And it would be just as accurate as your current argument. People are made an offer of getting a certain product+service bundle. They then don't get that. It is not unreasonable for them to complain about this.
Hey person, I'm just as peeved as everyone else about not being able to log in since 10 am CT. Your argument doesn't apply to my argument, because it requires one to establish an assumption based on a theoretical situation. My argument is a counter argument, stating that Early Access is given to people who pre-ordered the game, and not given to people for paying EXTRA money aside from the purchase of the game. I am correct in this argument. I have not defended SquareEnix for anything at all, all I'm trying to help people understand is that they aren't out any EXTRA money. Even if you only pre-ordered because of the offer to Early Access doesn't mean you paid MORE money than Joe Blow is gonna pay tomorrow at the store.
