Except they're not, because no one is actually gonna be paying $60 for just the content currently being reviewed.

But that content isn't out yet. They cannot review a game on promises of things to come. They can only review what's in their console at the moment.

And plenty of games offer free DLC over an extended period of time, yet offer a full game on release. Here's a recent example: Witcher 3.

It doesn't need to be out to prove what I said. If you review the game correctly a.k.a. with the knowledge in mind that more content will come which due to being free is part of the main package hence must be acknowledged, then you wouldn't be saying irrelevant junk like "5 maps not enough!" and instead saying if those 5 maps are enough to hold you over until the updates start coming.

Well good for those other games.
