Devs: On Bundles (Like the Captain Picard Bundle)

[Caernavon]

Hey, devs? Just a suggestion....it'd be nice if you had a proportional discount for the bundles that accounts for items in the bundle that are already owned. I'd love to buy the Picard bundle, but I already have most of the items in the bundle, and as a purchaser I'm somewhat reluctant to lay out full-price Zen for stuff that I already have. Failing that, if the game checked to see if you owned the items already and gave you some sort of bonus (like dilithium) for the items you already own, that would also be helpful.

I say that not as a critique, but as a suggestion that might achieve sales that aren't currently happening due to the aforementioned problem.

And even if they did… the greed is real.

I fully appreciate that keeping a game as old as this running takes quite a bit of money, plus introducing new content, but some of those asking prices are really beyond the pale… especially when the server quality and engine performance are also decidedly on the low end.

^^This.

Go to the Discord channel if you want your message to be seen by the devs.

That's my point. I'm reluctant to fork over money for a bundle I mostly already own, but if they changed how the bundle was sold, it would be a no-brainer for me. I'd buy it.

The irony is that Steam discounts partially complete bundles in the Steam store, but Cryptic didn't put any on the store page.
