My guess is that Steam policy prevents a game from being sale if they change the price of the product.

It should be somewhere around Winter Sale, rather than Autumn Sale I think if they even want to sale that. Devs changed price for AOE2DE not so long ago.

This. There's a 30 days cooldown after price changes, so AoE 2 will be on Sale during Winter again

I pray that Winter Sale may include AOE2 base game and DLCs (or extend to other titles if possible).

Having Autumn Sale 50% for DLCs and Winter Sale for AOE2DE "base game" effectively look like a mess of marketing.

They price-hiked base game , in past we get free DLC and price of base game stayed at 5$ value (Aoe2HD >> Aoe2 DE)

and DLC bundle is not worth because stupid skin DLC inflating price even higher , cant recommend it to friends anymore, used to be good value for money....

now DLC cost 2x-3x more

it used to be 3.75$ or even 2.5$ for DLC after while,

and they cut on content and value, past DLCs have coop campaign what was really good

So if u dont care about stupid sterile monotonous multiplayer like me and many others , you could at least enjoy coop missions

we just got Dawn of the Dukes AND Dynasties of India for FREE thanks to the generous Devs!
I personally wouldnt have minded if these DLCs had instead been sold at 75% off so $2.50 each, as the only reason why I had not bought them before was because at one point, Lords of the West DLC had been 75% off which I purchased for $2.50 (and thought I would complete it before next sale and by that time I would purchase the others for 75% off) but they stopped the 75% discounts on DLCs and only left it at 66%, so $2.99, and then recently only at 50%, so $4.99.

Well, every few weeks, Darko visits the AoE 2 hub to basically rant about the game, whether it makes sense or not.
