@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?

Last year was a bumper year for releases and included games that we waited almost 10 years to be able to play them!

This year has some exciting stuff too and seeing as the year has just kicked off, what are your most anticipated games of 2017?

For me, in order:

1. Mass Effect Andromeda
2. Red Dead Redemption 2
3. Horizon Zero Dawn
4. Days Gone
5. Detroit
6. Nier Automata
7. Ghost Recon Wildlands (I rather enjoyed The Division and this title seems to have all the right Co-op stuff going on)

And possibly in 2017:

Spiderman (PS4)
God Of War

For me Its pretty much Vampyr & DQIX on 3DS.
I am cautious of ME:Andromeda the stuff we have seen so far just doesn't intrigue me like I thought it would. RDR2 is also intriguing, but at the same time I need to see more before I board that hype train.

Other than that I'll be waiting for more info on Hardware, especially the GFX battle between nVidia and AMD, VR improvements this year and finally Scorpio.

Early in the year - Resident Evil 7 and Halo Wars 2 (the first was one of the better RTS games on console and worked well with the controller).

I'm also keeping an eye on Mass Effect Andromeda and hoping doesn't go the way of DA:I, the best character stories and relationships, all buried under a ton of bland filler content. Horizon Zero Dawn is another title I'll wait for reviews on.

For games without a solid release date -

Prey looks amazing and hopefully blends an interesting story with horror, stealth and puzzles, some of my favourite genres.
I'm waiting to see more on Vampyr but I really enjoyed Dontnod's previous games (even if they were two entirely different genres).
Red Dead Redemption 2, so long as there's still has a great story and characters, and not just a platform for another GTA-online experience.
Outlast 2 should provide a great horror fix seeing as Alien Isolation 2 seems unlikely.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild looks great and I'm hoping Nintendo release the Switch at a logical price point.

Firstly if R* says RDR2 is coming out this year, then it will be released in 2018 (I hope I am wrong).

Looking forward to the glut of WH40K games Space Hulk, Inquisitor and Deathwatch.

Looking really, really forward to Shadow Warrior 2 and Ghost Recon Wildlands.

I also have reservations about ME Andromeda but mostly with the seemingly boring narrative but will still get the N7 version day one in case it's the best game ever (and in the case of N7 has some essential backstory disguised as DLC ).

Flame in the Flood, Cuphead, Rime, Syberia 3 (finally).

Like to see more of Vampyr and Prey.

Telltale's Guardians of the Galaxy will be awesome.

UC4 Lost Legacy will be great.

Not really interested in any of the other AAA games announced so far.
