Company News Paradox Steam weekend sale

Tags: Paradox Interactive; Steam

This weekend, nearly every Paradox game will be 50% off on Steam. Paradox is also promising daily specials but has not elaborated.

The only good thing from their mistake of Steam exclusivity: their future games will become cheaper must faster than before, and same on their "Complete" Editions with all bugs ironed out.

Looking at CK2s store page, one can see pdox has truly managed to bring their DLC insanity to a whole new level. I fear the worst for EU4.

 

[Wise Emperor]

Sadly they started with sprites for EU III and Day One DLC with Victoria II, so it's empire level snowball effect.

 

[Sranchammer]

Is there a A.I. DLC?

 

[Cowboy Moment]

CK2 with all DLC except the Old Gods: 20 Euros.
The Old Gods: 15 Euros.
Nice try Paradox.

Waiting for the cloud.

CK2 with all DLC except the Old Gods: 20 Euros.
The Old Gods: 15 Euros.
Nice try Paradox.

That's kind of weak, I got CK2 with all DLC sans TOG for $10 from Amazon and TOG for $12 or so from GMG. GabeN is failing his followers here.

 

[Kattze]

I would have bought HoD, if only there's a sale in gamersgate as well.

$1.50 for the DLC for the DLC.

Every paradox games have an insane list of dlcs, and no way to get a package with everything . Say i want to get hearts of iron 3 complete, i type that in steam search engine theres no such thing, even the collection package is mising stuff , 2 units dlc and their finest hour , was it too simple to package it all together ?

They'll package it all together when they're absolutely sure there is no possibility of more DLC coming, most likely.

I was about to be angry because the Victoria collection costs less than buying all the Vicky2 DLCs, but now I see it doesn't have Heart of Darkness.

It looks like they did make a DLC pack for CK2. I wish they'd do the same for the rest of their games.

 

[Cassidy]

I haven't checked the prices because of having absolutely no interest but now that I read them here:

$35 for the really "complete" Crusader Kings II as of now being a weekend sale?

Paradox, Valve or both really believe their fanbase is full of easily milked retards.

Why not?

 

[Sranchammer]

Paradox fanbase went retard a long time ago

 

[Mortmal]

well if you want to play a new grand strategy game, wich options do you have ? Its paradox and endless dlcs, or its civ5, wich is worse and why ? discuss...

 

[hakuroshi]

I guess, I don't want to play a new grand strategy game.
But Paradox wins as long as it's still possible to not removing anything from inventory.

 

[IDtenT]

Paradox is the greatest publisher ever, you bunch of retards.

 

[titus]

Paradox is the greatest publisher ever, you bunch of retards.

True that!
Who else manages to sell you broken games and then make you pay for patches? O yeah, expansions. Stay tuned for next week's patch expansion.


FFS, they eventually manage to make decent games, but from that to "the greatest publisher ever"... it's a long way.

 

[Delterius]

but from that to "the greatest publisher ever"... it's a long way.

I agree, they probably won't ever get to Bethesda's level of exploiting free work from the modding masses. Not to mention Herve.

 

[Clockwork Knight]

"They're better than Bethesda" - was that meant as a compliment?

"Hello customer! Take a look at my wares. The craftsmanship might not be that great, but at least they're better than Honest John's snake oils"

 

[Delterius]

"They're better than Bethesda" - was that meant as a compliment?

Most certainly not, it takes a special level of cunning to be Bethesda.

 

[IDtenT]

If it's not Paradox then no buy.

 

[hakuroshi]

To be honest, Paradox made games I actually wanted to play, unlike many "great publishers" there. It often took a few years after release for them to be playable, and they all turned out less then I wanted them to be, but still were more then "good for what they are". Can't say I regret money I've spent on them till now.

I bought Crusader Kings II. First impressions: A lot of polish, gorgeous soundtrack. I'm damned if I have any idea what to do, though. Tutorial didn't make much sense.
