I just wanted to say that Flamelurker is pretty fucking nasty on NG+. Sheesh.

The Korean versions (which are also supposed to be in English) have been knocked down to 29.90 each (plus you can save 2 more dollars by buying them both together).

My copy's apparently shipping tomorrow, so the fateful day approaches.

Well, I bought your little game, and then some big asshole with an axe one-shotted me.  For which I blame Schild.

My only complaints thus far is that fighting with a rapier sucks harshly without using the lock-on, with wonder-dude viciously attacking the space six inches away from his opponent, and that working out what the hell is going on when the tutorial dumps you in the Nexus is a bit unintuitive.  Aside from that, everything's doing okay thus far.  Yay magic killy arrow, boo having to unequip my sword to use it.

So how long does ordering from NCSX to Europe usually take?

NCSX appears to get a batch roughly every two weeks.  Their warehouse seems to be in New York, so Europe would require transcontinental shipping and however long that takes.

Use this guy:

http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/hk-wan_W0QQ_nkwZQQ_armrsZ1QQ_fromZQQ_mdoZ

He shipped to Sweden in like five days.

I'm a bit paranoid when it comes to Ebay. I guess I just have to get over myself and do it.

Just check the feedback.  I used dave123, for example, and he was great.  The benefit is that the package ships directly from HK instead of going to NY then HRE.

So with the press release saying it'll be released in the US, should I wait until then or should I inport it? What would be the difference between the two games?

Just buy it.  Trust me, you won't want to wait.  It is too good.

Sorta true, I'm buying it again when it comes to America just to play with Americans. I bet they don't bow when you join multiplayer. Or maybe the old guard can bring that habit over. I guarantee the PvP will be better in the American release. Highly doubtful the multiplayer will be though.

If you like having a manual that you can read, buy the NA version.

No manual or strategy guide will prepare you for Boletaria. Hell, they won't even really prepare you for the tutorial boss. I'd recommend not reading anything, but that's just me. If any game ever deserves a double-dip, it's this one.

Oh, right, I did not mean to imply that the manual was helpful in any way.  That's what the wiki is for, and even then it won't help you suck less.

Sounds like a straight-up release of the same version that I already have.  Any notes on changes in the NA release?

Considering it's a Fall release, I would ASSUME we'll get AT LEAST one if not two patches (probably on the asian version so they can test them) and at best, we'll get a 6th archstone. God. Sixth archstone. Want.

Cursing and flinging controllers is a vital stage in gamer development.  Any gamer who misses that most important step grows up into a pussy who thinks that Halo is hardcore gaming.

No, you bottle up that shit.  No one is throwing my DualShock 3 at my $3000 TV.

I don't know of anyone who ever broke a tv by throwing a controller. Lamp? Sure. A controller? Obviously. But who throws it at the screen? Even 5 year olds don't do that.

I fly off the sofa when someone gets close enough to the screen to put their finger on it.

Shit be hard, especially when you've never owned a console before. I think it's the second game I play seriously with a gamepad. But I got Phalanx on my third attempt, yay.

Edit:
Oh, and I'm not even close to throwing the controller yet. A couple of "cunt" as most. I guess I had that stage with QuakeWorld.
