Given all the stuff you get with this game I am seriously considering preordering.. I think you get the first DLC for free as well correct?

I'm thinking about it, but it makes me sad that what use to be standard is now a 'special' edition. There are some nice things, but if any of you have been playing PC games long you know what I mean.

Continue... why is it specific to PC Gamers, just curious?

I suppose console games also use to always come with a good manual, but PC games used to be filled with stuff. I have several games on my shelf with books over 100 pages, and those were standard releases. I don't think it's a bad thing, except the manuals. I still want my manuals. Because they are catering to the current generation. They don't want to read through any lore or anything like that. They want the game to do it all. I'm a middle of the road kind of guy. I appreciate the extra lore, but I want to be able to grasp the story of the game soley based on the game.

I agree with you 100%.. I miss my manuals to thumb through these online or ingame manuals are lame.. I remember some manuals were like freaking novels in and of themselves..
