We are starting off with Dune: Imperium and then will work our way through them :)

After having spent so long playing Immortality (and Ix even more), it will be weird playing online without... Thanks for making a digital adaptation though, it will be great once it's complete!

The lack of expansions is a weird move as the entire online community play ix immo and rarely does someone play the base game. It's just dull without expansions. I hope IX is implemented as soon as possible. Then we can wait for a little for immo and uprising.

Usually you release the core game and then you asses your profits.
If the product sells then you add DLCs.
Of course they will lay out the foundation for future expansions but it'd be unwise to start with a much bigger investment without the certainty that the game will sell well.

Contrarily, many players who play with the expansions may be hesitant to purchase it until the expansions are released.

Yeah I don't think I will play the core game much without Ix. Ix elevates it from pretty good to great. I worry I will have a hard time getting people to play without it.

[Rick80]

I would like also the expansions

[epsi2lon]

Im a huge fan but i will not buy the game without ix and immo. There is no dune without expansions now. I hope you will get the expansions fast, then im in.

[Silent AI]

Yeah, I won't buy it till there is Rise of Ix. After that is implemented, I will spend A LOT of hours in it

[RoleplayeR]

Yeah, also want to add to the opinion that fast expansions are critical. There is no way any of our group will consider playing the base game only after playing with all the expansions...

[Spectral B4dger]

Well, first time players probably wouldn't think that way. I'd bet noone of you (unless played at an event or similar) bought the 2 expansions with core game without even trying it first and make sure you liked it.
In any case, you'll have to purchase the base game to play the DLCs so... why not just purchase it to make sure expansions will be added? If the core game sells poorly what incentive the devs have to invest time and money to develop also the DLCs?

[K_Dubbers]

I agree it will be much better when IX is introduced, but I will be excited to play the base game for a while.

[Hatchet]

Can we just be grateful we're getting a good digital version of Dune Imperium at all first before bashing it for not having expansions? There are a lot of people, myself included, who just cannot be bothered trudging through TTS to play a board game. Seeing an official digital app is a very welcome thing for us and will allow more people to play an awesome game.

Also, the base game is perfectly fine as is. Sure, it would be nice to see the expansions added in the future, but myself and many others will be more than happy to just be able to play DI online. The "expansions or bust" crowd is not the majority you think yourself to be.

[Nisse]

No need to purchase or play the core game without the expansions. Ix fundamentally fixes a flawed game, without it DI is bordering on mediocre.
