Another good discount. I got the Elite Edition for $55, loading on the Steamdeck now. If you are part of their free membership program there's also an extra 2% voucher you can add on.

Yeah, 2game now has the Elite Edition listed for $55 as well but it looks like they may have run out of keys. Says keys will be available tomorrow.

e: Greenman link says $70 but it changes to $55 when you log in to your account.

Mine said $70 but when I signed in it dropped to 30 percent and now the final price for the elite version is $55.67

Before I take this CAW through RTE and get my rear end handed to me, once you finish it, can you take it back through and reallocate the skill points you get to it?

I just got matched with a Wardlow who did nothing but spam a fast clothesline that instantly knocked me down until I managed to get a counter in and grapple him to death, there seem to be a few weird moves that guarantee a knockdown with no kind of wind up

We're fucking built for this shit!
So I'm running Road to Elite as Lance Archer and is the game supposed to be this easy on Normal difficulty? Won the Casino Battle Royale with 13 eliminations (Darby had 5 and Chuck Taylor and somebody else each had 1). I've yet to lose a match and my All Out match against Jericho is next. I usually really, really suck at these types of games.

I tried it yesterday just to see what happens and if you load them into it again they start over with no stat points.

I dunno what happens at the end of the campaign on run 2 (whether you just get to keep the new stats and that’s a re-allocation all of its own, or if you can combine the two, or some mystery third option) because I didn’t feel like doing it over with the same guy right away, but thankfully just loading into the mode seemingly doesn’t make the stat reset permanent because when I backed out and started with another person my original guy had all his stats back.

The fact you get more stat points depending on what you do and the difficulty you play on makes it more complicated than just “finish RTE to get your stats”

After losing to the Bucks with Penta and Fenix, my son (9) declared that it is "the worst game of all time since you can't do anything and it's also very stupid and worthless." He then used Penta to beat me for the world title and stated that it is "so much fun and I love it; it's better than real wrestling."

it's really fun but i doubt ill unlock owen, i just don't see 100 exhibition matches being very fun with the limitations the game has. Is RTE the same for every character? I know there's branching paths but let's say I take like, Orange Cassidy and two other licensed wrestlers through RTE, how much of that is going to be repetition across playthroughs I wonder? stuck at work or i'd find out myself :(

FYI if you're using the 2game link: Discount code WARIO64 gives you an additional 10% off.

I bought the basic edition because I want to see how good it is before getting any extras. So far just adding a few extra wrestlers and mini-games doesn't feel worth the price hike for the upgrade, but I assume I'll be able to get those in a pack anytime in the future.

I did see that Abadon has funny text prompts instead of actual lines which is great but I can't imagine they change the lines for anyone else.

I had him as an opponent in a gauntlet match at some point but he didn’t get unlocked or anything so I guess that wasn’t the route that does that

He was too big for me to lift him so half my moves just ended in my guy giving up and grabbing at his back in pain

Very authentic

i had him and Brodie as tag opponents early on. who's ribbing me? is the 4tg block storyline that leads to the unlock.

John Silver did tell me i could join dark order on my next playthrough, so at least that's nice

You can spend the cash from RtE in the AEW Shop and when you finish your playthrough the skill points you've earned and haven't used get converted to cash.

It's very dumb that you can't do anything but bank points and cash as an AEW wrestler aside from buying very cheap cosmetics and temporary buffs. It would be a lot better if the CAW system had a ton of stuff to spend all those points on but functionally speaking like 80% of the currency you get has no point and will just sit there accumulating forever. Maybe that'll get better with more DLC, there just isn't enough stuff to spend the points and cash on atm

I was futilely trying to give Orange Cassidy more moves and there is no way to actually buy any of the stuff that looks like it should be buyable! If you try to you just get told you can't modify the skills of AEW wrestlers. But the UI looks like it extremely gives you the option to! It's bizarre

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.



I feel like there has to be more that they’ll add to the shop. They have a section called Moves that only has taunts

Is there any faster way to scroll through options in the moveset suite than just holding the direction up/down? It’s taking forever to get from the top of the list down

You can hold left or right on the d-pad and it's faster.

Yeah from memory if you go into the options from the main menu there’s a section called wrestler info or something like that, you can select any wrestler and see what skills they have available by pressing whatever button it tells you is ‘list skills’ on your platform.
