To be fair, Hello Games did reclaim their honour some time ago already. NMS is amazing and they keep releasing new, meaningful updates for free. Their community loves them.
Still a great example on why not to preorder, the game needed years of more work to be in an acceptable state. Why waste your time and money when you could just hold off until the game is actually finished, or at least until you can confirm it's actually worth the investment based on its quality to you.
Yeah idk why people would pay for a digital product before its release, it's not like it will suddenly be unavailable after release, and they'll have spent money on something they can't own and enjoy yet
