Why can't DLC's be Free?

[Stephano]

Like seriously $4,000+ for all DLC's? Jesus, i get it that it is another way to make money but nobody has the time to spend $4,000+ on all of them or buying them individually. I Just don't understand it, They should just be free and be happy that people are actually playing their game, trust me I've been playing guitar for 13 years, and just wanting to learn songs for free instead of paying to play 1 song is ridiculous.

EDIT: No need to comment anymore, i've already had this explained to me thank you.

Now i see why DLC's aren't free...
Well that sucks, i don't really have a job at the moment and i can't find one where i live so i'll just have to keep playing the same songs over and over again on the game but i guess it gives me time to learn them when they're at 110%

There is always the sales most of the time they ar 40-50% off
put them in wish list and check it once in a while

Alrighty Thanks

The worst answer is if you can't afford it, go steal it...

Good luck getting a job... Wish the best for you!.. Then look for the steam sales and get discounted legal DLC.

Adding RS's official statement on it:

Please see my link above... also, read though the post by UBIVertigo linked below... Especially read the part about what is licensing and follow the link:

With all the licensing, royalties, etc aside. Do you like the game? Do you like the songs?


Is it to much to ask that you pay $10.00 for 3-4 songs you like to keep many people employed while you have a blast playing songs.


Btw -- when you say buy all, the pricing does not remove that which you have already bought. I have 300+ songs and I still get a $4K to buy them all. and you have to remove all songs and packs already purchased.


It would be nice to know the real cost to complete the library, however that's a steam issue not UbiSoft.

Again, I've already had this explained to me, i don't need anymore feedback thank you.

Nah, I think he is saying that he vented, but now understands the reason for the price. So, just doesn't want to get beat up over the initial post.

I was venting and got feed back and a reason why the DLCs are not free, by the way thank you caldaar for understanding and giving me the reasons why they're not free.

No problem

IN all honesty, i just really want the Lamb Of God Song Pack...

[Stephano]

I love Lamb Of God's Music, I just can't play the ones i really want to play since i do not have money or anything.

I like the music, can't get past the vocal.

I'll even sing along with them when i'm playing, i just really want to play Laid To Rest and Walk With Me In Hell. I'd seriously do anything for those 2 songs.

I am with thejohnnewton on this one.... Not my taste in music... But, I have to admit that the pack does have some sweet guitar riffs in it. I could see it as being a fun pack to play, but the vocals are a little rough for me.

If you like it, cool... just we each have our own tastes.
