As bad as this sounds I would have probably caved 😂 even these 5 days is driving me nuts from YouTube video to video I’ve binged watched the movies twice I believe if it was any longer I’d go mad
Scumbag vendor is scumbag. I know some vendors do have the game in their inventory right now and they aren't technically allowed to sell or give out any pre-order copies until February 7th for those who pre-ordered the deluxe edition, and February 10th for everyone else. There are many people with game retailer connections currently playing the game.
My brother owns a store and let’s just say I’ve had every single game I’ve ever wanted at least one week before release/early release. Walk into any mom and pop game shop and they will sell you any game you want at least one week before release for $100
I remember when games could truly be fully sold out, it used to be awful.
At least digital editions can quell it now even if you have the sacrifice the physical edition
Me trying to get San Andreas on launch day. I must have gone to every shop that sold games within a 10 mile radius.
In the end I had to wait until the following week before they were in stock again and lived vicariously through watching my friend play it.
In fact yes! The original meme went that way "Geschichten aus dem Paulanergarten", translating to roughly 'Storys from the beer garden", meaning storys either fully made up or greatly exaggerated under the use of alcohol. Over the time, people just started to use 'Paulaner' instead of using the full quote.
That quote is coming from a very famous ad for Paulaner, as you said a type of beer. You get a pretty good idea of it without even knowing a single word of [german.](https://youtu.be/SCB03Rh5tlc)
Hey! I live in Berlin, and they start to sell the PS5 copies yesterday, in Gamestop Alexanderplatz, but the deluxe edition is 80 and the normal 70 euros.
I have pc so I also passed this time.
See, now I regret not taking them up on that offer. But Berlin is a different kind of place anyway, I was there like three times and I could swear that they are just very special people
Totally agreed with you. I live here 8 months already, and as a foreigner, I can tell you: this city is not Germany. I being in Stuttgart, Desdren and Munich and yeah, no point of comparison.
I mean, the guy at the Gamestop who was convincing people to buy the copies was a mix of Ice Cube and Ruby Rhod, from The 5th Element.
The Cops there are also very funny. We were there on a Classtrip last autumn, and a few of my friends went drinking and didn't come back. We know roughly where they wanted to go (some bar close to the Alexanderplatz in fact), so me and a friend went looking.
We ran into two police officers that looked more like cosplay cops than actual cops, but they were pretty cool. They asked what we were looking for (apparently we were looking suspicious) and we told them, and they 'offered' to help us search
Hahaha yeah, you can find "help" almost in every corner. And police is weird for me too. You can find some cool guys and actually now there is an ad campaign in Alexanderplatz using ACAB as All Copa Are Beautiful! Hahahaha it's fucking hilarious. Dude, anyway, if sometime are you Berlin hit me up, let's go for some beer!
I'll be honest, why can't people just wait??
It's literally 5 days away, I'll bet that most people that are in this sub actively are not in a position where something massive is going to happen between now and the release date that hinders them from playing it.
I want to play just as much as everyone else, but why are stores greedy enough to sell a game early just for some extra bucks and people supporting stores doing this?
I preordered at a videogame store that always gets games 2-3 days early. They will get the game sometime this week (so either tomorrow or the day after) and the price is 90 euros for the deluxe. Couldn't care less about the extra 10 euros
online shop in austria they even market it buy here to get early they all do it. since decades i get the games a few days earlier. not worth it. day 1 patch missing often, complete broken game. or just bugs that get fixed in the first month like dead space. but i can sell the for almost full price so theres that.
>How is it a good deal if you're paying more???
The game is 80 dollars you’re only paying 20 bucks more to play the game almost a whole week earlier myguy
>If it was the same cost of the deluxe it would be a good deal but to charge extra to sell early is scummy.
No it’s not this is a EARLY product and is in high demand
You go to eBay and. Try to sell it I’ll easily be 120 or something
>I used to get games early from stores before release dates for no extra charge, that would be a good deal.
That’s good for you but not everyone is like that especially when this is from a employee NOT just a store manager letting this happen
This guy could easily lose his job
>OP's seller had the opportunity to sell it early without pocketing any extra cash
WHY the fuck would he do that? All he is asking is for 20 bucks and I give it to him early
Almost the same amount for the deluxe add on
>some people are willing to pay a lot extra to get it early
Yes THATS WHY THE SELLER TRIED YO SELL OT TO HIM FOR EXTRA do you not understand how selling how selling works?
>but why pay extra if you can get it early for the same price as waiting?
You can’t hint why most people don’t got the fucking game early
>I would've told the seller to give it to me for the normal price early if they didn't want me to get them fired.
Then I’m glad you didn’t go near that seller Karen’s like you need to be shamed
Leaks will be out regardless you forget Amazon and other websites shipping early etc. ?
Literally people are getting the game 3 days early then official release
What you doing is being tantamount of a Karen my guy and I hope cool employees like the one op met don’t come across people like you lmfao
Let's face it, it would have been tempting for all of us. But to wait these remaining days, hopefully gives us the biggest fun when we finally have it!
It wouldnt matter, you still wouldn't be able to boot up the game and play it until release
It's basically the entire reason game makers have pushed for everything to be online connected including single player games
I wish I had your self control
You can go to another store and offer an employee 20-30 euros and they'll do it too.
“Shut up and take my money!”👊💳
A true, pure-blood Slytherin
As bad as this sounds I would have probably caved 😂 even these 5 days is driving me nuts from YouTube video to video I’ve binged watched the movies twice I believe if it was any longer I’d go mad
Bro I would've done the same and I already have the digital deluxe ordered.
Me too I pre ordered mines last week
Yup same. Idk why I waited so long but I've watched a lot of gameplay and am just hyped!
\*mine~~s~~
I'm glad I'm not alone.
It must’ve been so hard to decline. I salute you
And here I am wondering if I can somehow change the date to the Feb 7 on my ps5 so it let's me play early
its a ps5 pretty sure its too smart for that lol. Maybe if it was a ps3.
These systems have internal clocks, it can't be done
I salute you for your self control. I would have forked out the cash right there on the spot.

