I used to collect comics so I've got a decent understanding of what is collectible in that area but not with games. I have been looking at the ER Launch Edition, which comes with some other stuff (patches, posters etc). Now to me, this would seem like a decent collectible to keep sealed and stashed away - but as I said before I don't know enough about gaming? It is going to be a sought after game... it has 'icon' potential and gamers are desperate to play the game. It seems like a perfect thing to collect? Does anyone have any insight or comment?

This game 100% has potential to reach legendary status. It has already won multiple game of the year awards and it hasn't even come out yet.

However you never know. I played the beta and it was amazing, but its still entirely possible that the game releases glitchy and unfinished.
I don't think its a big risk to take the chance and buy the collector's stuff.

Still haven't been able to find either of the two CEs and the only Launch Edition available for a while now has been for Series X. PS5 sells out instantly.

Thanks, Dio! *clink
 
I am seriously considering taking a few vacation days around the 25th. My only reservation is server stability at launch. I don't want to burn up vacation while the servers are being crushed by everyone trying to log in.

What do ye say, Sherdoggers? Should I play server stability roulette?

I can't see them releasing an unfinished game but previous games have had their fair share of bugs.
This game is also open world, developed during covid and is being released for 3 playstation sku's, 4 xbox sku's and pc.

Yeah my thoughts exactly. I ,love Fromsoft, Im just trying to be realistic about the potential worst case scenarios. Pandemic, first open world game, etc...
Im optimistic though and think the game will have a successful release.
 
Poor Xbox. I almost thought about changing my preorder from PS5 to Xbox because I'm also getting Horizon Forbidden West and Gran Turismo 7 which are both exclusives but then read Elden Ring will support the dualsense...so nope!

I ordered a launch edition so will tuck it away unopened and forget about it.
 
Do not purchase ER for PC....especially if FromSoft doesnt get ahead of this. DS3 should probably only be played offline aswell.

Bandai has been notified but theres a month left until release. If they dont talk about it soon, buy it on the PS5 or Xbox.

From doesnt give a shit about their PC ports, so once it releases, its a long shot that they'll update.
 
BlueSentinels put out a patch for the RCE on DS3.



The thing is, this RCE exists on all Souls games, and even on the PS3 emulated version of DeS on the PC. Stay safe lads, Ill still look to get the PC version if its safe by release, otherwise its the PS5.
 
Jo was on point here – thanks, dude. I missed this thread so didn't know until right now the Community was already up to date as I'd posted yesterday elsewhere about it.

Dio, I'd go PS5/Series X personally to excise future concern because responding to the like server-side has never been a first-party strong suit. There's talk over this having outgrowth into Souls, Souls II, and potentially ER, which depends on what if any updates have been made on their game servers and to security practices. With the 5, you get the riches of the DualSense as well as Tempest 3D audio to immerse you fully so I'd ultimately recommend that.
 
Secured the Launch edition this morning after giving up on either of the two CEs proper; comes with prelaunch gesture and guide but too art collateral (cards, rune patch, poster, sticker). I'm happy with it. I originally wanted a unique cover edition for the physical media (like the CE artbook's white-golden lion graphic) but that was across the board not an option. I got a special-edition cover back when for Ghost of Tsushima and loved it enough to want the same here. No big. This is the day I got GoT:

I have this game pre-ordered but I do hope it isn't just Dark Souls IV. I'm in the minority but I think that Sekiro is the best game they've made so far. I loved the combat and verticality in that one. To those who played the beta, does this game in any way feel similar to Sekiro?
