Sargallath Abraxium Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 ...so which other poor saps that promised theysselves that theys'd ne'er touch anything e'en remotely smellin' o' BIOweenia bit the bullet an' pre-ordered the LE???... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!... 1 A long, long time ago, but I can still remember, How the Trolling used to make me smile. And I knew if I had my chance, I could egg on a few Trolls to "dance", And maybe we'd be happy for a while. But then Krackhead left and so did Klown; Volo and Turnip were banned, Mystake got run out o' town. Bad news on the Front Page, BIOweenia said goodbye in a heated rage. I can't remember if I cried When I heard that TORN was recently fried, But sadness touched me deep inside, The day...Black Isle died. For tarna, Visc, an' the rest o' the ol' Islanders that fell along the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanschu Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Well, to be fair, the "Bioweenian stench" can't be THAT bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowtrain Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 I don't think pre-ordering software is generally a real smart thing to do. What you are told you are getting and what you actually get are often 2 completely different things. But if you don't mind waiting for the patches and are OK with missing features and insipid AI, then be my guest. Nothing personal there, Sargy. Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.

Slowtrain Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 [a bit o' faith in what be left o' the once-mighty Black Isle Studios<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Good jaysus! Faith, lad? You always had a good heart, didn't you. Ah well, its probably a decent bet in this case. Still I think the world of the the software consumer would be a brigher, happier place if we made game companies prove they had a mostly bugfree and feature-intact product before we gave them our money.

Judge Hades Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 I am really on the fence. Part of me wants to get the LE the day it comes out so I will need to pre-order it to reserve my copy and another part me is saying to wait 3 to 6 months after release.

Llyranor Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 I'm buying this game on day 1 anyway, so it doesn't matter if I preorder or not. The collector's edition is pretty meh.

Wait 3-6 days to make sure, the game is in mostly playable shape and that intial feedback is positive, at which time you camn make an informed consumer decision and purchase the game with confidence and joy!

Most other countries have a nice big list of goodies. http://www.nwn2wiki.org/Limited_edition The We now bring you live footage from the World Championship Staring Final.

Judge Hades Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Yeah but 10 pounds in British currency is like $20 to $25 in USD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanschu Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Which is probably why Jumjalum feels okay with it, given that he's getting a whole other game, as well as its expansions, in addition to other goodies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oerwinde Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 is there any benefit to preordering? Because I find most games I want tend to be in stock when I go to pick it up the day it comes out anyway. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
