Yes, it was fun with friends. It would could get frustrating solo though. I know earlier in the year there were quite a few OP class builds that made challenging the harder world tiers fun. Hopefully those haven't been nerfed to hell and back.
Those that are hung up on shipping simply need to pair what they want with a game that would be a pre-order and not ship for a while. Once you receive the game you want, cancel the pre-order if it's not something you were genuinely interested in.
Just a PSA for backloggers that just plan on tossing these in a stack or flipping them, make sure to check and see if your games start up. I've ended up with 3 dud Wii U games that won't launch. Other games (including my 4th in the deal) will work fine. I'll need to exchange or return these.
Last time I was this early for Black Friday I was in line at KB toys for a buy 1 get 1 special on games. Went in expecting to get Mass Effect 1, AC1, Orange Box, and anything else that was awesome in 2007. Discovered they only had PSP shovelware even available to buy once the store opened. :/
In trying to renew my own sub, and buy a friend a sub, I got reupped to 2023. I can only pray they honor it til then. Maybe I'll squeak in FF7 Remake by then...
Just wanted to add a belated thanks to this thread. Was able to flip my launch model and GS last Sunday, the final day of their deal and get a Pro on the cheap from the target in the same parking lot!
just get the vanilla. The dlc is pretty bad and short. The main game is a solid Souls clone though.
