I dono if you'v bought a game in the last 7 years, but after a time period, practically every game, big or small, is sold as a "pack".
This game, is 5 years old, and as many titles of this nature are sold as a "pack" at a price, usually £19 (some cases that price new), £49.99 is...
Well it doesn't really need explained.
It looks a good game but priced way over, very much like those Treyarch AAA titles also way too expensive.
This company has a stupid business model.
But let me ask you a question, when you go into the mall and see a nice tie or a suit coat...do you insult the staff when you discover the price?
I would assume you get thrown out on your ear more then you wish to mention if you did....
So lets be civil and cut the crap MmmKay? You cant afford it...I get that.
Having now played it all weekend I can see what the allure to this game is: Its move and combat system is very fluid, giving you immediate results as you move your units. That's an attractive feature for the scope of this title. There is also a ton of detail and history imbedded in the design and for the people who are interested in this level of exercise, and at whom the game is targetted, this is a lot of quality that justifies the price of the game. And the strategy involved is realistic and intense.
Face it, this isn't going to appeal to the mass market so designers can't rely on sales volume for compensation. I can tell you that the game is worth the price -- particularly the sale price -- but if you aren't a devotee of this genre or at least very interested in historical simulations like this then there isn't a price other than "fire sale" that will interest you. And even then you probably wouldn't care for the product enough to actually play it. Definitely a fine wine kind of experience.
I'm sorry I tabled my purchase of this title for the past five years given how I now see what this game actually offers compared to its competition. But we all have our prices, and I just found mine.
Yet again, WitE is NOT one of those 'type of games'. It's a completely different type of game.
It's quite simple, folks - the game is the same price (before the discount) that it's always been. Steam is just a new outlet. If you think it's too expensive, then don't buy it.
Then all of these its...100 bucks! I cant afford that genius title of eastern warfare that took years to assemble and required billions of man hours to research what rifle the 13 Finnish Milita used in 1944....yeah...I feel ya.
Edited price :P
yes, it's "special", it's the holy grail, it's a special seat in heaven, unlike anything you've ever seen...it's ALLLL that. How dare you compare it to anything in the whole wide world as there just isn't anything ...it's a genre all of it's own without comparison...yes folks, it's not a war game, it's not a 4x, it's not a simulation, it's not a rpg, it's a gift from an alien race that holds the secrets of the universe and only playable by those with an IQ of 229 and so far beyond all you gimped Steam war game players...you just have no clue...lmao
Overkill dude, embrace it and what it usually means.
Don't feed the Trolls....
Is it possible for an Moderator to lock the Thread, this kind of Discussion leads nowhere.
Gary Grigsby's War in the East embraces the whole campiagn on the Eastern Front, including the Balkans, and Central Europe. That's a period from 1941 to 1945 with numerous scenarios covering a number of campaigns. The game's really a board game that has been changed into computer software, with all its benefits, such as no dice and counter hassle, no CRT hassle (combat results table), no problems with a huge map, everything being automatically calculated, and so on and so forth...
Now, let's take a look at these board games by GMT ( http://www.gmtgames.com/c-16-east-front-series.aspx ):
1. Barbarossa: Army Group Center, 1941 (mind you - only a small fraction of the Eastern Front) = $65
2. Barbarossa: Army Group North, 1941 (again, only a small fraction of the Eastern Front) = $102
3. Barbarossa: Army Group South, 1941 (again, only a small fraction of the Eastern Front) = $89
4. Barbarossa: Crimea (a tiny fraction of the Eastern Front)= $79
5. Barbarossa: Kiev to Rostov (again, only a small fraction of the Eastern Front)= $85
6. Typhoon! (again, only a small fraction of the Eastern Front) = $75
TOTAL: that's $65+$102+$89+$79+$85+$75=$495 (that's roughly €443 or £318) - and it still doesn't cover all the cmpaigns that Gary Grigsby's War in the East offers...
Another good case in point is Total War by HMS/GRD ( http://hmsgrd.com/wordpress/?page_id=16 ): take a look at the price of Total War. That's $234... It's a remake of Fire in the East, and it only covers the period from... the summer of 1941 to the spring of 1942... - a lot less than Gary Grigsby's War in the East...
To conclude, taking the above into account, the price, whether it's €51 or €73, is really a bargain. Gary Grigsby's War in the East offers a lot more than all the above games taken together and it serves it in a computerised, automated, and a lot more comfortable and convenient form, for a much lower price... Of course, you need to like playing wargames to appreciate this...
