DLC items are all gettable in-game
Please someone actually read this and understand its content.

ALL DLC microtransaction items are gettable in-game, says so in the description of each one. You just have to play. None of them are game breaking or overly necessary at ANY point in the game, and NONE are pay-to-win items. Yes this includes the character editor item, it's a one-time use consumable whether you buy it or get it in-game.

And for what it's worth my pawn is a lady healer, support and offense spells and current gear.


Yeah at least early game RC doesn't seem easily farmed. Sometimes you find it in chests. You can get small amounts from activating those rift portals. But it's relatively rare if your having no luck with anyone hiring your pawns. Thing is it barely matters since it's mostly only used for hiring overleveled pawns. There are some unique cosmetics you can buy with it.

Look up the word "gratuity" and reread your post. If you don't understand after that I can't help you.

Why the hell do I need to pay $70 plus extra just so they can make the in-game items a chore to obtain?

You can't even START A NEW GAME.

Give me a break, Capcom!

I don't care whether or not you buy the game, I care about the anticonsumer bandwagon filling the reviews and discussions. We don't care that you refunded the game and are going to wait for a sale. We don't care that you don't like MTXs, they aren't hidden, everyone already knows about them. You know people like to use those to actually discuss and review the game, right?

except the items being sold are not hard to get, for how useful they are they seem well spread out, if i bought them it would just essentially be cheating and ruin the fun of the game. also there is no pay to win in a singleplayer game, you would just be ruining the experience for yourself, ignore the MTX and enjoy the game.

The point of people is not that these items are unobtainable or otherwise.

It's that a 70 dollar game with performance issues at launch shouldn't feature them regardless.

Capcom has been doing this for almost a decade at this point, and it has literally never mattered before lmfao. It's incredibly stupid but it makes zero difference to the actual game.

No option to make a new game is the breaking point

MTX is annoying but basically as common to life as eating and breathing. The inability to start a new game, and a CAPCOM STATEMENT saying they will CONSIDER adding a NEW GAME "FEATURE" in the future - THIS is the true crime committed by Capcom.

You guys just bend over and take it, and tell me it's normal when you have to pay $2.99 to delete your character and start over in future AAA titles. The rest of us won't

Ok, I'll admit you got me on the whole not being able to start a new game. I haven't had an issue with that myself but I'll call BS with you. Honestly complaints about proper issues and demanding refunds if you don't like the game could do a lot to get Capcom to pop their heads back out and maybe actually fix something.

You gave up the ghost when you suggested tipping studios. I appreciate the attempt but at think point I'm beginning to believe you might actually have a learning disability. What else am I to assume when someone suggests being AGAINST predatory mtx is being ANTI-consumer. I am anti-consooooooomer, but thats entirely different and in fact pro-consumer.

By adding these items to the store that you have to pay real money for, it very much suggests that, even if these items are available in game, they will either be limited in supply or they will be hard/inconvenient to get. I guarantee you that Capcom would not have made these available to purchase with real cash if getting these items free in-game was easy.

This isn't necessarily true. Capcom also produced Devil May Cry 5, and that game was selling red orbs when it came out, with like 100k of them costing 5 or 10$ (can't remember which). However, you could farm 120k red orbs in 45 seconds on mission 12 by literally hitting B with Faust over and over again, then hitting restart, leading up to over a million red orbs in under 10 minutes, which would have cost 100$ to buy outright.

Capcom doesn't tend to do like other companies where the entire game is developed around the MTX, what Capcom does is they just set what I call "impulsive idiot traps", where they make a bunch of MTX for things hoping that people buy them before realizing how easy they are to get.

Bear in mind, this is not me justifying the pointless MTX this game has, but more just me saying, the way Capcom adds them is generally so abysmally stupid, that you won't even notice that you didn't buy them if you play through the game normally.

The entire point of tipping is that it's always optional. You afraid Capcom is gonna shame you for not giving them more money? Tipping them is more money towards development. If late game is really that difficult without the store items I'll change my tune but I doubt I'll lose any fun over it. I also fully plan on never buying any of the other DLC myself. Tipping is optional and I only do it as far as it deserves... and my wallet can handle.

The absolute mind broken absurdity equating buying mtx to tipping aside, tipping rewards service. I get good service, they get a good tip. Applying this simple formula to dd2, what kind of tip does poor wittle capcom deserve for
>abysmal pc optimization
>lack of basic features present in rpgs since the 80s
>putting a limit on standardly unlimited features with extra uses available for purchase

If anything they should comp my meal.

Deluxe camp set and the heartfelt pendant. Both are in the steam store and not listed as obtainable in game. The devs have also come out with a list for what is found in game and neither shows up. So not all DLC items are found in game. Saying otherwise is lying. At least get your facts straight.

The are both in-game lol.

Camp set is 2000 gold , pendant is available from vendor for RC LMAO.

Some people just like to be dumb I guess.:steamfacepalm:

That's called a refund. Can't blame them for Steam's garbage return policy... though I guess you could for using Steam in the first place. Other than that optimization issues are almost always fixed eventually, usually sooner than later. My PC is a few years old now and I don't notice many issues other than random crashes while checking skills. No start new game option is complete BS but it'll likely be fixed before I care to use it. The saving method is annoying but tracks with DDDA, guess they liked the feel of not backing out of consequences. Also haven't seen complaints about not buying mtx actually ruining gameplay.

It doesn't matter. The fact that they exist is a NO.

We need to stop allowing companies to include these in SINGLE PLAYER GAMES. $70 ones.
