Lol give me a break. Ive been gaming since the SNES who cares how old you are.

Everyone who bitches and moans about this stuff it just living in fantasy land. Its a proven fact games havent gotten more expensive when you factor in inflation. Games havent gotten shorter.

And really developers used to release complete games and they dont anymore? Bullshit. Some companies are cheap asses like Capcom and put DLC on disc but MANY companies like Bethesda, Gearbox, Rockstar, and others put out fantastic DLC. And no I dont deserve to get that for free. They put resources and man hours into it so I should pay for it.

And Im 24 no idea why Vgchartz always says Im a year younger on my profile

The SNES launched in 1991. I had one that Christmas. I was 11, which would have made you what, 2? I'm not trying to be a douche about your age, but simply saying that this generation is the first gen you've experienced as an adult. When we're kids, our view point is a bit different and nostalgia clouds what little we DO get right.

And yes, most developers don't release complete games. They make the game, keep 30% for DLC, and then release the rest for $10.00 more. You're paying 80,90..even $100.00 for experiences you use to pay $50.00 for. As for the whole "they put man hours into it" thing, they use to do that 10 years ago, only it was shipped on the disc and included in the original price.

They have the right to do what they want, but that doesn't change the fact that DLC had been abused an exploited for the purpose of making more for less. If you don't mind, fine. But facts are facts.

So what are those 30% you keep talking about ? Certainly not on disc dlc, because those are incredibly tiny compared to the whole product.
And what DLC is 1/3 of the total length of a game ? Must be the longest DLC ever.
