    Nope. Not at all. Unless you count 2.5 months of delay.

    New area maybe? Or possibly an exclusive item?
    Or like the collecters edition of bg2, maybe there is a new merchant which sells several exclusive items?

    I heard a rumor that it's a coupon for one free shoe-shine at the Edmonton Airport*.

    *that expired in August. (It's the thought that counts.)

    @Aosaw I don't know if we have shoe shining at the airport... I'll check tomorrow but no guarantees.

    @Coriander Actually, I was thinking that @Nathan would just meet us there and shine our shoes for us. But fingers crossed!

    preorder only gameplay boosts in this case will punish non PC users.

    Nothing wrong with that! :P

    (I'm kidding, in case it wasn't obvious)

    Edit: I could see them doing it anyway and just making some other way for mac / tablet users to get it because that's just how Overhaul rolls.

    It's a game modification, that makes Gorion win battle with Sarevok.

    Supposedly that actually used to happen when BG was originally in development. They had to tone down Gorion.

    I am hoping for cookies.

    Perhaps it's a pie, I do love pie.

    At least we can rule out cake. As we now know, the cake is a lie.

    I thought it was a slightly cooler forum badge than the other people who just preordered it after it was initially supposed to come out.

    Or Pie! I like pie!

    Perhaps we will be able to pre-order the ankheg plate in Beregost?

    Tone down Gorion AND autoscript him to die. I've had playthroughs where Sarevok didn't land a single hit before Gorion kicked the bucket.
  • sepottersepotter Member Posts: 367
    For all that's worth, I understand that Gorion has to die for the story, but I really wish the battle was much more epic, much more.

    The suprise is the intro cinematic.

    It has been replaced for all those that pre-ordered with the video "Il Pulcino Pio".

    Oh my god, can I un-order now please? Before it gets stuck in my head? One delivery of BGEE please: late, very late.

    Pre-order bonus: Aec'Letec joins Sarevok in the final fight!

    @revaar I think a great deal of the BG PC population just sees it as a privilege that we even get to have the game and that we should be thankful for that. But I agree with you, the PC gamers getting a reward for pre ordering is stupid.

    Its not a reward for pre-ordering, its a reward because of the unexpected and last-minute delay for the pre-orderers.
