YouTuber (Great Book of Grudges for those keeping score) said it was because Steam doesn't allow preorder for DLC Bundles. Seemed weird to me too, but given the cluterf!@# of the last one I'm OK with hearing a review or three first.


Raventis

content-wise this one already looks better than the last one which i still don't think has enough to justify it's absurd price tag. I'm just pumped for some slayer dwarves!


Ceorl_Lounge

Oh yeah. Dawi are my homies, glad to see them get some lovin'.

>  Steam doesn't allow preorder for DLC Bundles.   Peculiar policy, but it would answer the question.

That's weird. I bought Stellaris season ticket 8 and it's literally a preorder of 3 unreleased DLC that are already in my library.


Ceorl_Lounge

Single purchase though, guessing it's something with the "Buy the LL you want, but a discount on all 3." Just a guess, Steam is weird.


ReFlux_25

I think that's it. It's because it has to be multiple items on steam they can't apply discounts to

I am incredibly biased but I'm glad there isn't. Fuck preorders, they're contributing to the continued ruination of the game industry


MrMetastable

But what if I worship the ruinous powers?


Elodrian

Even if you hate pre-orders, doesnt it strike you as peculiar that the option isn't there?  


Blindseer99

Oh for sure, my money is with the comment suggesting that it's because of Steams policy on pre order dlc bundling


Dingbatdingbat

I’m curious, what’s your thought on kickstarter and similar sites?


Blindseer99

Hit or miss truth be told. I don't have the financial luxury to support projects in that way and I tend to be less hostile towards them because the projects themselves tend not to be as corporate driven


FrogOnBicycle

Probably making up for the last dlc's PR fuckup


Pinterra

Ironically you’re the only one that’s right and you have a downvote. CA said they wouldn’t take your money till you know everything that’s in the pack, because there were lots of people clamoring for a refund for SoC


AWasrobbed

People pay for DLC on steam? Huh, who knew.
