The thing is I don't have a credit card and don't use Paypal. I heard that it is only available in retailers in the Gold Edition. Why isn't Dark Avatar being released as an expansion pack in stores?
It's not easy for a small company to get good shelf space, and even harder (and costlier) to get retailers to carry two products in the same group at once. So instead of putting DA only out there and leaving those who don't already have GC2 with no way in, the Gold version is the solution so everyone can get DA, new and old players alike.
Note that if you have the retail version of GC2 already, you will be able to use a mail in $10 rebate in GC2 Gold so it only costs as much as DA alone would in the end.
As i do have the game, but im not going to pay 40 buck to get it again for the expansion and the original version, even so i dont use credit cards. sure, the game is cool and the developers do deserve the money for a nice job. But i just want the expansion.
And im thinking is a lame excuse for store to say lack of shelf space and just to make companies pay more money due to lack of space, as like the stores i allways go, as im betting theres more than 500 used traded in from each console games lying around for months and they dont even have space for PC games.
Well, i guess i have to wait for the prices to drop to get a gold edition for just the expansion.
Thanks for the answer.
