worth the BTA - not sure on top tier though. Can anyone confirm if the Escalation additional content is a separate key to the main Escalation game?

Yes, they are - it's 4 separate keys for the base game and each piece of DLC. I went for it because the DLC was on sale recently and I almost bought it and now glad I didn't! Also wanted the Galactic Civilizations III expansion but I have pretty much everything else. Offworld Trading Company and Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion are both great.

I was trying to find that out last night. Apparently they've 'merged' the Ashes of the Singularity games. If you have the original then you already have Escalation. Although check in case I misunderstood.

Thanks, though it was the "
Guantlet DLC
Overlord Scenario Pack
Turtle Wars DLC
"
that I was referring to, just I had the main Escalation game from some previous bundle. Reddragon confirmed though that they are all separate keys anyway....but can't justify going for full tier - maybe if it was just $10 but not 15 as have Escalation and Offword already

Yeah looks good - I’m glad it’s star docking and not space docking (please don’t google that second one if you’re at work

I used to use their programme to override the Windows 8 metro bar in favour of the start menu. Never knew they made games!

Initially looks like a good bundle...then you check reviews and find it's all kind of "meh..." *shrug*

Look above the $1 tier. :smile:
I'd be going top-tier if I didn't already have Offworld Trading Company and Ashes of the Singularity, but can't justify that just for the GalCiv expansion,

Ok, Ok...your relentless positivity crushes me....granted there are two pretty decent top tier games there but as a whole bundle, for me at least, this is relatively underwhelming. :neutral_face:

At the lowest tier, the Metacritic ratings seem good, but Steam seems to be critical. Tier 2 might be optimal.
Personally, I don't like bundles where you have to buy a lot of additional DLCs to get the complete game (Offworld Trading Company, Galactic Civilizations III, Sins of a Solar Empire), so I pass on this one.
