Dont ask me why but this is the options we were told are possible.
If you want to believe we are the bad guys go ahead do it. But I can tell you this is simply not true. Why would we even care to annouce it before the actual release if we are just mean and never had any good intentions.

I am again very sorry for how this appears and I totally understand your anger. So how about this - you send me a proof that you got DS2 and at least the Season pass or the DLCs that are included in the season pass (best is this page: https://store.steampowered.com/account/licenses/) and I will get you a key to get DS2DE. Just send it to ****** [at] nordicgames.at
Edit: STOP sending mails now please. This was only a limited offer and we are working out something.

Making Darksiders II Deathinitive Edition at all was a natural choice as we could bring it to the current generation of consoles and improve the game in a lot of areas.
You expect us to BELIEVE it's not possible? We know full on all you have to do is request from steam who paid for what content. They tell you and from there you can take the actions YOU desire to take.

Don't try to make this out like it's steam or valve or anyone else's fault. It's CLEARLY yours.

This is nothing more then a cash grab to loyal customers who supported Darksiders 1 and 2 from release. I promise you this Nordic, if this is how you conduct business I will never ever purchase a game you publish or release.

Then you said people could email you with proof of purchase and request a key, which anyone could have told you was a bad way to go about it given just how many people are affected.

Then you said stop emailing that you are looking for another way to get the Definitive Edition to owners of the original.

So what progress have you made on doing that so far? Or was that a lie just to get people to stop blowing up your inbox?

Some real communication on what if anything you are doing to rectify this situation is needed, not these 'It is as I said' posts.

EVGA cards are fine.  However, unless something has changed recently they do seem to charge around $30ish more than their competitors.  They used to have a better warranty/customer service but that hasn't been the case for several years now.  No reason to buy an EVGA if you can find a cheaper Gigaybte, MSI, or Asus (of the same model).

 
EVGA is a generally the best video card company.  However, the 970 EVGA were known for coil whine.  The reviews seem to say that MSI has the best 970s.

Humble can suck a dik

Talisman: Digital Edition

V7JEK-ZABHP-NNBWK

Talisman: Digital Edition Frostmarch Expansion
D88ER-58TT0-L7K5I

Talisman: Prologue
HZC72-ZJ7L9-LQGBK

 
Most of the high end EVGA cards carry a lifetime warranty.
Define high end? Are we talking about Titans? I'm pretty sure most including the x70 and x80 series come with a standard 2-3 year warranty you'd find with their competitors.

EVGA used to offer lifetime warranties. Now you have to pay for it. But a lifetime warranty is fairly irrelevant. Most of us here replace cards every 3-4 years if not sooner.

MOST 1st Gen of the 970GTX have coil whine problem. except this one Gigabyte low profile 970GTX I bought last Xmas. Whispering quiet, improved air flow and very good price (at that time)

surely they must have fixed it by now

 
Well, with black Friday quickly approaching and my current video card being old enough to start kindergarten now I'm hoping to replace it this time... Looking for ideas, most I could spend is $350 but likely allot less.

(Current card is a Radeon 5850.) No G-Sync or anything like that in my monitor.

Edit: My video card is the biggest bottleneck on my pc.
Almost as insightful as my response to your post.

Didn't get a Van Herpsing key :(

Also got something from Nuuvem about Fallout in the mail a little while ago:

"13.7 bilhões de anos desde o Big Bang... e menos de 100 horas para o FALLOUT 4"

I don't speak gardener, but I assume it says "13.7 bill hoes do anus-deep Big Bang...and men with 100 whores play on Fallout 4." Good news for everyone who kept their pre-order.
Way funnier than the actual translation.
13.7 years since the lactose intolerant alien had a sphincter eruption aka the big bang. Less than 5 days till we know how bug filled Bethesda's latest cash grab is.
 
You can pre-order the Steam Controller from Amazon now?

Not completely surprising I suppose. I think I might be the last person to realize this due to my recent thread inactivity. You'll still get the pre-order bonus games, Rocket League and Portal 2. Free shipping and potentially no tax makes this slightly better than buying from the Steam store.
Good shout on this. Have been in the market for a new controller despite still liking my trusty 360 controller. Had a bit of Amazon credit to burn so this was a good pick up for me. I'd not have done it without this post, so cheers.

