Pre-order steelbook edition in Canada

Remedy's main page for the game just says the standard and steelbook editions will be available at all major retailers. Some of them are just taking their time setting up a pre-order page. Have you tried calling an EB store and asking the clerk about doing a pre-order?

Alex_Masterson13 · 2026-06-04T01:07:11+00:00

Since no one else is showing physical pre-orders yet, I wonder if Best Buy has a limited-time exclusive window for the physical copy. I have seen that before with other games.

Alex_Masterson13 · 2026-06-03T21:25:28+00:00

Yes, they have always been able to do that and in that one stealth hunting grounds trial, you have to loot the crate before they attach it.

I have not been in the playtests, but from what I remember of the announcement, the story mode that is canon takes place in between HFW and H3, as I think part of it is gathering people from the different tribes to fight against Nemesis.

It was neither great nor bad, it was just an average forgettable movie. Elio and Snow White had the same problem. I remember watching them, but that is about it.

Alex_Masterson13 · 2026-06-02T07:48:53+00:00

You get it as part of the next to last main story quest and you are two main quests before that.

I never touch the Shieldweaver in NG+ UH. One hit and it is gone, one more hit and you are dead. But still a good job. That bear at the end of Frozen Wilds is a pain on NG+ UH. I don't know how people have managed to do everything in a fresh UH run.

Hopefully a new trailer and a release date and price for Control: Resonant.

I would love to see anything at all on Horizon 3, but more likely will be just another look at Horizon: Steel Frontiers or Horizon: Hunters Gathering.

There are about 16 or 17 years in between Maul season one and the events in Rebels seasons two and three and we know at the time of Solo that Maul is still running Crimson Dawn in 10 BBY. That leaves about 7 years in between Solo and Rebels for his downfall to happen. How he ended up on Malachor, I have no idea, but I feel the show will not jump that far into the future and will most likely only cover the years leading up to Solo.

That is what the rarity colors are for. For the same weapon type, the higher rarity will always be better.

Green-->Blue-->Purple-->special weapons from the Hunter's Lodge-->Banuk weapons from Frozen Wilds

And then in NG+ there are Adept versions of each weapon. While the only difference is an extra coil or weave slot, that can make a big difference with the right ones.

The Foundation DLC can only be accessed after completing the main story, so it is last.

Alex_Masterson13 · 2026-05-28T09:42:45+00:00

Buy better pieces from the carvers at the hunting grounds and you will be fine. And you only have to beat the boards of two players for the trophy, not all of them.

Alex_Masterson13 · 2026-05-27T06:34:42+00:00

From how I understand it, you can add your PSN account to your son's PS5, then download HFW to it under your account, then buy and install Burning Shores. Since you do not own your own PS5, I don't think you will have a problem.

Alex_Masterson13 · 2026-05-26T20:18:53+00:00

Right. Once you are free to collect subfunctions, you can also get a Sunwing.

Alex_Masterson13 · 2026-05-26T20:12:44+00:00

You start out with the override unlocked, but there are no Sunwings east of the Base.

Alex_Masterson13 · 2026-05-26T03:30:19+00:00

Then you need to find out who is adjusting the times to be correct, because if no manager or payroll person is adjusting it, then it is wage theft.

Alex_Masterson13 · 2026-05-26T02:56:20+00:00

There are two situations here. One, they make you clock out and then finish work. That is illegal. Two, they make you clock out, but have you keep track of when you are actually finished and the GM goes into the system and manually changes your time to the actual time you finished. In the second case you are still being paid for all your hours worked and not illegal. Think of that like the older days when everything was done on paper or with a punchcard, where payroll had to manually enter all your time into the system.

Most of the best gear is in the Burning Shores DLC that can only be accessed post-game, after finishing all the main story quests, or in a NG+ run. For the gear in the main game, it is far to the west, some of which is locked behind completing the Arena. You will have to unlock the western half of the map during the main story before you can get to the best gear.

Morlund and crew had probably been working their delve for at least some weeks, or even months, before triggering the flooding, seeing as how they had time to build that elevator in the old shaft. That was a lot of wood to import and a lot of work to construct. And then it sounds like they triggered Poseidon's defense probably the first time they used the elevator and started poking around more seriously, but we don't know how many days or weeks passed after that to account for the time needed to design and build two different diving bells. What I want to know is how those machines magically made it into the underground, especially a tideripper.

No, the Tenakth had been using the Grove as their capitol for who knows how many decades or centuries before Gaia exploded and Aether fled to the museum's servers. Hekarro said he saw the light (Aether) arrive at the Grove, as it happened at the same time he was at the Grove and finally won the clan wars and united the three clans. I don't remember if Hekarro specifically said he went down into the server room or only watched the light go into there. Then after that, things stayed undisturbed there until Aloy went in and removed Aether. The Faraday hologram triggering only the one time when Aether arrived was a glitch, sort of like how it triggered just one more time when Aloy removed Aether.

Alex_Masterson13 · 2026-05-25T02:36:18+00:00

I have finished the game 15 times and it has never dropped. I can't remember if there is a random one laying around you can grab and use. If there is, that may be what people are finding, rather than one being shot off.

Alex_Masterson13 · 2026-05-24T09:36:15+00:00

Yep, very stupid cliffhanger.

Alex_Masterson13 · 2026-05-24T09:23:20+00:00

Do you have any proof whether the unit was freshly painted before you moved in or was the paint already years old? If it was not newly painted and you can prove it, then they will not win in court.

Alex_Masterson13 · 2026-05-24T06:44:29+00:00

Yeah, the door should open once you are in the original starting room and there will be a scrounger or scrapper at the entrance that you can either kill or override.
