Hey WnB, I agree on the face of it that it is not that big a deal. But let's put it in perspective. I am in the US and will not be affected by this. Are you in US or UK?

I guarantee you I would feel (and act) VERY differently if DR was a EU product that was not getting updates and add-ons to those of us stateside until after they had been playing "over there" for a month or two.

I assure you I would be lighting fires all over these fora and drumming up support for my cause. I think to be fair, there should already be a mechanism in place for non-US distribution before public availability. Perhaps Amazon.com? PayPal is another option I have been told is a "no-go" but not for any particular reason. (Maybe PayPal killed Stephen's dog?)

At any rate, I think it will definitely cause a rift between the haves and the have nots if there is an appreciable difference in availability of these enhancements.

I was just about to say (earlier during my lunch break, but didn't have a chance to post...) that there's nothing stopping US from sending to over seas.... Good call rip!

I think that most have spoken their mind about this now and this thread is growing really big so I guess it's time to sit back and let the crew come to a decision. We aren't coming anywhere as it is now. :P

Yeah, you DR financial guys should smoke more crack.

The Gnome should not be exclusive to the retail pack because new players won't see its benefit. All members should receive this reward.

I really hope you guys have decent distributors and a marketing plan to move these CD's. I'm a bit scared you guys will be stuck with a closet full of retail boxes and DR will fold soon after.

I like the idea of DR in a box. If only there could be new areas included and leveling past 100.

I wouldn't worry to much about that. DR wont be the first "Free" game to try a retail box. Just look at games like SHOT online.
