I've had the opposite problem. Since 2018 anytime I think about trying a new game in my library I just play Rimworld instead!

Well I guess I know what I need to buy next time it is on sale.

The game doesn't go on sale very often because it's very fairly priced at $35 and I've gotten each DLC the day of release so idk how they do bundles. It may be a long wait if you're hoping for a deep sale as I've never seen it drop more than 25% below retail price.

You get a lot of the core experience from the base game+mods. So don't feel like you need to get DLC to start because there's a learning curve on the game anyway. The community endearingly calls your first 1000 hours in the game "the tutorial."

Good to know. Well, $35 isn't too much if it's that good. I'm not in a rush since I have a couple games I want to finish first.

They tend to do a bit off in the big sales. It's currently 20% off.
