After hours of “maybe this is just a dud planet” I finally accepted that 90% of what they advertised was a massive and very deliberate lie. They’ve come a long way to make it right since then, but that doesn’t excuse their initial deception. Lesson learned: do not pre-order, ever. Wait for at least a month or so post-release and make a purchasing decision based on reviews.
