The problem with these games (like Stellaris, which is also on offer and I would recommend with the same warning) is that the base game lacks many interesting features, which you only get if you buy all the DLCs.

I've had a great time playing the Stellaris base game but stopped playing after I felt like I was being locked out of a bunch of new content in DLC. I've been keeping an eye out for a complete pack of the DLC but even on sale I'd need to pay way more than I paid for the base game.

That's true, sadly.

On my tablet I only bought the two large DLCs and not the leader packs and my city planning looked really bad when I realized that not all wonders are available without them.
