It's on sale now for 75% less also now you can play skirmish and army painter offline in dow 2 if you meant that game.

Yes I have seen that. I already have it on steam but I do think its insane what they want to charge normally for it and they should be called out for it.

Totally agree. I don't care if they do 80% off sales, the base price is disgusting as are the practices from these companies (i mean publishers like Sega and their marketing practices ofc)

Sega is killing their studios milking this way and forcing them to do things like the MOBA DOW3.

-Relic is actually a very sad joke. Sega fired off a good part of the studio a month after their released COH3 (in early access) but previously, they destroyed the veteran community of DOW releasing that DOW3 thin which was the first disaster (at the very first game the studio made for Sega...)

-They are killing Amplitude even faster than they did it with Relic. The good reputation they builded up since Endless Space 1 is now gone and their last 2 games are a faillure. They tried to recover from Humankind disastert quickly developing and selling a new Endless Dungeon version, but this has also been a failure and it's a shadow of the OG game. It seems, also, that their designers are no longer at the company because Humankind has so many flaws at level design that it's strange coming from the same people who made Endless Space and Legends. The new Endless Dungeon is more casual and "streamlined" than the OG and fans from the first game don't like the second one. They tried to push the co-op online way as many modern studios do for their sequels in a way that remembers me what happened from DOW2 to DOW3 (coincidence or "suggestions" from the publisher)

-Creative Aseembly is suffering their worst crisis ever and it's comfronted with a big part of their own veteran community. Their secondary projects to keep earning money had been big fails, and not only the "Saga" series but now also the main Total Wat games (like Pharaoh, actually played on Steam by about 400 players a mohth after its release...)

Meanwhile, apart from the laid offs, Sega has set up the 69,99 dollar/euro price as base for their games, Denuvo everywhere and forever, forcing piles and piles of DLCs from all their studios (DLCs that had also seen a price increase after already being overpriced for their content) as a response for losing money.

Well, not only they will continue losing money with these iconic studios forcing them to do mediocre low-cost projects or big budget projects with very restrictive impositions, but they will end up firing off more developers or even closing a studio or 2 one of these days. Good management, Sega, yeah :P
