i'm sorry paradox can't scam $1 more out of me, i'm pirating their shit on principle
Seriously. Last thing I bought from was vic3 base game so i could mod it (fuck steam mods who don't upload to nexus or have a github somewhere or SOMETHING other then gatekeeping it behind steam workshop).
At least its moderately easy to pirate all the dlc on steam still. People out there justifying spending $500 on a game when we got multiple free "DLC" patches on games like stardew is kinda insane. And the DLCs have less content then the average free mod nowadays... People really need to just make open source versions of pdx games at this point. I think some people are doing it with vic2.
There’s a whole economy of paid mods as well. You could dump house downpayment money on Sims easily
There's something so satisfying about pirating that Sims 4 repack that just installs all the latest DLC, patches and other shit automatically.
You see this wall of dumb shit you never would have paid for that you're getting 100% free and it feels so good.
Do you mind sharing a link? That sounds convenient as hell. I've wanted to get Sims 4, but also getting all the DLC just seemed like a nightmare.
I've already got both of them though, I don't have sims 4, and sims 4 is much easier to mod.
i dumped so much money into stellaris DLCs after the 3 rework of the base game i just about had it, i paid more than enough and then some for a complete video game, i'm going to get a complete video game
that's the comedy of it all, until they get abandoned for the next game in the series, paradox games are never done, they're essentially in early access
