Do people new to the hobby preorder games? I'm genuinely curious, since I don't know anyone new to it.

Excited teenagers definitely would. Honestly, I bet anyone that sees the marketing for a game they're excited for and hasnt been burned before in that way is a prime candidate for preordering.

I would have figured people new to the hobby would go to used game stores first, then new game sections of regular retail stores.. maybe swap those around.

I don’t even know that many long-term gamers who preorder..? They might pick it up on launch day but.. typically not preorder.
