Game News Tyranny gets New Game+ patch and Event Pack DLC, Bastard's Wound expansion coming later this year

[Iznaliu]

That trailer is impressively boring.

I think it is designed to leave people wanting more.

 

[BilboBaggins]

You guys are crying about $6? I mean it is one less Unicorn Frappuccino® for the week, but don't most of you pirate your games anyway?

 

[Archibald]

Nobody is really comparing DLC's price to coffee, but to other available products in same market. For 7$ you can get another game while this DLC doesn't really give you any new content unless you replay whole game and see some bits and pieces here and there, at least as far as I understand whats in the DLC.

 

[Daedalos]

No amount of polish will make a turd look like a birthday cake.

 

[aratuk]

I like this game pretty well. It was too easy after the beginning (on the hardest difficulty), but the gameplay & story are still interesting. Easy decision to pay $7 to support development in this vein. Does anyone know if maybe they've fixed the cakewalk problem the hard difficulty has?

I'll wait til it comes on sale for -$2

 

[Sacred82]

At 60% off, I guess it's time to bite.

 

[Zeriel]

Why?

Because it is a good game. With at least 3 replays worth of replayability. And now it is getting more content.

Do you really have 1.8 million parrots? Where did you get so many parrots?

 

[MicoSelva]

Shit, Paradox wants $7 for content that should have been in the game in the first place! Who could have expected that?

 

[l3loodAngel]

Historically, base game expansions are more common than "sequel expansions". Thrones of Bhaal and Masks of the Betrayer are the exception to the rule. It's interesting how many people didn't know they disliked normal expansions until PoE had one.

By normal expansion you mean shitty half-assed DLC. That costs nothing to make, changes nothing, adds nothing and is a blatant cash grab. In other words POE did nothing new it was done by Bio, Beth and other pioneer companies to grab cash long since Obsidian thought of it.

[Forest Dweller]

Haven't played Tyranny yet, so best bet seems to be to wait for the GotY edition with everything.

Wish I'd done that with Pillars of Eternity.

 

[Excidium II]

Wish I'd done that with Pillars of Eternity.

But PoE didn't get one.

 

[Chaotic_Heretic]

But PoE didn't get one.

And good riddance at that.

More like it was an OK game, and it would be really wasteful to not reuse the same assets for some additional money.

You really have to pay attention to the conversations in order to unlock hidden quests.

*goes to the coffee shop where they also sell Tyranny DLC and expansions*

*sees a 6 dollar DLC for Tyranny, and a 6 dollar Unicorn Frappuccino*

Hmmmmm....

*checks wallets, only has 6 dollars*

Hmmm...

I'll have one Unicorn Frappuccino please.

I don't remember having the expansion campaign shoved in the middle of the base campaign before playing Gothic 2 NOTR.

Ultima 7's Forge of Virtue and part 2's Silver Seed? Every TES expansion in existence?

Oh yeah Bethesda games.

Well there's this: http://store.steampowered.com/sub/107937/

And also that German boxed edition: https://www.amazon.de/Paradox-1014953-Pillars-Eternity-Game/dp/B019I9TMSO

That's just a bundle, I'm talking a re-release with all DLC around same price or less than base game used to be. Also love Paradox new pricing policy, that costs 80 dollars for me.

Lucky you, it's $100 for me. They should make a bundle without the pointless Royal Edition upgrade, that might have a decent price.

Assuming they stay true to form there should be 3-4 more "actually finish the game" patches (which cost monies). Then a weabo patch of some kind, then a couple "ruin the game patches" and then they will announce Tranny 2.

I was going to say "Obsidian wouldn't do that", but Paradox will likely do it themselves.

 

[Junmarko]

haha they want like 6 bucks for extra map encounters

This is why you don't let Paradox publish your products. Look at how fragmented their own games are, it's a joke.

DLC for Crusader Kings II...
