- the bonus Magic card are nice... except that I stopped to play Magic 20+ years ago... I feel I'm taking something nice from people who would dream to have those cards. I would also not like to sell them as it's part of my costly collector box.
- the other things are super nice and interesting, except that I would have loved to have 2 times the stickers : one to keep as collection, one to use
- the price is BIG ! I love BG3 and would be willing to buy... If I did not spent 60€ to buy the full game.
Lot of strange reasoning. Of course it's christmas season, the best season to promote something you want to sell. Nobody really takes into account you already bought cinema tickets, cancel them if you want to buy something else?

Yes that's pretty obvious than throwing out of the blue the collector's edition in the end of the second week of december is way too late for most people. Most have already spent their Christmas budget. The offer just came suddenly whereas we are still waiting for patch 9. It's obviously a very hard work to prepare all this package and they were probably working on it since the beginning. So it feels weird that suddenly they just throw that, with little explanations.
They usually elaborate very nicely, collect feedbacks, observe a lot most players reactions... Here it looks like they forced to rush the selling before Christmas, the FAQ is super small and the players advices were not sollicitated for once.
