I bought this bundle and then had to get a refund. It appears it is not DRM free, and it seems it is Steam based.

I wrote to support asking if they had a direct Windows installer and they ended up refunding me since I had not downlaoded anything. I do not use Steam but I wanted the bundle, oh well, more for gog it seems.

Sachys: Cheers guys!
Sadly that video makes it look a little too multiplayer focused for me - not that it matters, I remembered shortly before finding your replies I can't purchase from humble these days as my bank wont allow me to pay via paypal or any of the other options.

Spinorial: Meh, not much of a loss, really. The lack of DLCs really sours the milk on this one, and I don't think Leviathan alone is worth it.
Aye - already got EU3 and Warlock anyways. The other games don't interest me. Really quite surprised they didnt bung the original Mount& Blade on there or summat instead of the rebundles and multiplayer focused games

Spinorial: Sorry, no idea. It never struck me as something I'd be particularly interested in. I'm still sinking SG points into the stray giveaway, though XD
SG points?

I think it is funny the total package (which does not include DLC) cost $125....

I have all but maybe 1-2 games from that bundle and I have spent less than $50 which includes all the DLC...heck I got EU IV for around 20 before release.

Anyone who falls for that price point considering how ofter Paradox games are on sale or even bundled together would be a fool.

Sachys: Anyone played Leviathan Warships? - it's the only thing that really grabs me - cant afford BTA anyways.

What were your thoughts on it?
Single Player is rather meh. The turn based thing is rather time consuming and I haven't found an option to make the animations move quicker.

I think a cooperative campaign might be fun. So if anyone is interested I'm still interested in multiplayer experience, though my multiplayer thread hasn't been necroed yet...

True it's absolutely ridiculous to make such a grand bundle but leaving DLC out. The Paradox sales aren't that important, 125$ for games without DLC is like buying 60 Porsches for the Price of 40 but without having tires.

keeveek: somebody bought CK2 and was playing the Byzantine empire, his favourite nation. But when the Legacy of Rome DLC came out, he can't play as Byzantine empire AT ALL, unless he buys an expansion.
Stop lying.

Vestin: It's an excellent co-op game... The bots sucked last time I played. You can join other people online, but playing with friends and voice communication is the way to go, IMO.
Thanks!

Excuse me? What he said is an outright lie. Paradox (which is a Swedish company, by the way, so I don't see what this has to do with nationalism) never locked out Byzantine Empire after the release of Legacy of Rome. They simply added features to Byzantine Empire, such as events and retinues, which are not available to people who do not have the DLC.

I'm willing to offer a fair deal here: if keeveek can prove what he claimed, I'll offer to gift him a $5.99 game from GOG. Yes, I'm that convinced by my European nationalism that his claim is a lie. Not just wrong, but an outright lie based on the way it was expressed.

Oh right, it's cool, for some reason I thought Paradox is a Finnish company. Carry on.

Would be the best sale in gaming history..if it was Gamersgate activations, or DRM free, What a failed opportunity.
Cute too, dangling that $125 carrot to raise the average.
