Origin sales?.. Or promotions?

Open

Really wanting to play through the mass effect trilogy but for that i would need to get the dlc packs for 2 and 3. But since i am short on cash for a few months i really can't pay the full price so i was hoping to see if there is any known sale around the corner? Or maybe some promotion for origin funs? I know there has been a lot for 1-3 certain games when buying gpu's and such in the passt but that would not help here hehe.

Any ideas? :)

Origin games are often on sale on a lot of websites (HB and Gamesplanet have regular Origin sales). DLCs however, are where they make their dough so you shouldn't hold your breath. I'm still waiting for any discount on the ME3 DLC pack and I've been watching it for a while

There was a 20% discount in January on both but let's just say that it wasn't exactly Xmas since they were still over 20 bucks each and the games are sold on sale for waaaay lower than that.

They only released 4 months ago, and repackagings now have a trend of being treated like new releases, so that's not unexpected.
Of course, EA being EA, they're more likely to give the DLCs away for free than put them up for a reasonable sale, so it's not like odds are high in the future, either.

unless I miss it I never saw mass effect 2 release 2010 and mass effect 3 release 2012 DLCs has never gone on sale. only the base game have been on sale but never the DLC. So by my count 8 years and counting with dlc being full price.

That is because there is a pack since a few months back on their sites. You used to need points to buy them but that has been changed.

Previously, they were based in Bioware points. Bioware points got sales, but they were minor, and Bioware Points themselves were an outright scam. The content was only released as proper DLC packs in mid-December 2017.
As I noted above, publishers have been considering repackagings as new releases for a while now, so you can presumably ignore the previous years of Bioware Point-based sales, and just consider the DLC Packs to have only just released, as far as sale determinations go. And, again, EA isn't big on sales to begin with, so even without that in mind, there still wouldn't be much hope.

They where released recently so the chances for a sale is kinda low so far. But expecting them to pop up soonish.
