The DLC sale prices are ridiculous...
I should preface this by informing that I own Grim Dawn. Having said that....
The publisher would have made more money during this sale if the DLCs were also 80% off instead of 30%. Most people just buying Grim Dawn would have grabbed them all but DLCs priced more than 2 times the game's price is insane. Even the soundtrack costs more than the game.
Most probably got exhausted and tired of the game just trying to figure out which DLC to get.

Aforementioned insanity:

All prices at 30% off:

Grim Dawn - Crucible Mode DLC - $4.19

Grim Dawn - Ashes of Malmouth Expansion - $12.59

Grim Dawn - Forgotten Gods Expansion - $11.19

Grim Dawn - Steam Loyalist Items Pack 2 - $6.29

Grim Dawn Soundtrack - $8.39

I swear every time there's a sale there's also a complete idiot like you who can't handle the fact that a dlc is momentarily more expensive than a highly discounted base game.

Got all the DLC at discounted prices, you just have toi be patient.
Base game 4 years old

Ashes 2.5 years

FG 1 year

So you expect newer releases to be discounted as much as the original. :steamfacepalm:

Such a piss poor Premise. The "Game" is technically under 30 dollars including CONTENT DLC. You do not need Steam Loyalist or the OST...

And here we see yet another person who needs to learn to budget and/or doesn't understand that usually the older the game/DLC is, the cheaper it is sold for in sales.

It will never cease to amaze me the idiots out there that exist that cry just because the BASE game (which is 4 years old) is getting a bigger discount than the expansions/dlc (most of which are newer).

If anything the base game being 80% off gets NEW people in the door and possibly MORE inclined to purchase the expansions since they save a big chunk of money on the base game. It makes perfect sense that the newer items won't receive as large of a discount as the oldest item in the lineup. This is Market 101 material. You act like you were born yesterday or something.

I see nothing wrong with this and everything wrong with distorted and warped mentalities such as the OP displays along with a clear inability to logic reasonably and zero understanding of how the market works.

If anything it's pretty damned awesome of Crate to be willing to FREQUENTLY discount their baby 80% off in pretty much every sale these days. 5 bucks for a measly $25 game they STILL are updating to this day, and that's the base game too that receives just as much updates as the expansions - except for expansion related material and new features.

Get over yourself already. I see you're from Texas and here in the good ol' United States you can make $25 at minimum wage in about 2 and a half hours at the register at McDonalds. I don't even want to hear it and considering that you were dogging on GD in the Shadows: Awakening forum I don't even know why you are acting like you're upset.

Medea already said it is 2.5 years old, with the base game being 4 years old, learn to read…

Also, it is not just a matter of how old something is, but of how well it still sells without a discount and GD apparently does sell well enough still at full price to not warrant steeper discounts

But he said it more than 1,5 years ago so learn to read yourself.
Ashes was released autumn 2017 so 4 years.
In any case most projects will go on sale with like -67% at least in 2 years since release.
About it sells well, i'm sure it does, but for example i doubt Red Dead Redemption 2 sells bad, and it is -50%... I can add two bucks (literally) and buy it instead of Grim dawn + dlcs. It was just for example, i own RDR2.
