Beta access for preorders has been cancelled suddenly by ubi with no explanation, apparently.

Yeah, but instead you get an EXCLUSIVE COMMAND SHIP.

So, if I'm a guy who loved the heck out of the other games in the series, but held back buying because I've been burned on a preorder before, is it safe to buy this game?

But then you still have to factor in that that 1 CEO is guzzling down literal tons of luxury food and champagne..

Why does this seem unreasonable to you?

This game is great, the 20 second unskippable seizure warning at the beginning is not.

That's why you should do eight hour marathons instead of playing for 30 minutes here and there.

I've got 109 hours in 2070 and I'm not even a crazy person. $30 for everything is a good price.

Venice is the expansion pack. It adds new stuff and espionage mechanics.

Give me the news doctor.
How bad is it?

Well, the problem isn't serious, but we have to cut out a few things and you'll notice them. The good news is that some of the things cut were causing you pain, so you might actually feel even better than you did before.

The best news is that this is an elective procedure and prices can only go down. If you're really nervous, wait until Christmas and there might be a sale.

That said, I think it's worth it.

My favorite is the organic food.

Yes arable land, water, and energy are at a premium, but god forbid we use pesticides and gene modded crops to make things more efficient.

I like to think that by this point in time they call it organic food to distinguish it from inorganic food, like mudcakes.
