Empire of Sin: The Hunt for Aurora - releasing next week

[Sietrin]

Wow, I can't believe this is actually happening

 

[Reapo]

OUR PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED THANK YOU LORD

 

[Justeer]

Truly positive news!

 

[Cassilda]

I'm really surprised that DLC will be coming out in the end.

 

[Miguelinileugim]

Belated april fools prank or early birthday present?

 

[KlausMaster]

Only had to wait 4 years!
Man, Paradox have been nothing but an embarassment since the pandemic.

 

[Rexillarius]

there will also be some base game bug fixes and updates coming your way.

My save with Al-Capone still stands, waiting for the bug fixes.

 

[Borgratz]

Well that's a surprise.
Super psyched to finally find out what the minimum required legal definition of a dlc is!

Have you played any other paradox games? Mainline paradox games get far better treatment than side ones... imperator rome excluded.

I'm inclined to go easy on them in this case. Romero Games openly said "F*** this s*** I'm out." and took off.

I can't imagine it's easy to find new devs when the ENTIRE DEVELOPMENT TEAM decides they don't wanna work anymore.

 

[Megas Stevros]

Romero have disgraced themselves forever in my eyes.

 

[Wyvern]

Strange that there's nothing on the Steam page about this.

 

[Enriador]

Strange that there's nothing on the Steam page about this.

Feels like an April's Fools. Next week launch after 4 years of silence... insane.

Couldn't be more glad that we are finally recieving this expansion we so deserve, but the question still lingers — where did Romero go? They can't just abandon the project and run off without saying a word, even for them they would have a chance of repairing their reputation by releasing a statement.
Quite humorous when the only things they have done since the last DLC is put DLC 2 off-sale, delist it, and quietly close off every alternative forum for EoS, while this new dev got their 4 year endeavor done in 8 months, having to completely fix all the spaghetti Romero left behind.

My save with Al-Capone still stands, waiting for the bug fixes.

if you stuck in the story and still have the save file and could send it to me, add me in discord (artyom.moonmana), send me the save file and we will fix the bug in the next patch (if it's not yet fixed in the patch which comes together with the DLC)

Apparently they did discuss it in the Empire of Sin discord some time ago.

They openly mocked and insulted anyone who still expected DLC 2 to happen. And today, not only is the Empire of Sin discord shut down, but mentioning it on the main Romero Games discord is an insta-ban. So... they openly do not care and are not even trying to salvage their reputation.

Don't quote me on any of this, though. To be honest, I've never been on any of the mentioned discords. This is all stuff I heard second-hand.

 

[Daerthe]

lol

 

[TheUnrestCure]

Heady times! Looking forward to trying the game out again.

 

[Blaeys]

Now we just have to hope this is a legitimate DLC and not just checking a box to justify preselling this four years ago.

The lack of promotion/early teaser/patch notes has me concerned, but I have reinstalled the game in anticipation of tomorrow. Here's hoping it's something actually worth the money and time we've spent on it.
