So there's a few PC gamers on the Rome 2 Steam forum who seem to think they have somehow been denied more content because the game is being re-launched on the Mac. They [ludicrously) think that Creative Assemblly could have done more DLC for Rome 2 instead of doing this. With Feral doing the job obviously one has nothing to do with the other but they don't seem to understand this. They are also making the ridiculous claim that this port was done out of "pity”. I don't think companies like Feral and Creative Assembly would have existed as long as they have if that was the reason they have even bothered with allowing Mac versions of just about the entire series.

I know it's probably a waste of energy debating with individuals like this who seems to have nothing better to do with their time but this really irked me for some reason so I felt I had to attempt to educate them. It doesn't look like I've been successful which isn't really a surprise I suppose which is why I've very rarely engaged in conversations like this before.

I just can't understand the hate here. Can anyone explain this? Perhaps somebody more well spoken than myself can attempt to explain this to these individuals.

I think the gist of the issue is that the relaunch includes new content, and current owners who play on the PC are not seemingly going to get that new content.

The conversations seem to be centered around why the developer isn't providing that as a DLC for other owners of the game. Seems unfair
