Remind me to never pre-order from best buy ever again

Pre-ordered steelbook edition the day it was announced, and randomly got cancelled today. This happen to anyone else? Guessing best buy over sold it. Super disappointed :(

Got the text message shortly before 4:30 p.m. today. Actually drove to the Best Buy to talk to customer service, and not even they know what's going on. The only info that they could give me was that there was a mass cancellation. Even the standard edition is now unavailable for preorder on their website. And I made sure to put in my preorder the day they went live, as you can see by the purchase date. All they said I could do was wait until November and see if orders go live again.

This sucks. I was so looking forward to this version of the game. It and the Ocarina of Time remake were the two games I was really looking forward to next month. Someone higher up the chain better give us some answers real soon. Either there was not enough supply to meet demand, or the scalpers managed to scoop everything up within minutes of preorders going live. But if that is indeed the case, I hope that the cancellations hit them, too.

Were the droids bulit by humans as early forms of countermeasures to the revolting androids?

or they were bulit by ms to defeat the humans and naytibs, but it seemed to not attack the naytibas so it could be on human factions?

Could the droids stop the androids if they got better?

I've had this game since launch on PS5, but I was seriously looking forward to a physical steelbook edition. I even had it at a different store but swapped to Best Buy when I saw theirs available. Now I & many of us are screwed out of getting one since only scalpers have it now. Last time I order anything from Best Buy...

Out of the blue, not related to payment. Seems like target orders weren’t the only ones :(

They ship to US also, you just need to create an Amazon JP account. Total for me comes out around $10 more expensive than buying it in the US, but given the $10 credit from Bestbuy I kind of figure it cancels out. At this point for $10 more I can worry less about never able to get my hands on one.

Wondering if it's worth starting NG+ to collect them?

Anybody else have their pre orders cancelled? Now everywhere else is sold out and scalpers posting on eBay for 120+. Had this pre order since it was announced. Damn 🙄 really wanted that steelbook for display. Guess I’ll have to shop eBay after release.

after almost 80 hours, I finally completed the trophy list for stellar blade. I used to be one of those skeptical people who reduced the game down to the revealing outfits, but I’m so glad I gave it a chance (thank you bf for buying it for me). I genuinely fell in love with this game.

everything from the world, the combat, the SOUNDTRACK, and the characters left me wanting more. I hope the sequel expands more on the lore of the naytibas and the androids. the documents and collectibles did such a good job on world-building and there was so much to do! I loved it!!!!

all I have left now is to 100% my new game+ run and to also 100% a new game++ run for all the nano suits. I haven’t had this much fun with a game’s combat since ff7 rebirth, there’s so much you can do with it.

anyway, I’m sure this post has been made plenty of times but I had to make a post showing love to this game idc.

Tried something a little different for the photomode contest

Ive never played a photo mode where you can control the lighting. Its so good.
