Introducing Wargame Design Studios

[wiggum]

In few words, when they have a title 1 year in the catalog they release a discount of around 20% the problem is they do discounts only in november-december but last times they introduce titles under 1 year here with smaller discounts 10-15%, over 1 year is possible see bigger discounts and even over 50% discounts.

Yes, as i said thats true for Slitherine, but then again, whats your point ?

My point here is that Matrix-Slitherine ALLWAYS had discounts on their politic of prices maybe not common and arrive late for newer titles BUT have them, instad Tiller NEVER release a discount the only thing he do is remove the physical part and sell the games cheaper than HPS... but not cheaper compared with NWS if you have in consideration shipment (now Tiller games cost the same tham physical copies from NWS, a CD+CDbox).

Again, whats your point ?

Releasing PzB on Steam will NOT financially hurt Tiller or WDS !
Their usual customer base will buy the game anyway at release + instead of a few sales in later months they will sell vastly more because much more people will discover the game on Steam.
+ If they decide to do a -10% sale or something after a year this will get the game back to the frontpage of the worlds biggest gaming website...i mean, how much more advertisement can you possible imagine ?

And yes, now PzB have few competition in Steam but in future Matrix is going to release the reworked version of Campaigns (like they did with Middle east) and in 3-4 titles, ONLY 3-4 you can have all WWII covered and in a game with 3D tools to edit EVERTHING.

And whats your point again ?
How would this affect sales of PzB on in a negative way ?
People are as likely to buy the reworked version of Campaigns at Steam no matter if PzB is there or not.

@wiggum
Do you really think I waste my time an explain you the trouble that can come with steam when your ignoring even simple facts.
Your just totally ignorant about this platform and that is surely nothing that WDS will do just because you think steam is the solution to every problem that Tiller games ever had.
Get lost Bavarian!

We are all still waiting for those "facts"...

Seriously...
Steam is the worlds biggest platform for gaming and maybe already the biggest platform for pc wargames...so why would you not put your new game their too ?

Steam is ranked #178 in website popularity (calculated using number of daily visitors) worldwide !
Tillers shop site is #754373
So basically you show the game to 4000 times more people !

Put it up their too, never do a single discount and you will still generate many additional sales !
People like you who think Steam is the devil can still get it on Tillers site.
I have the feeling you just cant stand the thought that new, younger players, basically HoI or Total War guys (the guys you call "wannabes") would discover and play the game because that would in your mind degrade the experience of playing real hardcore sh*t thats only to be played by real "grognards".
