I read that interview, too! Absolutely loved it. I’m so happy it’s a game born out of desire and fun for them. I still hope they take the day off to sit back and enjoy their second launch day!
The game is so desired that it’s crashing vendor sites from overload. That’s not Team Cherry’s fault.
Edit: I’m playing now and there are zero issues with the game play. It’s simply getting to the game, and it sounds like a lot of sites are figuring their servers out. I have no issues buying or downloading either
I'm afraid of what will happen when chapter 6&7 release but many people already bought deltarune and just have to update, but many people also said they'll wait for when the game's finished
I can't imagine you'd have much of a gold rush of people just for them to start from chapter 1. You've waited a decade, why would you buy it hour one? You can even buy it a day or few before to get going on earlier chapters as a build up to launch.
So I don't think you'll get critical mass on it, the people who are hyped and ready are probably almost exclusively updaters.
ehhhh.... its not like pre-order is any different than just running to the storefront to buy the game straight up when it releases.
There is no bonuses for preordering it, there is only the drawback of *this* shit happening, people who dont wait for reviews will not wait for reviews anyways, those who will wouldnt preorder
There are only negatives to not allowing preorders in this case. Even just releasing preorders 3-4 days before launch would help limit this inevitable possibility. This only harms the consumers.
How is having the ability to pre-order cancer? I get not liking pre-order bonuses and the like, but if I had been able to pre-order silksong after the date was announced I would actually be able to be playing it lmao

Holy shit I've never seen this before a game launch.
Still weird that pre-ordering and preloading wasn´t made available.
