Well, in the case of Battlefield (3 or 4) you get the full game and ALL the DLC for 100€. In the case of CoH2 on the other hand you have to pay over 200€ for the game and the DLC already released. If Relic happens to make more DLC, you'll have to pay even more.
people really need to stop using this lame argument. is anyone really going to buy every skin and faceplate? if you really want to, go ahead, but thats entirely on you. the majority of you dont even have any interest in ToW, so again, why include that in your number other than to make the price of the DLC sound bigger for your argument?
most of the premium commanders arent even that good. i see most players have 4-5 favorite commanders per faction which they use over and over. atleast a few of those are typically free ones as well. so for two factions youll spend maybe $20 to get all the commanders you want. even then, thats a choice and you dont need premium commanders to win games.
dont bring up elite troops and industry. we all know theyre going to be nerfed
