Physical release with Printed manual? When?

[Lazy sweeper]

I would buy Old World Physical release in a Heartbeat for 29 or 39 Eur.
Be it on DVD or SD card. It just needs to have the complete game, standalone installer, and
printed instructions.
How many people would buy it here???
How many millions copy would it sell?

Option n.4 typo, should read:
Yes - Physical SD - Printed Manual - other fancy stuff

PS: Other fancy stuff may include

Figurines
Genealogy maps
A Map editor software
A family members special editors software
Unlimited support for life.
etc

A digital version of the Manual...

And a Lamborghini, delivered to my house, please, when?

Just jokin, i think these days are over, unfortunately.

I'd rather have it on floppies. How many do we need?

A physical manual would become a collectible real quick given how much they update the game.

One floppy should be enough in theory.

The important is that at least there is a Vanilla edition, they can make all the changes they want after, but at least something is saved for the records...

In 1998 I read Baldur's Gate manual many times and came back to it any time I had a question. This would be, for me, the purpose of a printed manual. The pedia integrated within the game replaces that as it is always up-to-date. Kudos to MG for always keeping it updated and easily accessible at all times. The complexity of the game is possible thanks to this.
