Well, that fine too. Someone at reddit mentioned 8PM EDT for the bundle to go up, which is in two hours and a half.

I mainly want the bundle for the nice boat.

Edit:

There's going to be a three hour preorder period for the groupees bundle. Starting at 9 am PST/12 pm EST/5 pm GMT tomorrow. Also $3 - 2 games, $10 - 3 games, $20 - 1 game.

 

[Yuuichi]

Now that my computer has decided to start nagging me about it, it's time to ask:

Who's upgraded to windows 10 already and has compatibility insights, esp. for newer titles?

 

[Jotamide]

From chat: the tiers are $3-2 games, $10-3 games and $20-1 game. Also, limited bundle at 3k bundles total.

Spoiler

Also, a pre-order for $8 will go live at 9 pm PST.

I beat you to it. Also it's 9 am not pm.

 

[Shizuka]

I get it's limited to 3k copies, does that mean it might sell out during pre-orders? And how do you mean, $8 pre-order? Can't I pre-order the $20 one? Do we get to know which games are in during pre-orders?

 

[Dracandros]

It looks like I will be getting the $10 bundle at the least (assuming it's the original Osadai and not just the fandisc), regardless of the other 3 games (since School Days really isn't my cup of tea). Whatever the $20 game is...more like gravy.

This is still pretty exciting news anyway.

 

[Shizuka]

Having a $20 makes Steins;Gate not that an unlikely guess. I wonder if they're doing this to coincide with Otakon, maybe steal someone's (MG) thunder?

 

[JulianImp]

Might end up biting on the bundle. When are preorders supposed to open at?

9 am PDT/12pm EDT/5 pm GMT

 

[Marche90]

Geh... I would love to bite the bullet for the $8/10 tier, but I can only get the $3 tier (money's tight, yo).

OTL

I hope that at least we get something decent per tier and they don't focus on the $10 one only.

 

[Shizuka]

Also $3 - 2 games, $10 - 3 games, $20 - 1 game.

Does this mean if I pay $20, I get all six games?

 

[Jazz573]

Yep.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Right, open preorders while I'm at work, nice.

 

[Shizuka]

Yep.

Will we know the games during the pre-order period, or do we go blind if we want to pre-order it?

 

[Jazz573]

Will we know the games during the pre-order period, or do we go blind if we want to pre-order it?

Not sure. But we do know at least School Days and My Girlfriend is the President is in it. I wonder whether they'll pick Steins;Gate or Yo-Jin-Bo?

 

[cj_iwakura]

How difficult will it be to progress in Robotics;Notes once I've finished the show? I only touched on the prologue before watching the series, and I'm almost done.

I imagine this will work MUCH MUCH better as a VN.

Sony announces new Project Morpheus Technical Demo, “Cyber Danganronpa VR: Class Trial”

Preorder is blind. Since it's blind, you get to pay less for the whole bundle.
With the bundle being limited, I hope I manage to snag it during the preorder window.

 

[Jotamide]

Does this mean if I pay $20, I get all six games?

I think in the past when Groupees has done preorders, they sell you the bundle for a reduced price without unveiling the games.

Does that mean $20 is the reduced price or the full price?

 

[Lain]

8$ should be the reduced price to get the whole bundle during the blind preorder period (if the 8$ price for the preorder is true, that is).
Oh, and the countdown until the bundle goes live is up.

 

[Shizuka]

I just read it'll be 4NSFW and 1SFW. That SFW one will be the most expensive one, isn't it?

 

[yami4ct]

Hmmm. Bundle sounds interesting. Guess I'll likely bite on the Top Tier hoping for Steins;Gate. It's a cheap enough gamble I suppose. If it's not that, I'll have a bunch of other VNs to play anyway. I know School Days at the very least is.....enjoyable.

 

[Yuuichi]

Just a reminder the the SFW game could be Aselia rather than S;G.

 

[Jazz573]

But that would be a repeat then.

 

[gaiages]

Meh, I'll take the risk and preorder it, since $8 for the whole bundle (hopefully) will probably be a good deal.

I can't remember off the top of my head, was School Days the one with those horridly brutal endings? I've always wanted to give that one a shot

 

[Basileus777]

Yep. It's an animated visual novel with a bunch of bad endings.

Nice, thanks!

 

[Jazz573]

Preorder is not up yet.

 

[Basileus777]

I finished World End Economica episode 2 and it was pretty good. The unique setting and premise combined with good character work makes for a good read. Though I think the first episode was probably better, episode two certainly doesn't deliver the same gut punch that the first one had. I'm looking forward to the final episode. Oh, and Eleanor is the best.

 

[MikeHattsu]

Preorder is not up yet.

Something to watch while we wait:

[Shizuka]

Is the countdown there marking the beginning of pre-orders or the whole thing?

 

[Jazz573]

The whole thing. They're running behind apparently.

Edit: It's up!

 

[Jotamide]

It's live.

 

[Shizuka]

There we go:

Thank you for your purchase! You will get your bundle once payment is processed

 

[Basileus777]

I can't bring myself to buy this blind when there a good chance I already own much of the bundle.

 

[Jazz573]

I can't bring myself to buy this blind when there a good chance I already own much of the bundle.

You could just giveaway anything you already have.

 

[Shizuka]

What do I do now? Do I have to wait until the countdown is over in order to download the games?

 

[Jazz573]

Yep.

 

[MikeHattsu]

Did you get any mail from PayPal if you paid with that? Can't see any transactions in my PayPal account.

 

[Shizuka]

Weird, I used PayPal but I didn't get any email so far.

 

[yami4ct]

Bought it. At $8, what's the worst that could happen?

 

[Jazz573]

Weird, I used PayPal but I didn't get any email so far.

I did.

 

[Shizuka]

We noticed you tried to make purchase using Paypal.
If you made a payment you will see products immediately after Paypal processes it. Thanks!

Weird.

 

[yami4ct]

Weird.

I've got the same thing. I just think PayPal's being a bit slow to process.

 

[MikeHattsu]

Ok. PayPal has processed my payment now at least.

 

[Shizuka]

Ok. PayPal has processed my payment now at least.

Just got the email as well.

 

[Dracandros]

This should be fun, no matter what anyone says.

I'm happy with Osadai even if its the only thing I would play in it (I don't own it in any form).

 

[gaiages]

You could just giveaway anything you already have.

Or even sell the codes for games you already have super cheap to get some money back

Spoiler

Maybe even all of it, who knows

At least, I don't think that's against any kind of Groupees rules?

 

[Shizuka]

Why were people saying $8 net you the whole bundle? There were three options, I got the most expensive one for $18.
