    I hope this breakdown is of any help & let me know if I missed anything! Make sure to share your thoughts on S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: are you looking forward to this game?
    P.S. Apologies for the sultry voice but my vocal cords are under siege from a huge cold.

    Hard to be excited to preorder or to get the deluxe/ultimate editions when they're holding reviews under embargo until the last minute.

    • @SirStefanGaming

      You're absolutely right, luckily the preorder benefits don't have that much FOMO-character so it's really a matter of how much faith you have in the game up front. I believe that, given the content of the digital deluxe and ultimate editions, is really meant for the longtime fans of the stalker franchise. For the more generalist or even casual gamer, it will be less of a sentimental decision and they will want to see some "proof" of the game being worth a) for starters the price of the base game and b) going above the standard edition.

      ​@SirStefanGaming they've been updating it nonstop on my Xbox. Just did a 130 something gig update last night. Think that might have been the actual game, but the past week it's been updating a bunch. (Downloaded via gamepass)

      I pre ordered it on steam. If there are any problems I'll return it.

    On the specs, in my opinion, more seems to be gained depending on the size of the graphic card and maybe the CPU. What are your opinions, please?

      I'm sorry, I'm not entirely sure what you mean; gained by GPU and CPU as opposed to what exactly?

      GSC hasn't said anything about upgrades yet where you just pay the difference in price between versions. As is; you would pay full price for a different version.

    review embargo lifting 2 hours before release means i'm buying this in 6 months when multiplayer, bug/performance patch, dlc, mods are released.

    • @SirStefanGaming
      @SirStefanGaming  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yeah that's a tricky one but luckily for you there will be hundreds of reviews in 6 months time to watch/read. 🙂 My personal experience is that an embargo will last until a few days before launch, not just a few hours so that is out of the ordinary. However for me it doesn't automatically imply that means there an intent to "hide" something (because I see that being suggested in some content). Seems logical that GSC wants to preserve the gameplay experience and prevent spoilers. They're publishing themselves which gives them room to uphold a different embargo vs release time-window.

    €80 for the deluxe edition and €110 for the ultimate edition? I don't know if it's a thing of the Microsoft Store or my country (Spain) but for me they cost €97 and €133 respectively with the only similar price being the standard edition wich costs €60.49

    • @SirStefanGaming
      @SirStefanGaming  หลายเดือนก่อน

      That is so weird and a real bummer for you! I'm confused because the deluxe and ultimate editions are digital so it's not like you have to pay for shipping or anything. If you look the game up on the Steam website or in the app; what do the prices say there?

    • @Ananonymousguy-nk9oj
      @Ananonymousguy-nk9oj หลายเดือนก่อน

      I agree that's the core experience where you should have that sense of loneliness and I get why GSC chose not too have co-op, although I think being able to go through the experience with a friend might also be a lot of fun.

    349€ for the ultimate edition if you got the first, not re-reprinted version. Also shipping is free, but we need to pay 5€ because of age verification trough delivery😄

    • @SirStefanGaming
      @SirStefanGaming  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You need to pay to verify your age? That's wild, I haven't seen that before! I take it inflation made the prices go up over time. I tried to preorder October last year but couldn't...I guess stock for the first batch was already gone by then.

      @@SirStefanGaming Yeah. I pre-ordered the UE on Amazon Germany on 11/11/24😄 and if that order contains an object "USK 18" you need to accept the package in person and show your ID for the age. The CE and UE are available the last few days again. But only single ones. Maybe from cancellations🤔

    • @SirStefanGaming
      @SirStefanGaming  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Good for you that you got your preorder in on time! That's possible; one of the reasons could be that people have seen more information emerge (or got spooked by the lack of any recent, actual gameplay footage) and decided to cancel or downsize to a regular edition.

    • @SirStefanGaming

      It reminds me of the Star Wars Outlaws "Jabba's Gambit" bonus quest also being part of a more expensive game edition. It's usually of so little impact to the overall experience of the game itself that it's never really an incentive to spend more money.

      I know it's a big step up from €60! And to pre-order DLC before knowing you will like the base game to begin with; that's always risky. Best to wait on reviews for the story expansions in due time.
