Welcome to the giveaway of Control Ultimate Edition. I hope you enjoy it.

Wow, thx!

Hi all.
Just a reminder - as I write in the description - that this is the Standard edition of Control, as provided in the Humble Monthly a little while back.

Ultimate shows up because it's the only version available for purchase on steam.

I also got this from Humble Choice in March and it does come up as "Ultimate Edition". I think everyone just got a free upgrade when they took the standard edition off Steam.

edit: No, I am wrong. It very much is just the Standard edition. Boo on Humble Bundle and Remedy, there doesn't seem to be any way of getting the DLC now without repurchasing the entire game.
edit edit: OH WOW! Even worse! It downloads the full thing, it's sitting right there, taking up many many GB of precious hard drive space, it's just not available.

An unfortunate giveaway since regardless of who wins if the user wants the expansion and extra content, he needs to buy this game anyway. So would have been better if you just gave the game to a friend.

My friends didn't want it.
Perhaps the person who wins should consider it a demo of sorts.

Yeah remedy and 505 really screwed their customers over, both ways.

-->If you selected the game for Steam, you have to buy it again because they took the DLCs off the Steam store and all other stores (or, you know, you can give more money to Humble because they are conveniently the ONLY store left that sells the DLCs as Steam keys)
-->If you selected the game for EPIC, you must be mad as hell because they gave it away for free like 2 months after that, and you still need to buy the DLCs anyway

In conclusion, guess which developer and which publisher got blacklisted by me (and probably many others) and won't be getting any of my money ever again, despite having some of their titles on wishlist in the past (not anymore)?

This was me. :-/

Incidentally, this is the same publisher responsible for Bloodstained, where backers were promised Linux & Mac versions of Ritual of the Night, and a DRM-free version of Curse of the Moon, but were let down on both counts. Can't say I'm super satisfied about having plunked down $175 (by far the most I've ever spent on a video game) on that particular crowdfunding campaign...
