I picked up I think literally every DLC for CK2 a few months before CK3 was announced. It's was maybe $50. I think much less (although I already owned the base game and maybe a few DLCs). No one is expecting new players to purchase that at retail price. The sale price is the actual price for a new player. I don't think it actually really scares anyone off. If you want a city builder, there's only one option. You stick it on your wishlist for a sale and buy what you want.
