    Cancel pre order hell no cant wait. It is getting reasonable ratings ranging from 8 to 6 some of the coolest games in my opinion are the hidden gems thrown away by the gaming press.

    It's not safe to pre-order games. The last game I pre-ordered was Diablo III. It's a shame to see Thief fail though.

    Terribly disappointing. Had very high hopes for this game

    Yeah, I pre-ordered it about a month ago, but canceled it the next day when I came to my senses. I'm still curious about it, but I think now I'll rather wait for a GOTY edition or a very deep discount.

    I don't really see this as a failure. There are a couple of good reviews out there as well. I'm much more inclined to be interested in a game with such varying review scores. I'm also rather interested to see what I will think of this game, not being a fan of the franchise but having faith in the developer. If I had the money I would buy it on Friday, but I am getting Castlevania LoS 2 instead.

    I still don't get why people pre-order stuff, but whatever. Anyway, there are some decent reviews of the game, so it's really a personal taste thing.

    "Why pre-order when you know it will be in the next Steam sale? With your backlog it's not like you don't have anything to play in the meantime" - this is my gaming conscience, it works for pre-orders (not so much for bundles)
