@IkariX it's a good thing IDGAF about your opinion then, lol
It may surprise you to know that other people have different experiences to your own. But I know that concept may be too far out of reach for you.

As for Nexus, I don't know why you ban people that have legitimate points relating to polls you create. None of what I said was out of line, but clearly you prefer sycophants like IkariX on the forum instead of customers who have legitimate criticism of your logistics (which you make us pay for).

Nexushub has the best customer service no doubt. I have had other retailers that don't care about restocking on sold out titles but yet nexushub helped get me townfall steelbooks and control resonant steelbooks even though they were sold out. No one cares about delivery fees as long as you get the physical game in good condition like I have, especially steelbooks which can be fragile.

@DarkWingDuck

I'm going to call [censored] on your post. I've been buying from Nexus since the AnimeWorx days from about 2008. I have literally never ever had bad customer service from NexusHub. So you are being disingenuous. I don't think you appreciate the great lengths they go to, to get these games for us. But enjoy your other retailers and their[censored] service.

MrOde very good point! I'd pay extra for express overnight shipping.

HaseoVII SAME regarding FF7Rebirth (best believe I preordered Revelation though )

I am such a huge fan of Nexus Hub - no one else in SA imports the niche titles - I used to need to get my stuff from Amazon Japan/US

My backlog is so big I don't care how late I get my orders lol haven't even played FF7 Rebirth or even Stellar Blade yet, but that's just me.

I'd actually go even further and say do standard free shipping for all orders above R1000 but allow an express shipping option/add on for those that want to pay extra. I would gladly pay extra to get whatever I ordered the day after I order it.

Shipping costs on games? What's that?

I'm not looking to start a bad thread about this, I was really just curious because I misclicked the tab on the left and stumbled upon the poll (I'd never clicked it before).

I am fiercely brand loyal to Nexus Hub and I don't care too much about not getting a game day-1. I know other names like BT and Koodoo ship earlier so you get it on release, but I'd never be "that" excited that I must play day-1, life happens
On the other hand, paying an extra R150 every time you order a commercially available title does add up, and I would not blame the average consumer for trying to save some money.

I know I'd feel less off about it if there was a price match, and free delivery at a certain threshold.

I mean if I can save money, why wouldn't I?

Are there circumstances where I would pay that extra without thinking twice about it, yes. In general there's little reason to do so.

That said, touching on Darkwing's point of eBucks, payment options feel like a lot bigger point than the R50 delivery. Lot of places offering rewards, pay later, etc. Those are big pull points for customers.

For niche titles it's okay. Problem is I play mainly bigger titles. Games are expensive enough as is. If I can save 50 bucks, use my ebucks (which some retailers allow) then I'm definitely going with another retailer.

Basically if I have to choose between paying delivery or not I'm going to go for not paying for delivery. On top of that, I find my Nexus orders are usually delayed. I don't think I've ever received a game on release day which is annoying when you're paying extra for delivery especially. And often you have to ask where it is which I don't think the customer should have to do, that's part of customer service.

How much would "free delivery for orders over R 1000" affect your decision to more purchases from Nexus Hub?

What a terrible review, I usually enjoy these but Joe hasn't got a clue what he is talking about and is blatantly lying here.

Anyway, found some new tech with Sonya, 41% meterless combo in the corner and some combo's leading into some 50/50 mixups with a low or overhead starter leading to another 25% combo and giving you corner position again if you end with the throw.

These can be done mid screen but j.4 needs too be replaced with j.1 and run cancel will need to be utilized.

Where was he lying? His review was pretty much similar to most outlets/reviewers...

He said he knows first hand that the coins were reduced in the patch so people would buy the krypt unlock dlc. This has been proven untrue so where is this first hand experience?

He then complains about Rain, Baraka and Sindel being in the game saying they have full movesets and are held back for dlc, again not true, anyone paying attention would see none of these characters have variations, x-rays, fatalities or brutalities. In addition to that they only have their MK9 movesets, so they are pretty much sprite rips.

Joe is showing his true colors lately, first the crap with his Nintendo video then the[censored] he said to viewers on his stream.

Well with the krypt thing, according to him he had a review copy. Review copies are finished builds of the game, but also not the same game released on store shelves on day 1 (Not anymore anyway since Day 1 patching became a thing)

As for the rest of the stuff...DLC characters etc...that's his and his fans business to defend...I'm really tired of gaming personalities and companies and their trash.

Thanks for clearing that up DP. I also disagree with him regarding the PC port, its a 4/10 IMO...its terrible, and even post patch their are issues (Screen tearing, Online issues, game not wanting to start at all) its badly optomised and I hope they cancel the old gen ports cause High Voltage is incompetent...

It was confirmed on neogaf that the coin thing isn't true.

Have only heard bad things about the PC version.

Agree with you on this, its very easy to see while playing through story mode!
Got to agree with Joe though, on the Goro "dlc"

I dont know whats up with Joe lately. His last few reviews have been

Went to a friends place to play this.

Really good lots of fun. I was also surprised that the 3 Japanese guys who were there all knew how to play the game, and knew the characters even.

Jason variations

Unstoppable:
- Whatever meter Jason has is converted into HEALTH upon death at the end of 'round'.
- Gains access to temporary HEALING buff.
- Gains access to temporary DAMAGE buff.

Slasher:
- Gains access to classic MACHETE weapon. Yes, it can be thrown. Hits mid, decent speed.
- Gains access to unique Slasher specific Kombos.
- Gains access to temporary ARMOR buff. When ARMOR is up Jason can NOT jump, & when it runs out he's stunned briefly & can be hit.

- Gains access to AUTO DEBUFF. Screen turns red, opponents INPUTS get REVERSED, they also can't DASH or RUN.
- Gains access to the same ARMOR buff as (Slasher) along with pro's & con's.

Did my first run combo last night! Yeah! hahaha... this game is all about putting a lot of time into it! It only gets better with more... Sub-Zero, who i never really got into in previous games, has become one of my top three (with Mileena and Jacqui), mostly because his Brutalities are fairly easy, but look so awesome!!! His Grand Master one is badass! The Brutlities happen pretty quickly, so i'm finding the more i do them, the more detail i see and the more enjoyable they get! Such an awesome game mechanic! Doing some sick combos into brutalities is just too cool!

Loving this game!
