Bloodlines 2 developers try to justify the game's DLC clans, but it's not very convincing: 'We have been expanding it from where we originally planned to land' (www.pcgamer.com)

Go look at other Paradox games and their DLC prices.

... Paradox games are why sites like G2A exist, they are notorious for requiring you to buy $200 of DLC to actually play the modern version of the game, they just develop the core game assuming you will also have all the other DLC, and then wow big surprise, the core game on its own is basically an unbalanced, lackluster mess, 3 years on.
