Bought *definitive* edition, seems to be missing the soundtrack

[ScothMcBeast]

After buying DE and couldn't find the soundtrack, which is awesome. Store page hints that it is *still* sold separately. Am I missing something or is my English too bad? Doesn't definitive mean that it holds everything available?

No, Definitive Edition (DE) does not includes soundtrack. It is just 2016 year version of otherwise year 2015 game with some differences. And you can buy only Definitive Edition that should hint you that DE is not some kind of an all-included package.

Ok, I guess I read too much into the word. Usually when I've come across DE in movies or even series they tend to include everything in one package and nothing more coming ever again. Oh well, there is youtube :)

In this context it means it's considered to be the best version /of the game/ (when comparing available versions); the version which effectively defines the named game, incorporating all the aspects of gameplay that make it the best experience, likely meaning the most enjoyable & closest to the designers' vision for the game. It doesn't generally imply all inclusive of any extras which might be available separately.

Perhaps there's confusion as some games are available in packages that bundle game with any available dlc & other extras such as soundtrack, artwork etc. If a game package is itself described as the definitive package you could argue you'd expect that to contain all possible extras. Not so much when definitive is just applied to the game. Context (in respect of what is being defined) is important.

you need to buy the original soundtrack seperately, or if you bought the 10 dollar version then the soundtrack is included.

Thanks for the replies. Guess I'm not ready to chip in double for the OST compared to the actual game.