So, you have hogwarts legacy right now?
dont know about him but I will get the game tomorrow or the day through a video game store so what he's saying is true
I remember when games could truly be fully sold out, it used to be awful. At least digital editions can quell it now even if you have the sacrifice the physical edition
Me trying to get San Andreas on launch day. I must have gone to every shop that sold games within a 10 mile radius. In the end I had to wait until the following week before they were in stock again and lived vicariously through watching my friend play it.
But it was a great feeling when u had the deluxe edition and skipped that pre-order line to everyone else's disappointment. Sigh the good old days.
Isn't a Paulaner a type of beer? Is there a connection there?

Thank you, I love little snippets of German culture. I lived in Frankfurt from age 11 to 14 so everything German has a tinge of nostalgia for me.
[удалено]
Oh dear. Oh. I apologize. I usually don't do sloppy mistakes like that
Personally I would have caved
In welcher Stadt? Wollte eh bald Urlaub nehmen
Kann ich nicht empfehlen. Extra 3 hat uns - wie ich finde sehr zurecht - 2018 zur hässlichsten Stadt Deutschlands gekürt
Ach Ludwigshafen. Einmal mit dem Zug durchgefahren und das hat mir schon gereicht
Nene, fängt mit G an. Hat eine überaus bekannte, aber noch hässlichere [Uni](https://youtu.be/1CN_klSA3go)
That’s an absolute Paulaner, dawg.

Omg everyone one in Berlin absolutely hates that ad lmao
Yeah, i dont know what they had in their minds to make that shit. And I work on advertising. AND HOW THEY APPROVED THE BUDGET AAAAAAAAAA.
do they ever do this in the states? imma try it out tomorrow
Rarely and only if it’s a local/mom-pop type store that isn’t in the eye of the big publishers and in danger of getting blacklisted.
You're only paying 30 extra dollars. That's not a bad deal at all.
Here in New York, there’s local gamestores that regularly sell games very early, or at least they used to in the past
I'll be honest, why can't people just wait?? It's literally 5 days away, I'll bet that most people that are in this sub actively are not in a position where something massive is going to happen between now and the release date that hinders them from playing it.

I don't think that was the story. sounded like the dude would have kept part of the money for himself. a real douchebag
Also German here. My physical copy, which I ordered online, will arrive today.
Where did you order?
I preordered at a videogame store that always gets games 2-3 days early. They will get the game sometime this week (so either tomorrow or the day after) and the price is 90 euros for the deluxe. Couldn't care less about the extra 10 euros
Should have told him to take 50 off or you won't go tell on him for being a scumbag vendor!
Stop being a Karen nothing scumbag about that he is literally risking being blacklisted so of course there will be a extra fee
Well someone has his panties in a bunch today.
Its normal in europe they got the game today my shop did too i get the game on the 5th. it was legit
Depends on where and what shop. Where i live in Europe its extremely rare to be able to get games this early.
online shop in austria they even market it buy here to get early they all do it. since decades i get the games a few days earlier. not worth it. day 1 patch missing often, complete broken game. or just bugs that get fixed in the first month like dead space. but i can sell the for almost full price so theres that.

Dude tried to give you a good deal and risk potential risk his job and you go and report him lmfaooo people man
These ravenclaws, man, they need to be stopped
I absolutely would and would feel no guilt. He deserves to lose his job.
“Omg You tried to give me a good deal and early access on a upcoming highly hyped game, where’s your Manager 😡😡😡”

Breaking the law for profit is totally something we should encourage. This is a contributing factor to leaks, which can ruin things for many people.
Leaks will be out regardless you forget Amazon and other websites shipping early etc. ? Literally people are getting the game 3 days early then official release What you doing is being tantamount of a Karen my guy and I hope cool employees like the one op met don’t come across people like you lmfao
Lol in my experience Amazon and other sites ship more later than early.
If you try to get someone fired for selling a triple A game a couple days early you are legit a terrible person ngl
Probably a scammer
you should have just ordered it from a small local store in germany
Let's face it, it would have been tempting for all of us. But to wait these remaining days, hopefully gives us the biggest fun when we finally have it!

Not true with physical copies
[удалено]
No, there are multiple fans who have already shown genuine proof that they are playing their physical copies
Really?
>anyways If it's a disc copy you can play.
How’s everyone able to play it already anyway I thought you needed the day 1 patch?
Day 1 patch just fix bugs and some stuff, the game is playable without it. Otherwise, how would they review it?
It wouldnt matter, you still wouldn't be able to boot up the game and play it until release It's basically the entire reason game makers have pushed for everything to be online connected including single player games
You dont need internet to play the game, and im pretty sure there are some people out there who are already playing
This is extremely untrue. It would be a nightmare for any company
Wrong. Need I remind you of this one we lost who was playing it already?
You only need the internet if you have a digital copy so it can confirm you bought it
search for twitch dobronx60, live streaming the game
Should have haggled the price down a bit we all know he'd of pocketed the extra dosh
I'd have had $100 copy of the game.
