Dark Souls 3

Was reading all the posts about shipped games and got worried, logged into my account with Game Collection and no sign of my order!
Logged into my PayPal account and money was taken!
Quick query to them this morning and, it turns out I bought it as a guest, that's why it didn't show up.
Better still, it was shipped out yesterday!
Happy days!

Nothing yet from Parcel Motel, would usually have gotten an e-mail from them by now.

Yeah I've heard nothing either, mine was despatched yesterday at 11.30, what time for you and Taltos?

Taltos

Not happy.
Went down to collect the game. Only thing I'd ordered recently.
The Game turned out to be something my wife ordered instead so still no DS3.... Probably tomorrow now or mon

Bought PC version on gamesplanet for €40, preloading now. I remember finishing dark souls 1 and then trying the pc version....the framerate is a massive improvement.

We need more information, don't leave us hanging.

Who did you order from? What time was it despatched? Did you use parcel motel? Where do you live, your date of birth and your bank account number?

I miss game manuals, I feel like a Dark Souls one would be pretty as hell

What's the story with Estus here? Dark Souls 1 or 2 style, or consumables like Demons Souls and Bloodborne

No idea. Ordered from The Game Collection on the week no they had 10% off. Got this and two copies of ratchet and clank for 80GBP.

Just read that Hidetaka Miyazaki is back helming this one. I've been waiting on buying a PS4 for the last year, so this game might finally persuade me to get it.

First boss is super easy, lulled me into a false sense of confidence, then..... dragons and giant tentacle monsters.

Dude keep your spoilers in tags till the game is actually out.

Taltos

Haven't played yet but the manual is a cry back to older games.
Great introduction for newbies with loads of tips and advice...

I'm in a similar boat, just under a 2 hour drive to Dublin for me so I never get it the same day parcel motel receive it but it never takes more than 24 hours for them to store it unless they get it on a Saturday.

But that seems to be the norm now with a lot of releases being on Tuesdays, anyways, I can't really complain seeing as I'll still be getting it a day early.

They used to be better with it, but the service has taken a good dip in quality in the last 6 months or so, I have had a few debacles with them in that time, before that I never had an issue.

Might take Monday and Tuesday off now

Just ordered a PS4 online to play this game next weekend. I've never bought a Souls game when it came out before, usually months after but I enjoyed seeing loads online when I bought the DLC (in contrast to few online when I bought the games themselves) so I'd expect loads online next week too.

Anybody bought the game on Gamesplanet? It's 20 quid cheaper than on steam but there are some not so great reviews of that company online so not sure if I want to chance it.

Edit: Never mind just went ahead with it because I'm too impatient. Steam key was delivered about 3 minutes after ordering and is currently pre-loading
