Day 1 Crow DLC
Cut content, really? I'm disappointed.

Agreed. This is really bad form and leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

sadface indeed

What a b-llshit move for 2020. You're gonna make me lose interest entirely in your game if you act like a greedy corporation.

Stop ruining gaming.

Why do you think that?

^ Well they spent time making content, cut it out, then made it paid DLC. What else is there to say? At least pre-orders are doing it a year before launch, making us hope its still yet to be made.

remember when soul calibur 6 came out, and the Nacmo sold Tira as Day 1 DLC, and the entire fanbase lost thier collective Sh**t?
Day 1 dlc is akin to cut content, if it released same time as the game, then there's no reason it couldn't be IN the game.
Vanity stuff, costumes, things of that nature don't count. BUt this is actually cut content.
adding insult to injury, the discount they advertised the game with isn't here.

So uh yeah, nobody that wants the game is buying it until this gets stragihtened out


seems liek this is all pretty bad for gaming as a whole. ( at least when it comes to developer transparency )

For real, that ♥♥♥♥ is lame. I've got nothing against DLC in general but if something's ready for release then it should be part of the base package. I was debating buying the game on steam but with this and the apparent lack of beta discount people are reporting, I'm just going to try it out on gamepass

I want the game. And I'm buying it once the discount issue is resolved. They said in the discord a few minutes ago that they were straightening it out.

But to the reason as to why I still want the game is pretty much because I understand what it is I want. My way of thinking and my restraint is different from most people it seems. I'm simply not buying the DLC because, bad practice or not, it's not necessary for me to enjoy the game. It's optional even in this instance. Just like I didn't get Tira in SC6. I was sold on Geralt and Character Creation. Pretty sure even if I were a fan of Tira, which I'm absolutely not, I would've been fine and just not bought the DLC.

Heck if Tekken 7 had Roger, which I'm absolutely a fan of, as day 1 DLC I still wouldn't have bought it and probably would've waited for a deal/sale at best. But I would've still understood Tekken 7 was one of the best fighting games out there.

But you're right about developer transparency. But I can't act like I know what goes into DLC at all. Personally I feel more comfortable about DLC after a game is released, rather than on the day a game is launched. Unless it's cosmetic. Then I don't really care.

One of the achievements is locked behind DLC. Literally impossible to get 100% completion without DLC. :steamsad:

This is a really bad move.

"Hey, want a complete game with all enemies, levels and weapons? Buy the DLC!"

"But, when this content is ready at launch, why is it not in the game?"

"Because then we could not sell you the DLC. Also: If you want all achievements: not without the DLC. Go buy it. We release the rest we cut from the game tomorrow and the day after"

As i recall there is something like a week to a month clear time on things you want to publish or update on some consoles. So if the game is releasing today for consoles too, but the game was already finalized and its too late to make a change for those releases. I could understand why we have this day one dlc, but even then i'm not a fan. Just gotta look n' see if the consoles have this day one dlc too or if it comes to them a bit later.

So the DLC was released before the game? ;D
