Ongoing steam sales and subscription issue.

[Malky]

Hello everyone, i still have a Stellaris subscription for all the DLC, but i'm decided to buy the full package as it's being on sale.

But i just ... can't. The store see me as owning the DLC i've subscribed for and i don't know what to do.

Anyone having this issue ?

Unfortunately you can't buy DLCs while having the sub active. You'll have to wait for it to end and then for the next sale.

Thanks :)

Paradox should fix this.

The game should go on sales next with STEAM Real-Time Strategy Fest 20 — 27 January.

What a wrought! So he has to not play his game once the sub expires (none of his save games will work with vanilla), for as long as some discount may or may not come up weeks or months after the sub expires. OR, keep paying the monthly sub in perpetuity? Great system you have here Paradox/Steam!
And the game is virtually unplayable with no DLC, so sucks to be you matey, sorry...

Well, you can buy the keys outside steam during sales (or maybe buy as gift on steam).
I think you should be able to activate third party keys even during the sub, it’s just steam that blocks you from buying stuff you already have access to (even if only renting).
