Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
We’re rolling out the first batch of bundles with dynamic pricing, page 1 - Forum - GOG.com
Download the best games on Windows & Mac. A vast selection of titles, DRM-free, with free goodies, and lots of pure customer love.
Hello everyone!
We've just launched the first batch of bundles with fully functioning dynamic pricing. It's a feature many of you might recognize from other platforms, but for those who don't, here's how it works:
When purchasing a bundle, you only pay for the items you don't already own, making it easy to complete your collection without spending more than necessary.
We know this has been a long-requested feature, and that the lack of it has been frustrating for many of you. That's why we're super excited to finally start introducing it to the store, and we hope you're just as happy to see it live.
Now, what do we mean by "start introducing" and "first batch of bundles"?
Well, right now this dynamic pricing system is available for 24 bundles in the store (you'll find the full list in my comment below). We'll continue expanding this feature to more and more bundles – new and old – with the goal of eventually covering the vast majority (if not all) of them. You'll know a bundle has dynamic pricing from the information displayed under its price on the game page.
Note: If you already own all components of a dynamically priced bundle, you'll be able to "claim" that bundle in the store so it shows as owned.
You might also be wondering: What about various game editions that include base games + DLCs?
We completely agree that bringing dynamic pricing to those would be a huge improvement, for both you and us. It's something we're actively looking into, and we hope to expand the system in that direction. We can't promise an ETA just yet, but we're optimistic it'll happen sooner rather than later.
That's all for now! Give this new system a try, see how it works for you, and let us know what you think.
Thank you all for your support!
