There is a form to fill out and it will take a couple of months…but its a free Paradox game. ---

Dang. This may be the first time I didn’t actually get screwed over by paying in Euros on Steam (Otherwise it’s usually about 1:1 conversion from dollars, i.e. 15% Steam tax.). I suppose I’ll have a free copy of Stellaris, which I was tempted to buy on the Steam sale just recently. ---

> [@madsircool](#): > > It was on sale last week but only 10% off. DLC seems to be how Paradox really make their money. Yeah, I was thinking more like 50%. Then again, apparently I won’t get the game until late September, so maybe there’ll be a better offer by then. ---
