| DerNebel said: bolded: No, that's just a ridiculous. Where does this naivety come from? Devs all start thinking about DLC before their games are out. I mean really? Really? You think the Witcher 3 DLC that's just been announced for October had no planning done before the game was done? And regarding your edit, so you think this singleplayer DLC will release 1 month after the base game comes out? After the TLOU DLC released 8 months after the original game? People like you are just completely turning off all logic here by putting way too much meaning behind a simple freaking announcement that there is going to be a piece of single player DLC. Oh and have you played TLOU and the Left Behind DLC? |
If anything it would be mistrust, not naivety. It comes from all the rushed games released recently. After beeing conned so many times, there would be something wrong with me if i didnt learn from it.
The last of US wasnt the case, so i am not pointing the finger at that. If anything i just pointed out that they did it right and was sucessful so now they are looking at how to extort our money since they made it work. If its coming 8 months after and isnt obviously part of the main game (TLOU was a prequal) then i dont see a problem at all. The likelyness that it was ripped out of the main game is low.
It's when i see that time frame getting reduced, beeing bundled with the release and not having any kind of details that i start to worry about foul play.
And yes i have played TLOU, though not the DLC. But i know what its about.
You do have a point that i am beeing cynical. But, the ones responsible for that are the ones that are making me have to be cynical (though there are bigger foul players than Sony. WB, Ubi soft, konami, etc.). I have to be cynical, or i risk beeing gouged. I can't in good faith enable these practices without at least some transparancy from the publishers. I can't put my money upfront when i dont even know what this is or if it was indeed ripped out of the main gain for an earlier release and a later gouging.
