You pledged for an additional box, which does not include an additional digital key. You could open the second box and use the key inside of it, or go add on a digital key and use that.

Even the physical version is just a steam key with the game files less the day one patch, and it isn't available in North America. You could get a copy from GoG and burn your own disk(s) though.

Being in North america, you can get any of the digital editions listed on steam or gog, and the only difference between the them is the digital extras they come with. There is no physical edition for NA yet, but you can get a physical strategy guide here.

They are exactly They are exactly the same, any additional benefits you pledged for above the Hero edition will be available on the site. See http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/71253-tiers-to-skus/

Yes. If you paid the going rate and preordered the game, you get it.

I would be shocked if a digital manual isn't included in all of the tiers.

Only posted each picture once this time? What is this empire coming to?!

I think that since everyone has a digital copy anyway, there is no rush to get the backer copy of the game to us by release. I'd also rather the money be spent on almost anything other than shipping.

Are add-ons supposed to still be available? Or is that in the process of getting shut down?

I think I had this same error, but I stumbled into a (potential) solution. I was just leaving the Dracogen Inn and this happened, but although waiting indefinitely didn't help, pressing pause (or clicking on the time icon blind) immediately brought the game out of the frozen state. A save is attached, all you need to do is walk out the door and the glitch will occur. The problem (and solution) is replicate-able.

YES! This post just made my day.

A wild ALOTH appeared! Panda used Poké Ball!

They would not answer this far from release, since they don't know quite what they have on their hands. That said, I would be surprised if they sold a boxed game in a country they aren't localizing the game for.

Pretty much all production outsourcing nowadays is either Lawful Evil or Lawful Expensive. Or Chaotic Evil, but falsely represented as Lawful Neutral. You don't actually have to have a safe factory, sane hours, or a wage that lets the employee afford to eat, you just have to intimidate them into tricking the inspectors into believing that you do these things.
