You can preorder a boxed version for €33 in Poland (with a bandana as a pre-order bonus - lol). I have not preordered a game (ignoring Kickstarter) since Diablo 3, but this one is strangely tempting.

Let the light of ELEX into your heart, pre-order it now.

So if you can kill anyone, does it mean you can destroy all factions and become king of Magalan ?

Even the paper is illustrious and polished, signs of a great game. You can use the art book to tell stories to your wife's kids. The ample amount of disks makes them useful as Frisbees for your pet. The map can be glued on your second monitor so you know where you are while you play. I rate this collector's edition 10 out of Elex

10% off preorders is also increasingly a market standard, you moron

No, not really. You don't see pre-order discounts on games that will be hits (regardless of how the Codex feels about them). Look at WWE, any new Bethesda game, Destiny 2, etc.

Also, it is clear that many of you don't understand how pricing/publishing works. Digital storefronts are usually the ones that decide if a game is going to be discounted, not the publisher -- within boundaries set by the publisher/distributor during the contract phase. In other words, the distributor can say "We reserve the right to offer the game XYZ discount for n days, or until blah blah blah." This is totally normal.

If you go to Steam and the PS store, the game is 10% off. If you visit the XBox store, it is full price. That, right there, tells you that the publisher is not controlling the discount.

Rather, what has likely happened is that PS and Steam have looked at the game and the early reviews (in fact, have no doubt already played it themselves), and have said "Well, this looks like it is going to be shit, let's get what we can out of the gate!"

The Nordic guys are cool, I hope for their sake this game is successful. But, I also hope several Codex posters are terribly disappointed and have to eat shit. I am torn on this one.

careful guys we've got a badass who knows his xbox and ps store here

I love being lectured on how the business side of this industry works by neckbearded Eurotrash and angry shitposters.

careful guys we've got an actual badass over here
You mean colonial. It is amusing how the biggest trash from Europa went to the new lands,and a now they call us "eurotrash". Judging by the Ozzies that i have met, american colonists are beneath criminals.

I agree, it is kind of a amazing how a bunch of cast-offs and indentured servants were able to build a superpower, meanwhile Bulgaria has one of the lowest per-capita incomes in the whole fucking EU. I'm sure there's no jealousy there, nosiree. Anyway, you don't have to respond, I know you are probably on an hourly rate at your local internet cafe.
