PARADOX WTFFF

This is how it starts.

"It" started in 2010 with Gamefly you nitwit

I generally buy them for five bucks for easy access to updates and the workshop, then pirate all the dlc

Unironically only retards and autists.

Games as subscription service is here and you helped make it happen Dab Forums

Are you retarded?
It's 9 years old game, with sequel already out

So, instead of buying it all for 200$, you can just pay 5$ month, play and move on

Delusional faggots itt seething at paradox being a pro-consumer company. I can't believe how anti-paradox shills to this day scream and cry over minor imperfections in otherwise very enjoyable and quality products like HOI4, CK3 and Imperator: Rome. The fact that anons like would consider piracy a legitimate method of playing these games is truly sickening, small, family-owned companies like Paradox need our financial support, and it really goes to show that Johan was right, you guys are just as devoid of morality as pedophiles. I mean, imagine going to the extent of pirating DLC for CK2, imagine actually going to the lengths of clicking on a mega link, downloading the compressed DLC folder, unzipping it and then copy/pasting its contents into steam\steamapps\common\Crusader King II. You pedos are truly morally repulsive

disgusting

It's not important how old the game or its expansions are, how much they cost, how much does a subscription cost, what is the quality of the game or its expansions. I never talked about that. I talked about the text being badly written. It starts with a promise of something super cool (which gets the reader excited) and then immediately tells you "it's a subscription service for our game/s, haha" (which disappoints the reader). The buildup is both too strong (it's SUPER cool) and too short (three words). It's followed by an extremely un-exciting premise. It's a fucking subscription. Even without all the bad associations with subscription services that already exist in games, it's not exciting. It's a subscription. At the very best that can be neutral (it's not). It's not super cool. It's not even cool.
Then there are concrete numbers which are too small (nothing even reaches 20, this is pathetic). You use numbers when you have hundreds or thousands of something, not tens. Nobody gets excited for tens, regardless of what do they get tens of. They should have went with abstract descriptors like "numerous" or "many".
At this point you're just not excited but then they hit you with "not having to weigh which items you would prefer to purchase". That sounds really bad because it brings attention to the fact that it removes choice and preference. That's not how you sell an option. You talk about convenience, about everything being within an arm's reach, but for the love of God you never suggest even in the slightest bit that "choice" or "prefer" gets diminished. You use those words if you give someone choices or preferences they never had, but if you remove the choice (or give the option to remove the choice) you don't use those words at all. This line is the single worst line from marketing point of view in the entire text.
1/2

2/2
And then they add that if you stop subscription you LOSE ALL the stuff that you had access to (exceptt free base game), which is of course obvious and reasonable but shouldn't be there because it mentions a loss. It should be in a separate FAQ page and not the announcement.

how do I use this

Lol I only buy the base Paradox games then pirate the DLC

>Decides to purchase the content instead of paying a sub

What's the problem again?

>What's the problem again?
you being retarded

interesting idea, but I'm curious how much it is.
I realistically think I would be okay paying $5 a month for as long as I played it, which would probably be a couple months at a time.
It still costs like fucking $60 to get everything on sale, considering I play like 2 months out of the year, could be fine.

If it's anything above that though? fuck that. I get ck3 basically free with extreme discounts from games pass.

Where does one find just the DLC for other games?

The game isn't even supported anymore. It won't get any new content.

This is a good take. You can still buy all the DLC individually. This is just so people don't have to pay 200 for a game they will play for two months tops, which means 10 bucks at most.

Learn to read nigger, I literally outlined it in the last sentence
