Victoria 2, box version. Now available from the Paradox shop!

[A_Dane]

Ya'll are aware that it's the same price as the preorder from GG right?

Now tbh, i've always been surprised at how cheap Pdox games are, as the majority of "bigger" game franchises costs atleast 40 bucks.

Now appareantly alot of people has bought it off GG for those 40, some of them might even have wanted a boxed copy, and as i said in my original post, some of them simply can't get it delivered. provided Pdox delivers to those countries, it might be so far out as some of you make it seem...

Today we are thrilled to announce the opening of our new and improved webshop - yes folks, you will now be able to get your physical retail boxes directly from Paradox! At the moment the shop is in BETA and Victoria 2 is the first and only title available. This means anyone who’s ever experienced difficulties finding our games in their local game store will now have a one stop shop to meet your needs. First edition stock is limited so it’s first come, first serve.

Visit www.gameplayoutlet.com to find out more. We’ll keep this thread open for questions and comments.

The American Price is fine - $39.99 at Amazon (free shipping),GG, and the Paradox shop

However, a quick look at just the Amazon UK Store Victoria 2 is selling for £24.99 with free shipping

Good idea, but I have to say this: £35 (£40 including delivery!) is just too much. Every main UK supplier (Amazon, Play, Gameplay etc.) are selling it for at least £10 cheaper than this, with free delivery. How do you expect to compete?

that's Amazones choice, some people can get it that cheap, others can not. And when the price for a physical copy of the game is the same as the digital it's not as big a problem as people are trying to make it out to be. It's like saying the digital distribution won't be as competitive, as we can all just order it cheaper and get a boxed version -.-

Any chance of you offering digital download as well as physical shipment in the future? The way it worked back when you released EU:Rome.

Nice, good luck this time around, I always enjoyed the service of the previous Paradox webstore.

The UK people complaining about the price should keep in mind that from a continental perspective UK game prices have been amazingly low ever since the pound took a nosedive some years ago.

Amazon UK does not ship software products to where I live. When it's a choice between Amazon and Paradox guess which one gets my business?

Also for me the site says $40 so seems pretty reasonable to me. It's the same price as Amazon US actually. Is it something to do with taxes?

As an additional service, it's a nice thing to have. Not competing with the middlemen (I doubt wholesalers would appreciate that), but providing access where the big companies do not, very nice indeed.

Wouldn't surprise me if they'd prefer you to use the commercial channels if those are available to you, so it can remain a small scale venture to provide the game to those fans who would normally lose out.

Is this shop using the same payment methods as Gamersgate? Because none of the Gamersgate payment methods allow me to make a payment without providing way too much information (and ClickandBuy managed to make the link to "Terms and Conditions" respond with a 404, which is instilling me with unbounbed confidence in their ability to run a secure operation. Also, my answer to the password recovery question seems to be something they disapprove of).

Why was Paynova dropped? That one worked (I even used it and everything).

You can pay using credit card or direct payments via Nordea Solo (Nordea customers only) and payments via Moneybookers eWallet. Paypal will be added later.

Gamersgate is another company, so I can't answer why they dropped Paynova.

Sadly, it is standard, and I think it's ridiculous. I won't pay more than £25 for a game. If it means I have to wait, then I'll wait.

i cant remember the last time i paid more than £25 for a boxed pc game online. i normally buy from amazon.co.uk as they always way cheaper than buying online.

shop around mate.

I will look forward to order CK2 from the webshop
