100 BUCKS?!?! for an old game? seriously?!! does it include 1 kg real platinum???

Genius move there Techlands. You have a pricing structure which means I pay more for being an existing customer. With an offer like that on the table... all I can do is say 'Hell No!'.

If you value me as an existing customer so poorly, I guess I won't be buying any more dlc.

There are multiple ways you could have done this without making it feel like you are punishing people who have contributed to the financial success you have had with this project, but instead of taking one of the many high roads, you took the low one!

Weird that the Platinum Edition is purchasable on gog and Steam in Germany, the regular edition isn't.

I see a lot of complaints about an upgrade option... isn't this just a collection of everything that was already out?

Yes it is.

The question now is: if you already have the main game but passed on something like the Hellraid DLC for example will you then still be able to buy the missing stuff separately or is the only way now to get that missing stuff this new Platinum Edition? If it's the latter case then the price (even with a sale happening) is just a big middle finger towards everyone who has bought the game in the past and supported these devs.

Yep.

Not sure if there is or isn't anything new, but more importantly in any case it would be the best deal so far on everything that's already out.

Now I suppose it's a good deal for both those who don't and who do own the base game, but it's a significantly better deal for the former, which always feels unfair to some of the latter, me included.

The Platinum Edition has no exclusive stuff. You can still buy all the DLCs separately.

I know there's no new stuff in this version. My point was more if this new version would replace all the other store options we had before where you could buy all the stuff separately because that would suck big time for people who have already a good amount of what is included in the Platinum Edition. Good to know though that those other options haven't been removed. I hope things will stay this way.

Don't care it's all cosmetic microtransaction trash, and none of it is worth paying a single penny for.

The only result Techland has achieved is to put me completely off buying the sequel, as I refuse to support devs that sell cosmetics as overpriced microtransaction trash

Put cosmetic microtransactions in your products, and I don't buy your next product, I don't mind the Following expansion, but that was the ONLY single player story based expansion, and I have zero interest in any multi-player, or co-op content.

Eh I'll just wait until Dying Light 2 come out. I bet the price will drop like a rock.

So, what's next? A diamond encrusted edition for $120? A DLC bundle was all that was needed. Instead, they went the Ubisoft route of multiple editions. Why was this even released?

It's like we're stuck in a loop. GOG releases a special edition with no upgrade once again.

This is an extremely normal thing though. People are acting like collected editions years later is some unique offense.

Thanks! :D
