Have you played Dark Arisen already? Have you finished it? What makes you think that $20 is the value of the new content + the improvements? New Content
Furthermore, owners of the original Dragon’s Dogma will receive 100,000 Rift Crystals, unlimited Ferrystones and the Gransys Armour Pack consisting of six brand new costumes for free, upon purchasing Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen.[...] Based on player feedback, Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen will make the Dragon’s Dogma gameplay experience even more satisfying with improvements such as easier travel and a more intuitive menu system. For those who already own Dragon’s Dogma and then purchase Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen, these improvements will be automatically retrofitted to their original game save data.
I find it a hard to believe you to be a fair judge with respects to the value of the content provided in this expansion. I won't even know how much it's really worth until I finish it. P.S. I took all that info from dragon's age wiki page (link): http://dragonsdogma.wikia.com/wiki/Dragon%27s_Dogma:_Dark_Arisen |
All of what you have mentioned, for me, is not worth more than $20. And that is why I am not buying it at $40. By the time the game hits $20, IF I find it appealing and have nothing more to play, I will buy it.
