Elder Scrolls Online Pre-Order Bonuses
Yesterday the details for the Elder Scrolls Online collector’s edition leaked on the Amazon page for Dishonored, and today the details have been confirmed with Zenimax opening the game up for preorder. There are two bundles to choose from, standard and collector’s edition, and both have already sparked some controversy among fans. Preordering either edition automatically grants players the Explorer’s Pack, which includes the obligatory 5-day early access, vanity pet, and bonus treasure maps. The Explorer’s Pack allows players to roll on any faction, regardless of their race. Currently this is only listed as a preorder exclusive.
The Imperial Edition includes a metric ton of loot, including a 224 page illustrated book, a 12 inch Molag Bal statue, and a map of Tamriel. In-game, players receive a white horse mount, mudcrab pet, tradeable rings that grant bonus experience when grouped, and the ability to play as the Imperial race. To play devil’s advocate for a moment, anyone who purchases the standard edition has the option to later upgrade to the digital collector’s. The art of selling exclusive races seems to be getting more common, with last year’s Neverwinter offering an exclusive Drow race only with the purchase of a $200 package.
For now, check out the Arrival trailer.
Path of Exile Unveils $12 Thousand Founder Pack
The $200 Marvel Heroes “Access Everything” pack doesn’t seem so ridiculous all of a sudden, does it? Path of Exile’s closed beta turned in a sum of $2.5 million thanks to the sale of collaborator packs, allowing the game to continue development and funding Grinding Gear Games for now and into the future. With the launch of the game’s open beta, GGG has turned to selling open beta supporter packs that include cash shop currency, exclusive pets, titles, digital soundtracks, and more. The cost of each individual pack starts at thirty bucks and goes all the way up to over twelve thousand dollars.
Sure you could invest that twelve grand into something intelligent like a used car, an Associate’s Degree, paying off your debts, a down payment on a house, the stock market, investment bonds, mutual funds, bathing in gold dollars, making it rain, bribing a politician, buying your way into office in a small town, investing in the future of MMO Fallout, I’ve forgotten what we were talking about. Ah, yes, twelve grand. For $12,500 USD, you receive a number of weapon effects, vanity pets, a Path of Exile logo and Tabula Rasa t-shirt, skill tree poster, another poster that is signed, a keychain, two stickers, your name in the credits, a unique item based on your design, designing a custom monster, a physical model of said monster, ten codes for an in-game pet for said monster, and free international shipping.
Then again, anyone who purchases the twelve thousand dollar package likely has enough money that the investment is a drop in the bucket. You can check out all of the packages at the link below.
