Why SoD didnt do this at launch? (Steam store main page)

in Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear


How much does it cost, this sort of promotion? Is it really too high for Beamdog? Could create a lot more visibility than did.

    That's a good question. There are probably some fairly good reasons it didn't happen, although it would have been cool.

    That is normally just for the big AAA games isn't it?

    Is Dark Souls III an AAA game? I didn't think the series had quite made it that far.

    It costs money. That's probably why...

    might be due to being a dlc.

    And that is owned by Microsoft. They have money.

    I want to say that all of us older, long-time BG fans who were interested in this probably all knew about it for months/years anyway and were counting down the release in anticipation, being that it is niche and probably wouldn't accommodate today's audience.

    SoD and BG1:Enhanced made the steam top sellers list on launch day anyway, but yeah I agree it still would have been nice to see it showcased regardless.
