As much as I wish this were true gamers have shown themselves to be literally incapable of not supporting ahitty business practices.

Go into any thread where they're complaining about how yet another game that everybody pre-ordered came out as an unfinished pile of shit. Try to tell them it's because they keep paying game companies before the product even exists and that removes the incentive for the company to finish the game and also its a digital pre-order which is by deffinition stupid.

You'll get dog piled and everybody will tell you it's their money, they can spend it however they want and how dare you try to tell them what to do and then go pre order another game.

AAA Gaming is dead, gamers killed it. Unfortunately they're still paying for corpses.
