DLC is the problem for PC gaming...
I miss the times when you'd purchase a game, bring it back to your console or PC, and just enjoy playing. Initially it was online verification, then small fixes, and now we often see people sell games that are nearly complete or charge us for only part of them.
You can still purchase the main game, but be cautious about the many versions available that add little new content.
Ubisoft is a clear example of poor DLC execution. CD Projekt Red shows the proper approach. I hadn’t realized there’s also a correct method for DLCs. My apologies for overlooking that. Yes, EA has updated its DLC policies, which is a positive change. Still, I’d prefer paying full price for a complete game rather than settling for a half-polished version at full cost. I get the value of DLCs for games like BF4—especially when they include map packs or similar perks. That way, players can upgrade weapons or other features without spending extra. In my past, you didn’t have the choice to pay to win; you had to rely on skill alone.
Yeah that's why i sold my PS4 and bought PS2 back. Now i can just play the freaking game i want. And i don't have to wait to download 5gb's day one patch.
Depends how it's done rather than just being all bad. Battlefield 4 is 2 years old and is still going strong thanks to dlc. Borderlands 2 dlc is also very good. If it lengthens the games life then fine, but dlc that is prepared even before a games release is total shit.
