Why should one person get two exclusive items because they paid $90 for the game six months before another person?
Why shouldn't they?
Because cut content is stupid, if the content is there at release it should be available to everybody.
Personally I think the only pre-order bonuses should be a discount or getting the soundtrack for free, and this is coming from someone who pre-orders games they want including this one.

CDPR can do as they choose, but no preorder bonus means no preorder. Why would anyone let cdpr hold their money rather than they hold there money if there is no incentive?Originally posted by Draconifors:The part that wouldn't be fair is the existence of multiple versions, some "better" than others. Which I thought was clear enough based on the context.Originally posted by dulany67:Of course, someone who pays more (or preorders) might rightly believe that it's fair they get more.
"Fair" generally depends on your perspective.
Preorder bonuses are in the same category because it's the exact same game whether you preorder or not; it should not give anything more than (post-)release purchases.
Imo incentivizing preordering with exclusive stuff is rightfully frowned upon by many, including CDPR themselves. The only exception was the discount in their store only for GOG preorders, but that was essentially a way to promote their merch and gave no free stuff.

I thought like there would be digital deluxe with extra skins, outfits, gadgets and bonus vehicles etc and pre-order bonuses. Like maybe an exclusive weapon given to people who buy on steam, or a vehicle. Or some sort of exclusive outfits ingame for preorder people.

Having a million different versions would be pointless, and confusing because of all the differences.

excuse me, are you asking for CDP to become the likes of ubisoft creating so many versions of a game with worthless trinkets, passes, and "in game bonuses" that people needed a wiki, a god damn WIKI to tell the differences about each version?
other than, idk, a collectors edition that comes with a physical jacket, some memorable weapon, accessory, articular or doll is fine, other than that, there should be only 1 version always.

This way, everyone gets the same game, at the same price, at the same time with the same items.
And then they give out a sh*t ton of free DLC after it launches.

Cdpr dont do any scumbag moves like paywalls, lootboxes, microtransactions, preorder paywalls, edition paywalls, etc. You buy the game, you get all the content plus free small dlcs and updates. Besides. Physical copy of cp2077 has so many smol goodies it is like a upgraded edition almost. Seeing how GOG version has no drm and you get a physical copy with all that ♥♥♥♥ in it I will be getting it on GOG. Valve doesn't take a cut and I can just add launcher as a nonsteam program. I wonder if that gog galaxy thing is up and running and worth checking I can link the two maybe via it.

If you wanna get technical, there’s also a DRM-free version on GoG. As far as multiple versions with special content and whatnot, Drac basically hit the nail on the head: CDPR doesn’t do that.
