| RavenXtra said: The prices seem fine, but I'm still not a fan of how close these packs are coming out to the release of the game. They obviously aren't going to whip up these DLC storylines in a week and a half after launch, they must have been completed already and are being kept out of the main game to sell later. |
They were probably planned and written before the game ever entered the programming phase. You don't just carve things out of a game, especially a story-driven game. That would be much harder than developing DLC independently from the start. In that sense, it's not being kept out, as it was probably never a part of the main game to begin with--that, or it was removed in pre-planning as part of the natural process of paring down a game's content. I remember one video-game writer saying that much of the content that is proprosed at the beginning never makes it into the final game at all, though some might be considered for DLC later.
