I love this, and I knew I was going to buy this game since the day they first announced it.

But I'm a mess right now.

Because look, I mostly play games on PC, and my plan was buying this game on Steam, and now they announce that beautiful Treasure Box like the one released on Japan, but it's only for PS4, but I do not own a PS4, I have no interest on purchasing one either, or interest on any other PS4 games at all at the moment, but I really really really want that Treasure Box, so I'm somehow maybe considering that I maybe just maybe would just buy a console for the sake of playing this game...

So thats like 400€ on top of the 130€ that the Treasure Box costs, and probably would end up playing only that game on that console. I mean I like Attack on Titan but do I "500€+" like it? I am not sure.

But then it gets better, because of course they do this shitty thing with preorders which apparently is the norm now:

Quote:
Two different downloadable bonus costumes available to those who pre-order the standard version of A.O.T. Wings of Freedom from select retailers. Specifically, those who purchase from Game will receive the Cleaner’s Weapon and Costume for Eren and Levi, allowing them to show off Levi’s love for cleaning. Pre-ordering from Amazon and Independent Retailers through Centresoft provides players with the Mikasa Festival Costume. Alternatively, those who purchase through the PlayStation Store will receive a selection of Character Avatars featuring fan-favourites Eren, Levi and Mikasa!


Well excuse me what if I want Eren and Levi cleaning but I also want Mikasa but I also want the avatars WHY DO YOU MAKE MY LIFE SO COMPLICATED. Do I have to buy 3 copies of the game if I want to collect every bonus? And it says on their facebook this would be only for the standard version. These preorder bonus are not for the Treasure Box so you get nothing with that one. (Edit: Found TB with Mikasa Costume but not Eren & Levi, since it's through Game and apparently they only have standard edition for preorder).

I mean, please KOEI, I really really want to give you my money, but you are not making it easy for me.

Ah! Thank you for making my day. Smile

Believe me I'm no fan of the dub by any means but I'd actually prefer it for the games because unlike a close-up screen where I can quickly scan the subs, video games require my full attention, so I'd probably resort to just turning them off completely or maybe just limit them to side missions.

I don't know but it's making me reconsider buying the game. If EU is good enough for an LE, so is the US. Not to mention the US isn't getting Armin's costume.

Well the PS4 is region free, you could just import the Treasure Box edition
