Very disappointed in Digital Deluxe items. Not as Advertised.

Yup, some people are easily pleased even when what they get is nothing like it was described.

Waiter!, we need moar whine

Maybe I am the odd man out. But I so didnt buy the CE for any of the in game items. It was all about hte physical items inside.

I'm dissapointed too, I have expected much more from the CE items

I guess the flare gun and holo dancer is fine to spam and the STAP which is 8k. Everything else is worthless. Like someone said earlier, should have been 5 dollars instead of 20.

Aye utter garbage, lol I feel a right mug buying it.

The funniest thing is the HOLOCAM! "Keep visual records of your in-game adventures as you travel the Star Wars galaxy" ..the lamest thing EVER. haha.

I liked Rift's collector's edition. The mount scaled with your riding skill and was usable at level 1. And I am a vanity pet collector, so getting that was nice too. You also got a larger starting inventory bag and "founder" pricing for subscriptions ($2 cheaper per month than regular price).

What sold me on the SWTOR Digital Deluxe was the vanity pet and the speeder. The droid sits in my bank and the speeder will save me some credits... but 8k credits is not that much at that level. I don't necessarily think it needs to be usable at level 1, but if it scaled with riding skill that would be awesome. Really hope they turn the droid into a pet.

So yea... I would like to see some improvements made to the digital items as well. Awesome post to the OP - very well written.

That being said, the game is very fun and I am enjoying it!

I couldn't Agree with you more....If you haven'nt noticed by now, CE items in almost ALL MMO are utterly useless. I dont know why but if I had to guess it would be because of the QQers complaining that they're gimped because they aren't as rich as the CE havers. Just my opinion.

Too bad you have to put a disclaimer before your post otherwise the fanbois jump all over you.

Because no other game has ever had scaleable items/mounts right.

Has anyone ever noticed that the anti-WoW crowd tends to bring up WoW way more than the people who actually played it?

Give it a rest. WoW was informed by many MMOs before it, just like SWTOR is informed by WoW and many MMO's since.

This is how genre's work, people. Get over it.

Agree completely. This is one BIG disappointment!
To compare, In Aion they gave you some nifty items, including Wings (there was an analogue but it cost A LOT for that lvl range).
Oh well.
And I do not believe Bioware will do anything to amend this.
unfortunatelly.
