It's DLC, as simple as that. It doesn't really matter when they finished it, it's something that was likely always DLC.
Also, you seem to think that just because you have to download DLC day one that means they were working on it between when the game went gold to the time it was released which isn't really true for all things.
If it's something huge like Borderlands or Fallout DLC, then yeah, that probably wasn't finished. If it's something like a few extra maps or whatever Bioshock 2 has, it was likely finished befor the game was released to manufacturer even if you had to download it day one.
It's simply how the publisher decides to release the stuff. If they want to be like Valve and continually release free DLC that's their choice. Valve has craploads of money coming in from Steam so they can afford to do that. With Bioshock 2, they don't have that so they need to get their money somewhere. If it's nickel and diming their customers, that's their choice just like it's your choice whether to buy the DLC or not.

So I am just wondering, what's your stance on piracy? Because all these excuses and stuff really sounds like a pirate's logic, just switched words.

- I'm against piracy
- How do you figure?

I feel entitled to [SOMETHING], I will find a way to get [SOMETHING], then I will justify it with poor excuses.
SOMETHING = Game for pirates
SOMETHING = Money for some developers

Ah, I see.
With publishers, they are offering you a service. You can choose to buy that service or simply not to.
With pirates, they're simply cheap fucks that want something for free. They see something they feel entitled to and simply take it.
There's a bit of a difference and that's all I'm going to say on the subject since this isn't a thread about piracy.

See the way I see it, publishers as well are cheap fucks who want somethign for almost nothing. They feel entitled to it and simply find some way to take it.
Sinceit's a thread about the DLC, look at the MW2 DLC, it fully supports what I am saying, 2 of their new maps are even already made.
