Take a long hard look at the DLC pricing 2k/Firaxis and put yourself in the shoes of the customer who bought the vanilla Civ 6 version. Deluxe players gained all 6 (up from 4) free DLC´s a couple months after release which many would have opted for if they knew it from start.
The amount of reviews on steam ONLY concerning DLC prices range from “mixed” to "overwhelming negative"; to the point of actually hurting player’s opinion of the DLC´s as well as your business reputation.
Personally I bought all Civ5 DLC´s and Civ5 expansions as soon as they were released. Sorry to say there´s no way I could even consider it currently with such prices for the amount you get. Those of us who actually love Civ6 would gladly upgrade to deluxe if there was an option.
I write this post is because I care deeply about the Civ franchise and Civ6 in particular which I think suffers too heavily of one sided criticism that could be fixed quite easily.
//I feel really sorry for the developers at Firaxis.
Not only are they being forced to prerelease games when they are nowhere finished, the DLC´s pricing model alone has turned many gamers against the company.
