Comment on God of War Laufey's $150 Collector Box Includes a Light-Up Faye Statue but no game
emb@lemmy.world 4 days agoEven if there’s not a PC version, it works out better to let buyers choose disc or digital for themselves (assuming this game gets a physical release, which I don’t know if it will).
I don’t think splitting the trinkets from the game is so bad, unless this merch box is priced like there’s a game in it. I mean broadly, more modular options are good.

Except that steelbooks are normally included with collector’s editions and most of them included the disc as well. Cost is also not lower than usual, son elighten me, what’s the upside here?

The GoW Ragnarok collector’s edition was apparently 200 w/ the digital game, this box is 150 without a game. Adjusting for the fact that the world sucks and everything costs more, seems about right to say they’re not charging for the missing game? (Tho I’d still say both are overpriced.)
I wouldn’t want a digital copy of a game, but I know many people would. That’s the upside, is that people can buy whichever version of the game they want separate from the extras.
Steelbook is a weird one to exclude, and I can understand the frustration if that’s something you want and they’re not making one.

The ragnarok version actually did not include the game. Only a steelbook for you to put the game in if you bought it separately. I think both are overpriced for what they are.
