My browser keeps crasing when I open the paradox store, and Steam doesn't have the info, so could someone tell me what exactly is included in the Nova(soundtrack and more?) and Galaxy(all of above +artbook, wallpaper and novel, right?)
 
Steam does have the info. Just scroll down. But here you go:

How do you get the new avatars? Maybe I just need to wait for Steam to push the info to Paradox.

EDIT: Yea, figured it out. There's a Sync button in your forum account.
 
Dang it, Paradox!
You're going to make me violate my no pre-order policy...




...(again). Your'e the only people who get me to cough up my money early. I wish you'd stop being so cool and tempting, or something.

So, is the Human Diversity pack from German Amazon a real thing after all? Because none of your pre-orders include it so I don't know what to think of it anymore.

No each version comes with its own icons.

UPDATE:
Screw it, you get all icons below the tier you buy :p. So if you buy Nova Edition you get Nova+Base icon, if you buy Galaxy you get Galaxy+Nova+Base.

We love you guys too much to not give you the awesome icons ;)!

And now I've dropped 70 bucks just to get moaaaaaaaar iconnnnnnnnssssssssssss.

  • Does Paradox get more money if I pre-order through Paradoxplaza?
    • Yes

You should consider putting differential prices on the Paradox store based on Geography as Steam does this. For my country, the price of Galaxy edition on steam (the actual steam store, not a third party giving out keys) is around $20.5. I would have bought on Paradox store as you guys receive more money, but the $50 difference between Paradox store and Steam is too big...