Also if you're looking to save a little money, there's this site called "Gyft" which basically just sells online gift cards. https://gyft.com/ if you sign up now you get a $5 off code if you spend $15 or more, so easy free $5. I needed $15 to finish my Amazon order, so I joined and used the coupon to get a $15 GC for $10. May come in handy for someone, so there. The code is only viable for 3 days, so be sure to wait to join only when you're ready to buy.

Welcome! I didn't know if anyone had mentioned it. I have some spare Amazon credit so I'm tempted in picking this up as well. I'm pretty curious how it handles a variety of KB/M games. I figure I could buy it, test it out and possibly return it to Amazon if I really didn't like it for credit.

 
Well now I know why I didn't get a reply from Nordic.

Luckily, my email and everyone else's will continue to get sent over and over for two more days. ;)

Where the fuck is at?

I didn't get a didn't go through reply until just now which I'd think should have happened immediately if the address didn't work at all.

Well whatever I'll just keep bitching at him with everyone else until he gets his shit together. It's not like I saw a single person report getting a key from him via email anyway.

I haven't received a reply yet and I'm not expecting one. I didn't get one of those "mail delivery subsystem" emails though.

Nordic Games is in Austria, and their internet domains end in .at

Well I did it and pre-ordered Battlefront. Pretty much know what Im getting myself into. The int'l Force Awakens trailer did me in. Geeked out. I knew I would, but it took me a while. Just went ahead and GMGd it and killed off the credit from the summer thing.

OP is already "Team AMD" so I figured drivers havent been an issue for him.
Well, as I said my card is old enough to go to school so I'm shocked when I get driver updates at all.

Edit: I do feel more incline to go with nVIDIA this time... I've heard of allot of driver issues with AMD in new games over the past few years.

Nordic rep says basically 'Ain't Nobody Got Time For That' for the Neocore solution.

I have answered that before and I can just repeat:
The intention was that those who owned the substantial content already meaning Darksiders 2 and the story DLCs get the Deathinitive Edition for free and folks who at least own Darksiders 2 get an 80% discount. We approached Steam with that and they said this isnt possible we could only tie it to the franchise pack.

What Neocore did is a system that they created on their own to verify ownership. Very well done but we didnt have the time to do that as we only found out some weeks before release that Steam cant do it as we counted on them.

So there was no bad intention at all!
Motoki Just Now said:
Okay so then explain to Valve and press them for another solution. Or just give it to everyone who owns the base of the original game and call it good. That DLC is so old anyway, if it's easier to do that way and go to bat for your customers instead of making them angry.

If all else fails then you can make a 99% discount instead of 80% for the existing customers.

Come on, do you really think it's okay for some people to get the new version for free even though others of us who own the same package don't get that? Of course it's not fair. You need to find a better solution!

You dont give a shit about our answers at all anyways and you just want to believe it was intentional.

If we dont care why would we even do a loyalty program at all? Come on guys, put the rage back and think about it. Its not ideal right now but really we are not the ones to blame here. All these easy solutions and liar comments dont really help. After all this whole package set up is a bit more complicated than naive fallacy about adding apps to packages - here the system would need to cross check ownership and again we werent given the possibility to do that.

We are working on the support requests and have the best intentions to make this good.
Motoki said:
What does this mean exactly? You told people to stop sending emails and you are "working something out". So what are you working out and how are you working on the support requests? And if people aren't supposed to send emails and just wait then what are we waiting for?

If you can communicate clearly with us then maybe that will help with some of the animosity. All I am hearing is what you can't do and I'm not hearing a lot about what you can do or what you are trying to do.

you guys want the Deathitive edition to actually play or just farming for card?
What does it matter? They gave it to some people who own it but not others and we own the same game and DLC like those who got it. It's not about play or not play but fairness and treating all their customers the same.

And quite frankly it's none of your business what I do or don't do with my games.

Then fucking do it. It's not like anyone around here gives a shit that the giveaway spam annoys me and some others when you do that shit all the time anyway so I'm not giving a shit about annoying you right now because we need to keep making noise with this stubborn asshole.

Personally I'd just like to play through the game again with the new version. I'm irritated by how this is being handled by Nordic, especially after how well the Red Faction update was handled, but a lot of the negativity is just a bit overboard. The dev posted that they intend to make good on this, and I hope they do, and I hope everyone can be a bit more patient until we know for sure.

Which would be fine if he communicated more clearly, but he said that once two days ago to get everyone to stop flooding his email box and since then he's only continued to make excuses and hasn't discussed what if anything he is trying to do to work something out.

For a PR person, he really sucks at PR.
