Wait..... what the ♥♥♥♥... Season Pass TWO?!

[Phunkenstein]

I hopped into my DLC list excited to possibly check out the new Bardock DLC, only to find out that I don't own it. I have the season pass...didn't that used to mean I get all future DLC? A season pass 2....now that's just corporate greed at its finest. I googled it for a sec and apparently Borderlands 3 did a season pass 2 as well. Not surprising from either particular company, just very frustrating.

I am not buying another "season pass", especially when Bardock has such mediocre reviews already. It's all just screaming "CASH GRAB".

100,000,000,000,000,000 true id do infinity sign but forgot how. im so sick of mis leading sells tactics. single player season passes have alway been one time this is not call of duty or overwatch or fortnite

Do you know what the word "Season" means?
It doesn't mean "All Future Forever Till the End of Time".

I don't understand how people can be so short-sighted, you do understand that the "SEASON" pass was only meant to have those 3 DLC that they showed us. It was never meant to be a pass for the next 20 years? How do you think businesses work? They need money to create more content, it's not a F2P game. It's completely optional to buy this pass. And no other game has a format in which they release paid dlc forever as part of a 20 euro season pass.

Also remember the content inside of this season pass is worth 3 story arcs and not boss battle episodes like the one before.

With season pass 2 you will get 3 story arc/episodes instead of 1 that we got with season pass 1.

You got the DLC that the original Season Pass promised you would.

The Season Pass 2 is different and falls outside that promise.

Really hate that I'm using this word but stop acting so entitled.

It's the standard for modern games, and DBZ games in general. FighterZ had 3 fighter passes.

You shouldn't be surprised by this, and Season 2 will be worth the price once they roll out the rest of the DLC packs

it means what ever they implied at the time. are you awARE that one word can mean multiple things. they have slowly changed the definition of what season meant to steam over the last decade. and of course not forever only for as long as they decided to keep adding content to said game until the released another newer title

Agreed. There was a time when Season Pass meant "for the life of the game", or at least until a GOTY, or Ultimate Edition was released years down the line.

Sadly, the meaning has been Ubisofted, so now it's a literal season.
Most devs are tying to make a subtle transition to subscription-based gaming (games as a service model).
So prepare for even less-polished games, more cosmetic in-game trinkets, and more loot-boxes, and most importantly prepare to spend even more $.

At least with Bandai, they are specific about what is included in the Season Passes, a lot of other companies aren't.

I own plenty of season passes for other games that were a one and done, a few of them came with 4-6 DLC over the coarse of the games lifetime. Season pass DID used to mean you get the games DLC, not just that "seasons" dlc. ESPECIALLY with a single player game, where there literally ISN'T a season. It makes sense for multiplayer games like fighters and the like, but not this.

Season passes exceeding the first pass only can be found in a few games, namely fighters. (I.E soul caliber, tekken, street fighter, mortal combat, DB fighter Z, smash bros etc.) Borderlands 3...which for all of you arguing and saying this post is "entitled"....borderlands 1 and 2 only have ONE season pass that actually got you ALL the future DLC. Hunter call of the wild did a second pass, Ark, GTA V, and rainbow six siege also ended with a second season pass.

As far as quick researching goes, that's the list of games that did a second season pass. I'm sure there are a few more, but those listed are still MULTIPLAYER games. MULTIPLAYER games with actual RANKED SEASONS.

So how am I entitled? My single player game with no literal competitive or even in game seasons just got a second season pass, whereas in the past one pass got you it all.

If you support the modern implementation of this practice you are part of the problem.

@Jumpinjas, The good old days I guess. GOTY and Season passes were originally meant to alleviate this very issue, but naturally when you can make more money as a business....so on so forth.

Seems like so many people around here lack basic reading skills or give enough of a ♥♥♥♥ to do so. All the DLC covered by the first season pass was listed in full since the store page went up. At no point did it ever say "all future DLC that may or may not be planned or even happen."

[Doomguy]

*sigh* here we go again /facepalm
you get exactly what was written. They NEVER stated you'd get all the future dlcs.

@hammerstar and Doomguy, thanks for popping in, reading literally no other posts, and adding nothing to the discussion!

Maybe you should have read the description of the original Season Pass before making a garbage topic.

@Phunkenstein
What he said. There is no discussion, you're just crying about a developer trying to sell a product that you think you deserve for free even though it wasn't included in the original agreement you purchased. Full stop.

There is nothing to discuss or add.

[Phunkenstein]

Not the point at all here. The point being the definition of the season pass. It used to mean something different, and maybe I should have read the pass description. There is a discussion here, most of you are just here to be toxic. There is a definitive history when it comes to the meaning of GOTY and season pass, and what they were created to combat.

Maybe don't be a bigot, and look it up yourselves.
