| Dodece said: Questions. 1. Which do you consider yourself on the issue progressive or well lets just say conservative? 2. Have you purchased DLC during the past year, and if so how many items and how much was spent? 3. What is your spending threshold. How much for you is too much? 4. Do you calculate value before purchase upto including in depth research, or is it more a whim of the moment? 5. Which have you purchased more of games, expansions, or miscelaneous? 6. Answer honestly do you feel most available DLC content is garbage? 7. Answer honestly do you have the means to purchase DLC both technical and financial? 8. For you what is the most important aspect of DLC in your consideration that persuades or would persuade you to make a purchase. |
1. I'm conservative
2. I must have spent 6 € on a PC Engine game on the Wii, that's all.
3. There's no spending threshold on my part. Downloading for me is not limited by money spent. Thus, there's no way to know how much is too much. It depends entirely on other factors than price. Price was never an incentive to buy sth, that would be stupid. You don't go around buying a lot of $1 stuff, and then don't buy $1000 stuff. This question is actually either stupid or badly made.
4. Value is calculated of course. That's how people buy things. Only people with too much money and time on their hand could buy DLC on a whim. That's because DLC don't just jump in your face, you actually have to take the steps to get to it before being confronted to it. So you need an incentive first to do that. Hence why the answer to this question should be obvious, and why the previous one is stupid.
5. I've purchased more games. All (games, expansions, miscellaneous) are bad buys in my view anyway. This content being tied to the console even more strongly than a game optical disc, it's actually more expensive and has less value than a game disc. So it's far worse.
6. No.
7. Yes
8. Scarcity, or even worse (better), rarity of the content. If I can have sth with another mean that DLC, it usually will get my preference. That's because DLC, such as it's done nowadays, has the worst value of all methods.
