Earnest take:
Every single one of those paid DLCs came with some kind of Free DLC with it that is not shown in the shop and is just baked into the game. That includes free lords, units, casters, etc.
The DLC that you don't buy is still available to the AI, so you at least fight new units

However, the sheer amount of it just goes to show what happens when a game has ~10 years of DLC support from TWWH1 to TWWH3. It makes the page look extremely ugly and if you're autistic about wanting all of the content (even stuff you're not gonna play) like me then it is expensive. I'm not defending it because it is literally like $230 in DLC if you want to buy it all. My recommendation to you, anon, is just to play the base game with the FLC and based upon what looks fun or cool just pick up a few packs. If you face some enemy race and they have a ton of cool units maybe grab their pack for like $4 or whatever and then don't buy Assius Assbringer of the Assclan because he is ass.

Just use creamapi retard

>>748891793
It depends what races you're really interested in.

For Empire? Eslepth is good and fun.
Chaos Dwarves are considered the best DLC they've made with one of the most interesting rosters and mechanics.
I PERSONALLY do not like the Chaos Demon factions. I think you might be better off getting Chaos Warriors. Archaeon, the main lord of that pack, just got a rework that allows you to become the end game crisis and basically totally reworked his factions.

A few more to keep an eye on:
Ikkit Claw if you wanna be a gay rat with machine guns and nukes
The Warden & The Paunch if you wanna be elf batman (he is whatever) or a fat ugly bastard goblin (he is fun)


Truthfully though, I don't even know what the race selection is like if you just play TWWH3 now with all the free shit they added.

do i look like i care about 20 bucks? i might as well pirated all of it if i worried about it
>>748892000
thanks nonny you seem to enjoy the game a lot
i hope i get into it as well!
>>
>>748892363
Yeah I got like 600 hours across the whole TWWH trilogy combined. I've had a lot of fun but I also think it is kind of intimidating for a new person to get into because the first thing you see is $200 in DLC for races you've never even played or heard about. Just shitty psychology for a lot of people.
>>
>>748892363
>do i look like i care about 20 bucks?
You'll need a lot more than that if you want the full experience. You'll need to buy at least 3 more DLCs and TWW1 to get the full Empire experience. Like 5 DLCs to get the full Chaos experience.
>i might as well pirated all of it
As far as I know TWW3 hasn't been cracked.

600 hours is rookie numbers you gotta pump those up

I actually wanna play the newest DLCs but I decided to wait a bit for mod updates/hotfixes to roll out.
>>
>>748892960
You can also run it on Linux, but it's really much easier just to buy it and just use Creamapi. With Smokeapi or its alternatives it's literally just a matter of dropping a couple of files into the game folder.

>>748891370
all this content is already in the game files, don't allow them to make you pay for lines of text

yea im gonna do that because i learned that you need not just the dlc of 3 but also the ones from 2 and 1 and that's a bit much
>>
>>748891370
put some cream on it nigga
>>
>>748893406
It's cool because not every game adds old DLCs to a new game and even updates them on top of that. High Elves from the base TWW2 are honestly some of the most fun lords right now.
But yeah, there's no reason not to use cream unless you have some moral qualms about it.
>>
>>748891370

you could have checked that BEFORE buying the game , its your fault, no pity at all for you and your stupidity
>>
It's expensive because you joined late. Buying a new dlc for 7-10 dollars every 6 months or so was more than enough and it usually came with a free update. You're also looking at nearly 10 years of content since the first game came out in 2016 and WH1-3 is a mega game where all content is compiled into each other.

I'm not buying any game that does DLC spam.
Make a fucking sequel or one giant update, anything else is just trying to milk the customer.
>>
>>748895840
Total Warhammer is the one and only game I believe to be justified in its DLC spam outside of autismo games.

I'm not going to pay for it but it makes sense for what they're trying to do.
>>
>>748895840
>Make a fucking sequel or one giant update
That's literally TWW.
>>
>>748891370
Just pirate it.
>>
>>748891370
It's called the loss leader strategy. It's somewhat risky in that people may just buy the cheap product and none of the overpriced shit but it's a tried and true method that is pervasive throughout all of commerce and not just restricted to DLC for video games like retarded faggots think.
>>
>>748895840
The only reason it has so many DLCs is that it literally lets you use DLCs and factions from all three games if you own them. They also make significant free updates to them
>>
NGL, I use CreamAPI, but I only play like 4 races despite having 1500 hours and starting with Warhammer 3. 1k+ hours are on Bretonnia alone, a Free race.
>>
>>748891370
>why is this allowed?
because grand strategy fags are the most retarded people in this hobby and they keep buying everything
>>
>>748891370
You won't believe this, but it actually also shows you the price with all DLC right below the price of the base game

retarded take
Games not being arbitrarily murdered nowadays before their true potential can be achieved is objectively superior. This is not even up to a debate
Take a look even at other, older Warhammer game - Dawn of War
>Make first game with 4 races, then in expansions add Guard, Deldar, Bolter Bitches, Necrons and Tau
>Instead of expanding it, kill it and make useless sequel
>Reinvent the wheel again by pointlessly remaking SM, Orks and Eldar from scratch, doing work which was already done for no reason at all, with only Nids being new
>Nids are now only stuck in that other game, unplayable in first
>Retread everything adding IG and Chaos which was missing
>Kill game again, back to basic again, two games are not complete by now
>Revive it again
>Again waste time, effort, resources redoing Orks, Marines and Eldar
>Kill game again
>Now again revive it
RETARDED GARBAGE
Same thing is true for Total War too. Medieval 2 bugs could be fixed and mechanics expanded, content added. Hordes which were cut out, brought back. HRE could get fleshed out with unique mechanics better representing it's system. World expanded. Instead they shat out utterly worthless (yes) expansion. With utterly worthless (yes) 4 minicampaigns. And then killed game, unfulfilling it's true potential.

>b-but dlcs cost money too
No shit It's a nonissue either way
Either you are not a poorfag and you can afford a kebab once a half year
Or you can buy all of them on a sale if kebab is too expensive for you
Or you can pirate them for free even

It literally doesn't matter how you get them. Outcome is a net positive especially compared to older days with multiple redundant games.
