Exactly, it’s in their best interest to review positively to keep relations with publishers, so they keep getting review keys, so they can capitalize on that early hype. That said, I got burnt by preordering cyberpunk, so I’ve stopped preordering since

I stopped pre-ordering after Fable III. I paid $60 bucks, beat it in like 4 hours, and it was marked down to $20 shortly after.
