What I was originally sold on made sense: physical games sometimes have shortages and if you want to avoid that you can pay up front to reserve a copy. I pre ordered Skyrim and it shipped to me almost a week after all my friends got theirs who didn’t preorder. The physical copy of Skyrim was meaningless since it was tied to steam anyway. That was my first and last experience with preordering
I usually pre order a day before IF there have been reviews and such. At that point I still have plenty of time for a steam refund and the reviews have given me some level of confidence.
“I like to preorder my groceries. I know they’re going to have what I want, they always do, but I just give them a few hundred in advance to make sure they’ll still have some when I get there.”
Tesco probably will but plenty of Christmas club companies have gone bust and left people without their order. Even companies as big as Tesco can get in a mess, it’s not like they hold the stock for you in advance.
Hey! I created it in Unity. It’s actually a game I been working on for over a year now which is releasing in September (Finally), but was playing around and re-created the shining in it for fun (since I LOVE the movie) haha
I haven’t seen the shining, so this probably isn’t my bag, but I’m commenting to bump you up in the ranking for top posts of x period of time. Whatever that may be.
I hope it does well for you man! I hope the launch is spectacular; whatever you are hoping for and then some ^_^
I’ve got family members that have loyally progressed through this game over the course of years and they absolutely love it still. Great music throughout.
After playing it I went through the soundtrack and added a few songs to my “Background Music” playlist I use when trying to focus. It has a ton of great tracks.
I’m playing since the 2.0 days, I almost grew up with this game and its characters. Top tier game, be it as an MMO or a single player game, it is worth it.
I was dating a girl that sold me on 1.0, and I was going to play it with her. We broke up, and 1.0 released, and I just said fuck it. It wasn’t until Heavensward that I came back. It kills me that in that time I lost my original key, so I don’t even have my swanky 1.0 survivor rewards.
I’m so glad I came back, though. It’s been my only MMO since then, and it just gets better with every new release.
I still have my 1.0 disc, given how useful it is now, it horrifies my friends when they find out I’m using it as a coaster. I stopped playing before I could get the rewards too, so seeing people with the tattoos always makes me sigh.
My friends and I started with the 2.0 beta, and it’s wild to me that I’ve now played one game in three decades of my life (started when I was 29 and we are now into year 11).
Gonna be in a retirement home grinding to level 250 or whatever.
