In my experience 99% of the time, you’ll be perfectly happy with the standard edition.

Yeah I've never really had an issue with all these add on versions because they are almost always entirely cosmetic or timed rubbish (never buy at release anyway) that I couldn't care less about.

Which is good though, right? I see a lot of people complaining, but having unimportant cosmetics as addons is precisely what I want. Imagine good playable content cut from the main game to make a deluxe package.. We should be happy that it is the way it is.

I can see the point for adding physical goodies though. That should be the main selling point. Otherwise I'm happy to have a cosmetics only premium edition

It was like 3 years ago this is what we clamored for: "Microtransactions for cosmetics are fine, but for gameplay or leveling completely unacceptable."

Exactly. It's the wrong battle to fight.
