WTF TA...

[Grumpy Old Dude]

Lightbringer edition only avail if you dont already own Solasta...

game and ALL DLC + Supporter pack is 35 USD and change

but if you already own the game, the DLC + supporter pack is $36 and change

shouldnt have to pay more for the DLC alone, than someone else pays for the game PLUS the DLC...just because you already bought the game.

Supporter pack isn't on sale at the moment. The others are.

[starkmaddness]

Blame the Supporter Pack, which is basically a $10 forced tip.

I own the game and was going to buy the bundle (Steam doesn't charge for what you already own). But when I saw the 'Supporter Pack' shoved in the bundle, I said Nope. And I am not going to buy the three DLCs individually. Just going to remove the DLC from my Wishlist now.

Make a bundle with the game and DLC. Not supporters pack. Not coffee tips. Not Soundtracks. The Game and content for the game. Simple concept. Many companies use this crappy tactic and so I just buy a different game and give a different company my money.

Honestly the only one I have is Lost Valley and it's good enough to play most of the player made content out there, unless we get like 75% off DLC's I don't think I'll be touching anything else for the game

I really wouldn't support a commercial developer.

But you can get this game with all of its DLCs for ~10€ and you can even avoid the supporter pack thingy.

[DiceWrangler]

Note that Solasta started as a Kickstarter and is Tactical Adventures' first game so putting out a "tip jar" is a perfectly reasonable -- and always optional -- way to help support them. They are not Paradox. Getting a discount on a tip somewhat defeats the purpose.

[Berserkr]

But the tip jar isn't optional it's forced in both bundles

[Grumpy Old Dude]

tip jar..sht jar.....

point is..if you supported them early, you pay MORE for the same content as someone who is coming late to the dinner table, and that aint a smart business model...

those with the game, should at WORST, have the option to buy the same package as someone without the game, and just not reDL the game.

[Avior Osis]

If you click the bundle info.......

[Grumpy Old Dude]

yes? Continue? If you already own Solasta, the DLC + tip jar are more money then someone who doesnt own Solasta pays for the game, the same DLC and the same tip jar you are buying.

Was there something relevant, you wanted to add?

[Cartesian Duelist]

If you already own Solasta on Steam, why would you buy the Lightbringer bundle and not the Complete your collection bundle?

[Grumpy Old Dude]

Because the Lightbringer Bundle is a lower price than the Complete your Collection Bundle. Which is my entire point with the OP...that.makes.no.sense.

That's... interesting. When I look at the store page, the Lightbringer bundle is $36 and the Complete your collection bundle is $29. Only DLC I have is Lost Valley, but that might account for it I guess. The difference between the two is the cost of the Lost Valley DLC.

[Grumpy Old Dude]

I cant see the price now on the complete your collection, because I bought each DLC to skip the tip jar. Came out to like $30 but avoided the 9.99 tip jar charge.

Just wrong, to charge the existing customer more for the DLC, than you are charging a new customer for the game AND the DLC

[pascal.difolco]

$35 for the game + all DLCs is good enough I didn't mind *also* getting the Supported Pack !

[Grumpy Old Dude]

For the umpteenth time...people seem either deliberately dense, or I dont know how to speak in English...

IF you do not have the game at all: The price for the game + all DLC + supporter pack''is LESS than

the price for the DLC + Supporter pack if you already have the game

is that sufficiently clear yet? You get penalized, for having bought the game already.
