I noticed mine was sent to UK from Netherlands (while it should go to Germany) I notified steam support, and aside from telling me they know of the issue, they let me choose a free game as compensation

Netherlands is the location of the warehouse, so that is expected. But it seems a whole batch was misrouted from there to the UK and then back to the warehouse, delaying everything by a week. Mine was shipped on the 15th and hasn't arrived yet.

I feel sorry for the wait and uncertainty; its the worst (not literally off course). Lot of people report in forums that they did not get it. At least you got a free game of choice. For that it was probably a nice and not bad at all. In fact, I would have traded the wait for a compensation, lol. So enjoy the game.

Tbh, same. I mostly reached out to support, because I was unsure if the package was getting lost in the wrong country. The delay doesn't matter much to me, I waited for a new controller since first playing on a steam deck, a week more is nothing.
