Anticipated Drakengard 3 Collector's Edition

[Madigan]

It's still funny to see it available and the big SOLD OUT screenshot below, what a bunch of amateurs. They don't care, 5000, 10,000 is all the same.

As long as they don't screw up my order, I'm fine with numbers too. I don't want to see a mass cancellation.

How can you guys be fine with the numbers if it turns out to be more than 5,000? They advertised as an exclusive edition of only 5,000 units being produced. Which I imagine is the only reason most people bought it at $80.00 in the first place, Drakengard really does not have that large of collector fanbase (the other games aren't that special), which is why I assume it's still in stock.

Because I am not buying it as an investment? I actually somewhat enjoyed the first two of the series. It will be a bouns to have the CE going up in value but that's not the reason for my preorder. I just want a copy.

I couldn't have said this any better...

kudos.

Even if you're not buying as an investment is just bad business and I do not like being lied to. You should not be ok with shady companies that pull that type shit because they think they can get away with it. If they are going to have more than 5,000 they should be upfront about it.

That type of thing only really matters for monetary value, though. I'm not someone who will ever sell, so I wish there were 30k+ of every steel and CE made. Then they would all get cheaper eventually! I fully agree that they should NOT lie, and they should be upfront. It's just that--depending on why one wants the item--a situation like this can be of no consequence at all.

With that being said, there's no actual proof to how many CE's have actually been sold.

look at SRIV GOTG edition... that was "limited" with a limited numbering plaque and next thing you know they were still being sold on amazon, a month or less after it was sold out.

Very true. It's a very niche series, and SE having little to no marketing for it--and the CE being a SE store exclusive on their shitty store to boot--certainly aren't helping. They may have cut the pre-orders off from the first round at a set number to save some for later. Or maybe they cancelled all of play canada's orders, so like half the stock opened back up... lol
