Hakkesshu Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I'm a backer for the Royal Edition, but without even looking I punched in the first key on my product page only to find out the two copies you get are different editions, so now I'm out a key I was planning to give to a friend and stuck with the "lesser" edition myself. Am I out of luck? Do I need to contact Steam support? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The editions are not diffrent in game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aarionn Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Uff, I do not know whether you can do anything.... I remember as I was choosing my key that there was popup screen that ask if I am sure I want this edition because it will not be possible to change it later. But what Verdia said, you will still be able to get what you pledged for on backer portal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SquishyRolls Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 You are not alone, I just did the same and feel very silly. It is good to know that it is still available on the backer portal though. Just means my friend will have access to all the bonus stuff aswell I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aarionn Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Yes you will get access to everything through backer portal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthewfarmery Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) well I did redeem the right edition for myself, but wondering if I did the right thing? might have been better to have given my friend the royal edition and me the hero and download the extras from the portal, so I did the reverse and wish I had done the same thing now.

Well thinking about it that way certainly reduces the sting. It is nice to stupidly stumble into a better outcome somtimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vril Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I think you can always buy the upgrade to the Royal Edition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delicieuxz Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 The game isn't out yet. If you contact Steam support, they can probably move the game to your friend's account no prob. The only question is whether they'd respond to you before PoE releases or not, and whether you decide to start playing the game before they respond.

Hakkesshu Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 Ah, I didn't realize the extra stuff would be available outside of Steam, so yeah it pretty much doesn't matter, and in fact benefits my friend. Thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scathsealgaire Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I wasn't given a choice about the edition, only about the platform (steam or GOG). I kickstarted the "Digital Fun Pack" which should have all the rewards of the Royal pack, and when I redeemed it I got the Champion Edition. Why the hell would I or anyone want to down-grade my order after already confirming my pledge? i have lodged a ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All your stuff will be available on the backer portal, regardless of which edition you also get through Steam or GOG.
