As mentioned above, the current state is not so terrible. I certainly don't like it. There's no need for these tiers; the only reason they exist is so they can put candies in bigger bundles and get people to climb the stairway. Ubisoft is notorious for it in the video game industry. You could buy the base game. But you could buy the other edition that gives you a rebate on four undisclosed expansion to come. Now's the only time to get this deal. Also, if you spend 50$ more, you get all this extra content that could have, and should have been in the main game, but we've split it to make you spend more.
