I bought two galaxy versions (me and my long-time MP buddy) and two normal versions (wife I'd like to get hooked and good friend)...so where does that place me besides the nut house? :)

That makes you an awesome mate... I might try that, I reckon I know just the buddy actually, if I can lure him away from his Xbox and porn...

Purchased standard copy at 25% discount from !@#$%^&&*(). Have to make another purchase on June 6th so looking for max bang for the dollar. Looking forward to crushing the universe, err making new friends and exploiting, err just exploring the universe!!

I went mid-tier for the music and the space spiders (which I ink look really cool).

Look at this fat-cat with his fancy standard version pre-order. Some of us can't afford to get the game until it probably goes on sale several months from now. No bonus races for me. :(

Paradox has historically made the preorder bonus a DLC you can buy later. You can get it and the base game for X% off if you are waiting.

Can it be i am the only person here that only bought the standart edition. I feel completely surrounded by nova and galaxy owners.

I never buy "special" editions. I made an exception this one time and got the Nova edition, because the separate soundtrack is actually something with utility value for me (unlike the extra cosmetics, I'm indifferent to those). Is that worth an extra $10USD ? I don't know, but I also feel that if anyone deserved more (voluntarily-given) money for their games, it's Paradox. I mean, I spent $50USD on Civ:BE, and I "only" clocked 72 hours with it. I suspect I'll get hundreds of hours out of Stellaris before the first post-release DLC.

Filthy standard peasant! Kneel before the glory of #GalaxyMasterRace!
;)

Seriously though, nothing wrong with standard. I just like supporting PDX and if I get extra nubbins along the way, I'm ok with it :)

Bought galaxy for me , standard for girlfriend. its just support for paradox, this game will get years of support from them and community, which is much more worth than 1 year triple AAA games(where supports stops after 1.5-2years and after 4-5 years servers go down while those games are 10 dollar/euro more expensive at starting prices than stellaris).
So even with galaxy i have a feeling i get more bang(hours of gameplay) for bucks

Bought the standard edition myself, didnt find the special editions to be special enough to warrant the extra money.

Had they announed a big bulky box oldschool "limited collectors edition" with whatever silly little things to throw in it, id pay a helluvalot more for it tho :D

I bet we will see a "blorg" edition down the line!

If you simply want a cheaper one, why bother to buy it now? You can wait for steam discount.
