I never disputed they where different. I believe you are using the wrong words to convey your point. Any feature within the game IS content as its CONTAINED within the game, hence the definition. Where in the definition of feature does it state temporary? Where was it stated during advertising or on the box, that these portions of the games content where only temporary features and would be removed? What differentiates them from all the other features in the game. Where was it stated prior to purchase which features stay and which go?

They weren't removed and they are not temporary. They are certain aspects that are going to be regularly changed. They are still there just not featured without the DLC now.

How was difficulty selection not removed. I have ttk and its still not there til you hit a light lvl ive not achieved yet (so cant comment on) If its not challenging its not a game. I dont disagree with a lot of your points above. Like vendors (not that they've ever sold anything I wanted imo) But to say they haven't removed content that was there at point of purchase and advertised as such is a lie.
