Money's worth for the DLC vs state of the game
I'll be honest and say while the price is definitely very high, I'll probably still buy the DLC at its price rn because I play tzeentch kislev and especially Cathay a lot. And based on what I've read for the mechanics of the factions plus the LLs I know I'll play the shit out of these factions. And enjoy all the units. I know I'll get my money's worth.
However, I won't buy this DLC until I see what updates, bug fixes or crashes are brought. If a lot of bugs are fixed, and there are decent race updates for the 3 races, then I won't really have much to to stop me from buying. The state of the game is not worth me spending a lot of money on any DLC.
Second however, I would suggest to anyone who doesn't play very consistently at least 2 of these races or even all 3, don't bother to buy SoC anytime soon. I'm ok with the price point. For example, if thrones of decay comes out with a similar amount of content and mechanics at the same price, I won't really buy it. I have never played a Nurgle campaign. And barely play dwarves. I play empire a lot. And 25$ for a new empire campaign, LL, and mechanics with maybe the potential to play another new race campaign, not a chance. If i played all 3 religious and the content was seriously good, sure.
But I don't condone this price hike in general. Especially how the game is right now.
