At its best, paid DLC adds meaningful new content we happily fork over actual money to play. At its worst, paid DLC is bizarre nickel-and-diming, cheap repackaging of old material, or a premium nude patch intended to discourage second-hand sales. Behold seven egregious instances of downloadable content we can't quite believe they charged for.

@@DarkQueenHelba wait was that the actual reason behind it? I never played the game (the genre isn't my cup of tea) but a bunch of my friends played it and complained about the publisher getting greedy forcing the devs to hide the full game behind a paywall. Was it almost like a completely new game with hours of game play or was it a few hours added in to give a conclusion to the game since the sequel was canceled?

@CeliriaRose 8 месяцев назад

@@emanuelmartinez7267 I know this comment is old but for anyone who might see this the dlc was the second type of scenario.

To it’s credit it was well done and I’d say was worth the money and at least personally I am willing to cut the devs some slack given the circumstances since at least it meant we got the conclusion rather than the series just ending without that content ever seeing the light of day.

@POTUSJimmyCarter 2 года назад

Also, on the topic of the Saboteur, the reason the nudity is locked behind a paywall is a ratings thing. The game was originally intended to have it in vanilla, but the various video game rating/censorship organizations were quite unhappy with that idea. So they sort of exploited a loophole which allows DLC content to be rated independently of its core game, which is why you'll occasionally see games nowadays that have blood and gore effects as an external, downloadable thing on the online store rather than being a toggle switch in the options menu like most games. That way they don't have to make any alterations to the core game files depending on regional censorship, they can just not make that external file pack available to certain markets.

@quinnmarchese6313 Год назад

not at all saying your wrong, just genuinely curious as to what games you've seen lock blood and gore behind a DLC. i can sorta see it maybe working for like Fallout 3 and its drug names or something but ive never come across a game that makes you download the violence lol. ive only ever seen the menu toggle like in CoD or in the case of really old PC games, a toggle in the install window.

@@cyber_xiii3786 100%. If publishers don't want to be reasonable, gray market it is. Dawn of War game was listed at like $50 on Steam when I bought it, which is fucking absurd for a game released almost two decades ago. I got it for like $7 on one of those sites. (I technically even got it for free lmao, because my bank auto-blocked the charge after they already sent the key, and nobody responded to my email telling them what had happened and to try the charge again since I'd cleared it with my bank.)

@quinnmarchese6313 Год назад

funny you mention CoD (and Activision/Blizzard by extension), as they are the actual worst for this. most other publishers are at least slightly more reasonable but they charge like 40 bucks for games that are 10 plus years old and easily found at a local used shop for less than 5. for example, i found a near mint steelbook of CoD MW2 for PS3 with all the manuals and such included for the exact same price as they STILL charge for that game new on steam (20 bucks) not to mention the fact that to complete MW2 on steam with all its map packs, youd be spending 50 USD, just 10 dollars less than it was BRAND FUCKING NEW in 2009.

Number 5 kinda reminds me of how, in the latest Tales of games, you can just buy all the things you'd normally pick from the "New Game + shop" (a menu where you spend points for your NG+, said points being awarded depending on your accomplishments in the walkthrough you just finished, for anyone not knowing). Somehow it kinda pisses me off to see that because you can just throw 20€ to the store and basically kill any and all insentive to replay a good JRPG multiple times over the next months/years...

@immortalfrieza 2 года назад

@@MrSniperfox29 Agreed. It shouldn't take 12 expansion packs to get all the content the game will offer, especially for the things that were in the previous game and it's expansions. I understand if they can't add in EVERYTHING from the previous game and it's expansion packs but I would at least expect a sprinkling of content from all the previous game's expansion packs in the base game with the rest of the expansion packs content being readded with 2 or 3 expansions at the most. Then add new stuff from there. Aside from the lack of the open world I saw zero reason to get the Sims 4 at all after having Sims 3 and most of it's expansions already. Sims 4 was a massive downgrade in gameplay even before the lack of the previous game's content is considered. Having to rebuy all the expansion content was just the final nail in the coffin.
