Hey Guys,

Hope everyone is having a great weekend so far.

This is just going to a be quick heads up as to what to expect once you pick up your pre-order and prepare yourself for your early start. If you want to be surprised when you open your box, please do not read any further, as this also contains the layout of what's inside your box.

The First thing I noticed is that the plastic sleeve is a bit prone to tearing when trying to put it off and on the actual box. So be careful if it's something you want to keep.

When you open the box, you'll notice that on the left is the the actual game case, and on the right is the journal and the security token. There is nothing underneath any of these, so again, if the box is something you want to keep, make sure you do not pull either out.

The Journal and the Security token are pretty straight forward, so let's move on to the game case. After opening the game case, you'll notice the game, and the instruction manual. Behind the Instruction manual there are several leaflets, MAKE SURE TO SAVE ALL OF THESE LEAFLETS as they contain your preorder bonus, your Rite of Passage, your Buddy Pass, regristration card, and so forth. When I opened mine up, one slipped out and fell on the floor, so they may be laid out in different ways depending on the case.


If you have any questions guys, let me know. I'll be happy to answer them for you.

CE was only £39.99($62.20) here, thats basically the normal price of games here in the UK

Amazon for you guys is charging $74.54 (£47.91) so i'm guessing we're getting it cheaper but with a bonus item.
Gamestop is $74.99 (£48.20) so i'm still seeing a cheaper comaparison to the US Edition but with a Material map and a tumbler.

So i'm seeing about $12 price difference for you guys and we get more stuff, not rubbing it in, just saying we're not paying more for the tumbler, we're actually paying less.

Hope I'm not necroing a thread here but did anyone read that the tumblers are almost useless to drink out of since it warns not to put anything with salts or other minerals in it leaving only water or tea left to consume from?

I also heard a lot of reports that the tumblers came dirty or possibly damaged in shipping. Anyone else heard this? I actually wanted one of the tumblers but I am in USA

Well I hope i'm not feeding stereotypes and all here, but as an Englishman - if the tea box is ticked, can you really ask for much more?
