I know right! What an awful company for being the first to pioneer such a ridiculous thing called DLC. Ass holes! This is inhumane!!

  • But they specifically said they don't want it to feel like DLC. They want it to feel like an expansion, but by the looks of it, it's DLC. And even less for us xb people out there. $20? No thanks

  • Expansions are DLC... They advertised it as two expansions and told us how much it would cost. They even included it FOR FREE in every edition of the game except the base (standard) no-frills edition.

  • It wasn't free. You had to pay 90 for the limited edition.

    No, it was free. The limited edition included a fancy box, special book, a ghost skin, emblem and ship, and for ordering that I got the season pass for free. FREE. Same was true of the Ghost Edition. Yet another case of someone not paying any attention to what they were buying.

  • Dude it's was $90-100 I'm not sure but it was between those prices. They pretty much just said "hey pay $30-40 more dollars which is how much the expansion cost to get a special book and tin which shouldn't cost extra" they had the consumer just buy the expansion pretty much on top of the $60 game

  • No sparky. At the time the expansion pass was included for pre-ordering the limited ($90) and ghost editions ($150). That was the added incentive to buy those editions, to get the extras they included [b]and[/b] have the $35 pass thrown in FOR FREE. They've since decided to include the expansion pass in both of those editions anyway now that you can't pre-order the game anymore. Even if you look at the way they're packaged today, you're paying $30 more for the limited edition and you get the display box, metal case, special book and post cards (which have codes for more in game stuff on them), a ghost skin, an emblem, a ship, AND the expansion pass for the next two DLC's... all for a mere $30. The added content for limited editions is standard practice, and they almost always cost at least $90. You must live under a rock. Even if you didn't want all the other in game stuff, you would have saved yourself $5 on the expansion pass or $10 buying each DLC separately, just from having been a smart enough consumer to buy the limited edition. The pricing of the expansions was available the entire time, so there's really no excuse.

  • The game they released didn't feel like a game either - just Arcitecture for filling their wallets at our expense.

  • I don't care what you want to call it. All it is doing for me is expanding my already purchased game. Call it what you will, for me it's a fun way to spend my time. I'm not complaining. If it was $10 would you all quit bitching and crying?
