 Too bad this was censored in the west :P

 

Ugh, right? Damn NoA. This shot isn't even that bad. It's essentially the same one as Chrom's.

The DLC for this game is completely overpriced so I kind of pretended it didn't exist. I wouldn't mind playing it but it would cost as much as the full game to get it all.

Hmm.... Mixed reactions, I see. Keep the posts coming. I really appreciate it.

Indeed, we people of PAL missed out on the splendor that is Tharjas ass. DISGRACEFUL!!!

But back on topic. As much of the FE fan that I am I skipped on the DLC simply because of the price. Luckily Nintendo DLC has gotten a tad batter since then.

I'm waiting for a pricedrop on the DLC. Maybe when the new FE is approaching, Nintendo may make a special offer, 10-15 € for all the DLC. As it is, it's overpriced.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

I didn't touch any of the DLC. Waiting for all of it bundled for a reasonable price.

I bought the experience and gold maps... Made the game super easy...

You don't need the DLC. Doing any of the DLC stuff before you complete game can buff you and make rest of game less challenging, so I actually recommend against the DLC.

After you have finished the game, you can get the DLC if you just want to partake in some expensive fan service content.

Point three is right on: The DLC is way too expensive for what you get.

So I recently finished Fire Emblem: Awakening and I absolutely loved it!  So much so that I was thinking of buying some DLC.  However, I have some issues with the DLC in Awakening.

 

1. Selling Power:

DLC should not sell power.  It's ironic that I'm criticizing the game for doing this, when the power is the reason I want to buy it.  I am interested mainly in the Outrealm Skills.

 

2. Division of Fanbase:

When I StreetPass someone whose unit has DLC Skills, I can't buy his unit.  This is another issue with DLC that I do not want to support.  It is not a major deal in Fire Emblem because with the aforementioned exception of StreetPass, Fire Emblem is not at all a multiplayer game.

 

3. Overpriced:

I feel the Awakening DLC is overpriced.  Yes, the replay value is unlimited, and I assume I can buy once and use it across all save files, but $3 for one map is asking for a lot.  Now there are, however, two ways I can save money on this.  One method is buy the packs and get the savings from that.  The other is quite the opposite, to only buy the maps that give me the rewards I actually care about.  Recommendations?

 

So how do you feel about how DLC was handled in Awakening?  Should we oppose it?  I'd like to especially hear from those who have bought it.

It is VERY high priced. The ONLY DLC that is really worth getting is the EXP and Gold packs. Those are worth every cent. I've only gotten a few of the others.
