Bought the Nova Edition. This is the game I've been waiting to be produced for a loooooooooong time!

[Majestic7]

So who is going to be the first to mod dworves into the game? Or great toads.

Well, one would have to be able to animate portraits, maybe not all that necessary at first.
I guess a still image would be possible.
And then a name list should be made.
Names however seem to be tied to phenotypes, so a new "Dwarvish" phenotype might be needed as well.
Emblems might not be too important, unless you want maces, pickaxes, beer kegs, and other dwarven-themed emblems.

I guess that's all that's needed really.

[Majestic7]

Needs temper tantrums resulting in the destruction of entire planets, though - and the occasional masterwork starship made of the skin and bones of the locals (with engravings of burning elephants).

[Culise]

I wonder if you actually need to import animated avvies, or if (like Civ 4) you can get away with static images in the place of dynamic leaderheads.  It'll look better with the latter, for certes, but the former could work as a stopgap as well. 

Also, Nova edition here as well.  I suppose, when all is said and done, I still consider Paradox worth the trust of a full-price buy, and the Nova edition, while not offering much above the standard, is the price I would have expected for the base game. 

[Greenbane]

It costs 699 rubles for me. Or roughly $10.5.

I wouldn't think of not buying something from Steam as long as it keeps up this sort of regional pricing here.

Yeah, Russia consistently has the highest discounts, but also the harshest region locks and then some. That is, Russian copies sometimes only have a Russian localization. Not to mention trade locks on Steam. Given the very significant economic benefit, obviously publishers will do their darnedest to keep it contained within the intended region.

Nova Squad! We are go!

BFEL purposely preordered standard edition. Because BFEL is cheap.

I think that although the current name lists are divided by phenotype, there's no reason it needs to be that way always.

I'm with you. I can't justify paying ten bucks for a spider and some pointless gimmick content. There's got to be a line somewhere.

[Shadowlord]

I haven't pre-ordered it. The line must be drawn here, this far and no farther.

Same. I would have if it was >$25 but not right now no. After all, I'm still fully confident this game won't be all that upon release or at least until the first few DLC.

I think your sign is backwards, because this game is >$25.

[Greenbane]

I do expect the usual massive convoy of post-release DLC, including graphics packs (species, logos, ship styles, etc.), music packs, ebook novels, expansions and the most questionable expansion "content packs". With a small amount of luck, the base game will be solid enough to encourage that kind of production.

Personally, I paid a bit more than necessary because I want to support Paradox and want them to keep making games and extra content.

Comrade, I stand with you!

[Egan_BW]

Us great stalwart warriors of not paying money for things.

[Aklyon]

While I probably would've preordered this, I bought BDO earlier in the month and thus should probably wait on buying another $30 game.
