Dear Bethesda;
( Let me preface this post by saying I have read the article saying Bethesda is "looking" at the CE shortage & "might" do something about it. )
Please, please, please don't make the same mistake as Bungie.
I followed Destiny, as many did, from it's first announcement at E3. I was excited by it & wanted to get the Ghost edition. Bungie made very few & many people lost out on getting them. I was one of those people. It left a bad taste in my mouth with Bungie from the start. Their bait & switch tactic on selling 10% of the game they promissed drove me away from them FOREVER.
I have played Fallout since the original game in the 90's. I still have my original copies. I have gone to Toronto fan expo several times dressed in home made Fallout costumes with my old home made pipboy. I have played all the Fallout games through to the ends several times. I am a big, big, big fan.
I couldn't get a preorder for the PIPBOY EDITION at best buy because they didn't do them in stores only online, same as Amazon. I don't have or want a credit card. Eb Games in Canada still hasn't come up on their computer yet & may never as it is sold out everywhere & I' being told there simply is no stock.
I was planning on buying a next gen system to play Fallout 4 on. Now I'm debating upgrading & playing at all.
Please make sure you have enough Pipboy editions for everyone who wants one. Fallout 4 looks great but I'm tired of companies under producing a product to cause a shortage frenzy. Business is supply & demand. There is obviously a high demand. To not meet it is fiscal idiocy. Don't make the same mistakes Bungie did that lost them so may loyal customers.
