Deluxe edition all the way - how could you say no to this (in)famous piece of gaming history?!

The post below is the latest post from the developer of Descent Underground about the IG bundle. Oh dear! The developer, please stop talking, it makes things even worse! Getting information from Wiki pages, mistaking the date of the bundle... I almost lost faith in their game. What a mess...

"This is from their wiki page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indie_Gala

'Just like in Humble Bundle, buyers can set the revenue split between the developers, charities and organizers.'

Ours has a 30% rev split with charities, as I said on the last page - we are not making any money on this - we did this because it was a good deed - it is discouraging to read all this stuff on here - I mean why the heck would we release it so cheaply, right after a big Winter sale?

For the last time - we were contacted about doing the bundle for charity, we agreed - thought it was for later in the month - (our mistake) and it was for this week.

Or, maybe we are just super EVIL devs who want to give away our work...BWAHAHAHAHAHA.

;)"

Yeah. Professionals...
1. They didn't read the contract/conditions - no charity
2. They didn't know Indie Gala in the first place or checked the website - how can they complain about the lack of visibility or claim that there is a slider for the revenue split?
3. They complain about their "partner" publicly - This will definitely encourage other companies to work with them...

What a mess...

am I actually reading that right? I don't have a steam account but for that am almost tempted...

Havent seen a similar price for Rage in just about forever ....:)..

Thanks for taking the time to reply, but I knew that already. What I don't know is what all these extra DLCs actually add to the game, whether they're worth paying extra dollars for, and if so why. The GOTY version is as cheap as 3 EUR something on Gamesplanet right now, while the GOTY version costs 8 EUR something on Steam during sales. And I already have the German version, I'm mainly considering the purchase for the original language and the two story DLCs. Do I miss out on something great if I ignore the rest of the DLCs? Do they make the game more enjoyable or just add stuff you don't really need?

Shivering Isles is worth $5 by itself. It's really good. Knights of the Nine is OK. The rest of the DLC are take or leave.

Actually Mehrunes Razor wasnt bad - and had some fleshing out to some other quests in the game (from Knights of the Nine?!).

and the hideouts weren't bad either - but not worth money.

Yeah. It's the not-worth-money part that gets me. I enjoyed Mehrune's Razor and The Orrery. Knights didn't do it for me, but it at least had some meat on it's bones. But Shivering Isles is a bona fide Expansion!

Dunno, I found Knights quite interesting - but then it was the first quest I began to follow, and one of the last I finished, so little bits of it were scattered through everything else.

Shivering isles I loved - but that played like a standalone in many ways.

Anyways, before spoilers happen, I think we can agree, Leroux need to get the game, before he gets Wabbajack'd! O_____o

Yup

Yeah, I will get it at some point, and Knights and Shivering Isles will be included but I'm still unsure about the rest. Sucks that you can't buy them separately. Sounds like the Razor would be worth an extra euro or two but not five ...

any way the Oblivion Deluxe is far too expensive on gamesplanet now, It was like was €8.50 on GamersGate during this winter sale, so I'd hold out a bit longer.

And this game needs serious modding to be enjoyable today.

New deal from IndieGamestand is Mondrian - Abstraction in Beauty (DRM-Free/Steam, Windows). BTA for the soundtrack.
