Majesty 2, arrival and pricing.

Majesty 2 arrives tomorrow or wednesday at the latest (its been sent from the vendor) and I cant wait to play it
It reminds me how bad prices are on the steam-store tbh.
Lets face it, I paid 109 Norwegian Kroners (NOK) for it with postage fees included. Too make this more readable for the international viewers (if any), im going to convert.

109 NOK = 12.57 Euros / 18.39 USD / 11.07 GBP

Now lets go to the steam store and see how much I saved buying the game retail. Ok, the price in steam is :
39.99 Euros.(49.72 USD / 29.93 GBP / 294.69 NOK)
Now lets see how much money I have saved ; 33.99-12.57 = 21.42 euros.

Too international users (inlcuding norway) I saved ; 21.42 Euros = 185.71 NOK / 31.33 USD / 18.86 GBP

In other words, I paid less than half price. And the best part is that I get my game tomorrow, while if I purchased the game on steam I would have to wait until the 18th of September.

A friend just posted some awesome gameplay of him and some friends (including me) playing the left 4 dead demo on expert (the second time we played the demo). And he posted another movie where we were doing syncronous dancing in Champions Online.

Majesty, oh damn.. the good old times! I used to play Majesty 1 at a friend his place.. long time ago though!

And yeah, Steam's offers are so damn over-priced..

Hi uberjannie, long time no speak. Have you played Majesty 2's demo yet? The demo didn't really sell me on the game, I must admit. I still have Majesty Gold on my PC, allthough it crashes a lot under Vista, and the second one doesn't look as good. I hope the 2 levels in the demo isn't a indication of what the final game will be like!

@MindlessTeef : You know what? The retailer managed to send me the wrong game..
No worries though, I dont have time to play this week anyways

@MindlessTeef : I dont really like that game too much. havent tried much after the patch, but I doubt there is much difference.

Read that uberjannie... ouch! So what you are saying is if they fix the AI via patch... then, AND ONLY THEN, should I consider buying it. Sounds bad... even worse than Empire TW's AI!
