Right, so I heard some news about the pricing of GW2. Maybe everyone knows this stuff already but I hadn't really thought about the price before ^^ I wanted to get the collectors edition of gw2 because well, I think they are cool. To get a collectors edition you need to be 2 things. A diehard nerdfan, and rich. Unfortunately, I am not as rich as I hoped. £130 for collectors edition makes me upset. So there goes that plan. You do get a char figurine though. I really wanted that. So much.
The Digital Deluxe version is around $80, where you just get a in game mini, but no figurine. /cry. You also don't get all the books, maps, art and soundtrack stuff. Which does sound pretty cool.
You get a fair bit of in game stuff in these 2 editions: a miniature char, elite skill and some one time unlocks. The fact that there is a skill that is only available to people who paid extra makes me a little dubious of things to come in the future, and possibly sounds like we will need to buy unlocks. I hope not, I don't like that business model.
The standard edition comes with the game. But will be around $60, so pretty standard for a free-to-play MMO.
So my dreams of a char figurine are ruined. Life is a cruel mistress. Here's hoping GW2 will make up for it
