “full version” or buy it later on sale or not at all. Basically, buying it when it comes out is still telling the company that, even for an incomplete product, you’re still willing to shell out full price for it.

They don’t always do definitive editions, so should I just wait forever and never get it? Also, waiting and getting the definitive edition still tells them it sells. They don’t see why, they just see it selling. And if everyone just waits for the definitive edition, not buying the OG, they just view that as people not being interested in the game at all, so they quit making anything.

Edit: And I specifically mentioned pre-ordering because your thought process is the same as when it comes to pre-orders: if you don’t pre-order they’ll stop releasing unfinished garbage. That does not work here.

This is not a binary. “If they do not release a definitive edition, I can never buy it” is not a true statement. Show the company that you’re not going to get it right away and convince others to do the same.

I have never seen this happen with a popular IP. People complaining on social media would also probably be a decent enough way for someone at the company to know as around release, companies will definitely be checking.
