Paradox is anti-consumer. Do not support this publisher or developer. Instead of fixing existing bugs, Paradox is releasing a completely separate but nearly identical fixed version of the game with all DLCs. They are effectively charging for bug fixes and then removing the original buggy version from the Steam Store.

You want to make me buy the game a second time for an update? How is this even allowed?

Fun at first, but they really messed up with some of the expansions, that are way too expensive and then went ahead and completely abandoned the game. Now a few years later, they announced a remaster of this game with 2 reworked DLCs for 40€. Owners of this game will have to pay 20€ for it. Ridiculous.

DO NOT BUY! This game is fun but bugs grow more and more persistent as you play, if you have bought and installed DLC this becomes even more evident, painfully so really. Rather than fix these issues for players, so they can enjoy the game and DLC they purchased, Paradox Interactive knows you'd much rather pay $20 for the remaster; i.e. a $20 patch that fixes the game to a hopefully working state, a game and DLC you've ALREADY PAID FOR! TL;DR: - You buy semi-buggy game. - You buy DLC for game, and it becomes practically unplayable due to bugs. - Dev. abandons game and DLC in extremely buggy state. - Dev. offers to remove bugs for you if you buy $20 remaster.

Don't buy this game, Dev has abandoned it and is selling the same game with a new name and they are including all the DLC for this game with the new game, so if you bought all that DLC they thank you for your donation to their trust fund. I expect them to abandon the new game in a few years same as this one.

I love when publishers/devs relaunch the same game and give all the dlcs for free, when I paid 100+ for all the dlcs already, and they only give a 20$ discount. :steamthumbsup: Thanks paradox... Don't buy this if you want to get Surviving mars, wait for the relaunch, or just don't get it, I can't recommend a studio that will do this to it's community

"Relaunched" is a paid patch for fixing stuff that should be fixed for free.

Good game, but [b]DON'T BUY due to NEWER REMAKE [/b]of the 2018 version. You will WASTE MONEY for INFERIOR version instead of getting far SUPEROIR one contains all DLCs and new content (Surviving Mars: Relaunched). ======================================================================= [b] WHAT IT IS? WHY THIS HAD MIXED REVIEWS?[/b] It's a good simcity like game where you manage and maintain one of the first colony on Mars. It has charm and calm moment, and the game can turns into a scenario where you hold on to the last resources to keep your colony survive and thrive. Perfect balance that hooked me up and I have many GOOD and also BAD moments with this game. Long answer: I had a bittersweet relationship with this game. This game was first original developed by Haemimont, later contract expired so they moved on to other projects. Paradox was being a dirty cheap and hired amateur team (Abstraction) to develop new DLCs, leading to massive bugs that BREAKS THE GAME. I had boycotted th...

The much needed fix is sold for 20 euros.

not supporting a remaster if they still have not fixed the bugs with the first version
