WebJunkie: So I was looking on todays sale and noticed Risen was for sale, on clicking and seeing the 'Buy Series' I noticed the price of £32.64 for all 3 games, except you're not just buying all 3 games, you're buying stuff already included in some of the other items for sale!!
They have 6 items in the series:
Risen - £1.39
Risen 2: Dark Waters Gold Edition - £4.19
Risen 2: Dark Waters - £2.79
Risen 3: Titan Lords - £7.59
Risen 3: Titan Lords - Upgrade To Complete - £4.09
Risen 3: Titan Lords Complete Edition - £12.59
Which adds up to £32.64
But, in reality, you're buying 3 items you don't need:
Risen 2: Dark Waters - £2.79 is included in the Gold Edition and Risen 3: Titan Lords - £7.59, Risen 3: Titan Lords - Upgrade To Complete - £4.09 are not needed as the Complete Edition contains these!
So you're actually paying £14.47 MORE than you should be paying!! You only need to buy the following:
Risen - £1.39
Risen 2: Dark Waters Gold Edition - £4.19
Risen 3: Titan Lords Complete Edition - £12.59
Total of £18.17 or £17.26 if you buy Risen 3 and the Upgraded instead of Complete!
I noticed this on Steam as well with the 'Add all DLC to Cart' option and finding you've added a Season Pass plus all the DLC already in the Season Pass too!! I find it a very sneaky practise and so you should all carefully check what you are buying if there is a 'Series' for sale!!
You should by now only see the actual games (Risen, Risen 2: Dark Waters, and Risen 3: Titan Lords) in the series. All of the other bits (Upgrades and Complete Editions) have been removed from the series. They have 6 items in the series:
Risen - £1.39
Risen 2: Dark Waters Gold Edition - £4.19
Risen 2: Dark Waters - £2.79
Risen 3: Titan Lords - £7.59
Risen 3: Titan Lords - Upgrade To Complete - £4.09
Risen 3: Titan Lords Complete Edition - £12.59
Which adds up to £32.64
