The calculation people make is "this game might be good" and "I want the exclusives". They determine that the risk of it being bad is worth paying on the offchance it's good and they won't get the exclusives.
It's annoying but it absolutely works on much of the audience.
That's only fair when they buy the more expensive copie that has exclusives.
