why all the content have to be paid dlc?

[Falcos01]

Grand Turismo updates are always free, free cars, free tracks the improvement are free as well.

Even Nürburgring track was included in the original Assetto Corsa and most other games.

the reason gt7 can do that is because it's funded by sony also gt7 has dlc cars.

[Oberbonze Pipapo]

Because Developers need to earn money, they dont work for free, its not charity. And btw the base game is like 10€. So paying for a DLC every few months is not a big deal if you enjoy a game.

smaller studio, and they deserve the money. Sony can do that because they make other games. Kunos only make AC and ACC. Costs a lot for them to get this content.

I don't like it still you release a game with half the content and than sell the rest of the content overpriced later.

Thats not true. Its not EA or Ubisoft where they release DLCs two weeks after release.

The Game is out for years already and the continuisly bring new content like new cars for example, they could not even bring to release. And they could not bring Nords earlier.

The dlc in this game are reasonably priced and good quality. I'm fine with it.

Gran Turismo's content doesn't take nearly as many development resources to create. This isn't to say the game is bad or anything but as far as the sim racing ecosystem goes, Gran Turismo sits at the higher end of the "sim-cade" or perhaps "survey sim" spectrum where modeling a wide variety of cars and tracks is favored over modeling a smaller variety to much greater levels of detail.

Assetto Corsa Competizione didn't release with "half the content". The main release was a full title that stood on its own and had all the content it needed to fulfill its initial scope. All the content after has been addon content that expands the game as opposed to completing it.

good point

It’s Easter Monday, which is either a good or bad day for sales, around 10k playing the game, according to steam DB. Let’s assume they all bought the game that’s £100k, less steams cut, that’s £70k in return. I don’t know how steam DB works but ACC is never that high on concurrent players. Normally 1-3k players.

GT7 and Forza have huge players bases, which generates huge sales on initial release to cover future free releases and make big money for DLC. So with smaller studios you have to accept dlc otherwise they will abandon ACC, and move to AC2 which is there next big cash injection.

Reiza are in the same situation so I’ll throw my money at both.
