Affordable Landscapes 2

Well you should remember. You’re basing your whole argument on something you’re not sure about? Either way, I think you’re missing the point that we’re not offering landscape materials. We’re offering 5 unique environments. It’s precisely their own choice. Breaking it down and selling items for very cheap is just burning ourselves early on. Customer appreciation is one thing, which we try to maintain a good support and update rate, burning the creator is something else. Sure updates and the content we add over time are free for those who’ve already bought it. We put AL1 out with 5 landscapes at $75. It makes sense to charge $25 more now that it contains 14 landscapes and 3 revisions. I mean it has to worth your time after all otherwise there’s no point to do anything for marketplace.

No I am absolutely sure about it, I just do not remember who in particular said it. If you sell them individually at a higher price, and packaged together less expensive, then you are not burning yourself. Take a look at ironbelly, they sell individually and then create packs, giving the buyer choice. You are burning buyers with these huge 100+ dollar prices we see on MP now for content.

If we were even selling an individual map and you bought it for it’s material only, you still have burned your money so I don’t see a point in this.

There is not a lot of value in a pre-made terrain without your own specifications, what you need to understand the materials is where the most value is. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Your argument there is invalid. WM2 Pro License: $249 + Geoglyph Pro License: $300 = $549 > $100-$150. That’s without taking into account the subscription costs we’re paying for textures. So nothing is overpriced.
You might have just confused this with a prop pack. Landscapes take so much more time and hard work if they’re done properly.

Depends on the quality of the props, doesn’t it? Properly done meshing, baking and texturing requires a very good workflow, with a fair bit of software and skill sets. I’m not talking about garbage made from basics and tossed through substance painter.

Anyway, I’m trying to make a point here for your benefit and buyers. I have seen people call these things a rip off, I still think there is value in them as long as you don’t start emulating “certain MP landscape creators that shall not be named” with the 100+ dollar packages of mutually exclusive environments.
