Klaw 2 was kind enough to post them to YouTube; his announcement is here.dia8el said:
The Premium edition does not seem to have much that gathers dust - just a few CDs and a map. but did I understand CD Projekt RED corretly that there will be no "lower" version then the premium edition? So there won't be a release (on may17 at least) wich only includes the game DVD and an install guide, so all editions will have soundtrack and makingof right?
That's what they said. The standard edition of the game comes with so much more stuff than your average game that they're calling the standard edition "premium." And they're right; they are giving a hell of a lot with the basic edition, so in that sense, the name is justified. But "Premium" implies a lower edition, and there isn't one; all editions come with 1. Game DVD2. Making of video3. Soundtrack CD4. Game Manual5. Game Guide6. Map7. Pamphlet8. 2 Papercraft charactersIf you buy the boxed version, you also get the box (obviouslyxwlr said:

(And of course the Collector's Edition comes with yet more stuff, but you were asking about the basic/standard/Premium version.)So, I read they were to discuss the DRM topic on the conference.Have they came to any conclusions ?? I can't understand a thing in polish.
CDPR is against DRM, but they aren't in control of what the publishers decide, so the DRM of the boxed versions is still not certain. BUT there is a way to get the game completely DRM-free: Order from GOG.com.TW2 will be available from GOG.com on release day, completely without DRM, with extra content not present in other digital versions, and for !0% off. Can't beat that with a stick!Orochi82 said:
This is the best news I heard. Thanks ma'am. Can I buy games from gog.com, from any countries, right ??
*smile* You're welcome.Orochi82 said:
I don't know. I've only tried to buy from gog while in my own country, so I don't know if any countries block them. I do know that gog is advertising prices for the US, the UK, and the European Union, so they do sell to lots of countries. I suggest that you go to gog.com and check it out.
OMG, those guys are awesome. Pre Ordered without paying anything at all, received a special TW2 pre order pack with 4 sound tracks, wallpapers, avatars and pics of CD Projekt work enviroment. They accept Visa, so I think I'll have no problems making the payment through credit card.
Good lord, CD Red is simply the most generous company out there. I retract all negative vitriol and applaud their active stance against drm, as well as their inclusion of bonus material with their games. They go the extra mile when other companies are busy thinking of ways to rip off paying customers. Now if I can only find a working link to that conference...
Yes. CDPR doesn't just have fans; they have fanatically loyal fans. And they deserve them.slimgrin said:
Klaw 2 was nice enough to post the conference on YouTube. It's in four parts; Parts 1 & 4 are in Polish, and Parts 2 & 3 are in English. Here's Part 2.
Thanks for the link Corylea. Lots of good info. A good presentation I should say one thing. This demo is the original one we saw of course, but still looks like an unfinished build, ie, no lip synch, clunky animations, etc. It may still be Alpha build.I am looking forward to seeing updated gameplay.
They haven't really said, but that's my guess, too.eskiMoe said:I guess as many people as possible should buy the game from gog.com right? All the money goes to CD Projekt that way, or so I've concluded. One of the reasons I preordered from there..
Just to be sure, the boxed version will have DRM, right??? So we can't have both, a printed disc and printed stuff and a no drm game :3
