No DLC packs included in Steam fall sale?

[kaspergm]

Anybody else disappointed?

 

[UWHabs]

Yep. I was definitely expecting the older ones to be on sale. I guess we have to wait for Christmas. Really weird too, because buying all the DLC in Canada would cost 41.94, but the DD version is only 52.49.

 

[Archon_Wing]

Very. I bought EU 4 and some AOE2 DLCs which were on sale.

Yep. Winter sale better have a good deal. Fortunately, it will probably be a month before I feel like I really need new content after giving in and paying full price for DLC 6. (I haven't bought any of the others yet.)

Same here. Khmer was a given for me - I knew I would buy that as soon as it came out. I know it's good for those who bought the deluxe edition that they got the two extra DLCs included, but it does leave those of us who had enough foresight to predict that the offered deal was a poor one, and hence stuck with the standard edition, a bit out in the cold. I expected - correctly - that the 4 promised DLCs would amount to only a bit more than the 20€ surplus cost, and that likelyhood was for one of them to include content that was low priority for me (which indeed was the case, there's not much in the Viking DLC to merit full price) - yet I would make a fool of myself to buy all the DLCs at full cost now. So I'm waiting for a discount, but I do feel I've been waiting long enough by now.

I purchased the Deluxe version yesterday, after using my brother's copy for awhile now. I am glad I waited until it went on sale now. I think deluxe is worth the $40 US price tag with all the DLCs, which I think are pretty stellar (I could do without Poland, but I've enjoyed the rest).

I do agree that the cost for each DLC is a bit high for standard version users though. The Vikings pack has a few good CSs and NWs, but not for the same cost as a standalone DLC civ. I would say each DLC is about 30% higher than it needs to be, but of course, profit.

Oh wow, so they actually put the deluxe edition on 50 % sale, but not a single one of the individual DLCs? That actually seems like a crappy move to me.

This is annoying. I refuse to buy the overpriced DLC unless there is a sale. I had hoped to get them all this week.

Part of my intrest in the dlcs if being able to open people's saves. But what about the viking pack? I don't need that too to open a save from someone that has every dlc.

But that is my main problem with these dlc things, makes it hard to share save files

 

[Magma_Dragoon]

It's hard to justify $40 for some glitter on this game when there are entires games at that price I might enjoy much more. Like Endless Space 2. I was kinda surprised War of the Chosen was 25% off considering how new it is.

Well, Civ VI is only $29.99 now in the Steam Autumn sale, so if you have friends who don't have VI already, and the Digital Deluxe Civ VI with all the DLC combined it's $39.99, so now might be a good time (unless they want to wait until Christmas in the hopes of a slightly better price).

You can get the individual DLC at a cheaper price later most likely, I would think.

 

[j51]

Yup, this is a load. I deliberately didn't buy the deluxe because Australia, really? I guess I just shoulda bit the bullet and then turned 'Straya off.

Steam Midweek Madness once again gives 50% on Civ VI (30 Euro) and Civ VI Deluxe (40 Euro).
The Expansion Civ VI "Rise and Fall" is announced for 30 Euro.

The DLCs sum up to 38 Euro (about the same as Civ VI Deluxe) and are not on sale (as usual). Also there is no season pass or upgrade to Deluxe available.
