Exactly. It's not a free preorder bonus or upgrade that people will miss out on if they don't preorder now. This is simply a cash grab by EA and a way to charge $10 above MSRP for the game for some crappy digital goods that are probably already on the game disc.
Those same people will be the ones complaining when it sells out and they can't find a copy. Happens with pretty much every collector's edition thread.
They never put one out for DAII, so they may not with this.
How far does this joke go back?
Dragon Age 2, Mass Effect 2, and Mass Effect 3 have NEVER had Complete Editions.
Actually, it's not the collector's edition. According to their Twitter, that will be announced in the near future. This is literally just a version of the standard game with a few pieces of non-exclusive DLC that they are selling for $10 above MSRP. So no, nobody will be complaining about not being able to find a copy as it won't sell out and if it does, the DLC will be available for sale anyway.
Real reason:
I know, and like someone else said, they'll be whining when it's sold out and they can't get it anywhere.
Well to be fair we're on the Video game deal board so.... Personally I like only seeing deals on this board and unless somethings hard to find continuously out of stock i dont think an msrp finding is a deal. Also the deluxe version is most likely to end up with a digital version as well.
Tell that to the folks crying about resellers ruining their shot at the Bravely Default or Tales of Symphonia CEs. There was threads just like this for those when they were announced.
I can understand wanting to only see deals on this board but people don't need to be so douchey about it. They act like it ruins the whole board and their life at that.
Exactly. This should be included with the first print run of the game, but EA decides to charge $10 extra for it.
I was going to come in here and be snarky and say "Oh it's probably just horse armor"...
i addressed that though I said for rare ce's its a different story. Bravely default tales of symphona ni nu kuni collectors editions were very rare. I doubt the deluxe version for da3 will be rare. The series is almost as mainstream as mass effect.
Of course, the people that insist that everything should qualify as a deal and don't understand why people that don't visit here multiple times a day might be upset when the board gets cluttered and they can't find actual deals aren't douchey, right? Personally, I find it annoying when threads like this pop up because I click thinking something is actually below MSRP or some truly limited item. It would be nice if for once the anything goes people would admit this isn't a deal and self-police their own threads and relocate them to an appropriate place other than the deals section.
The crystal ball is every game they've ever released. Cisquisition will be no exception.
