Oh no, my apologies. I expressed myself unclearly and it led to a misunderstanding. I don't mean that there are new items in the game rather I meant that the collector's edition comes with a ton of accessories (whether one needs them or not is another matter). What I was trying to convey is that Larian is, in essence, advising me not to pre-order their games anymore. Because those who wait not only receive a bunch of small 'gifts' like stickers, posters, and a soundtrack CD for a modest additional cost but also a much more polished and playable game.
And amidst all this, I can't help but wonder where is the thank you to all the pre-order customers? It feels like, 'Here! Enjoy our unfinished product, and thanks for being the testers and reporting errors and bugs.' It's disheartening to see the lack of appreciation for those who show early support
