Sorry, but I have to respectfully disagree here. Selling 4 maps for $10? Alright, I can deal with that. But selling a difficulty mode for $5? And 2 packs with 4 multiplayer skills, for $4 each? That is clearly Sony milking the success of the game. The pricing for these DLC packs isn't chosen based on the amount of work that went into them, no they're priced this high to encourage people to get the season pass, I'm almost certain of this.

Also this way they can put a stamp that says something like "includes over $40 worth of bonus content" on the Remastered edition of the game. I love the game but I feel that Sony are really pushing the limits of monetization with this.

Nothing. But I don't need to to understand when a company is milking the success of one of it's products.

Really then, then I might as well download COD: Classic on my PS3 right now. Besides, I haven't played the original Call of Duty so I might as well see how fun the game is, even if it's just a 2003 game simply ported to 7th gen consoles. Also, considering this is before the downfall of Call of Duty (Before Call of Duty became a year-on-year complete 100% rehash), I am going to bet this game has some dignity and quality within itself, so why not.

They can charge whatever they want to charge. There is no moral obligation when it comes to pricing. These "limits" you speak of do not exist and are just your own preference to what it should be priced at. Producers make their product and offer a price. If you believe the product is worth the price, then you should buy the product. If you don't think the product is worth the price, then that's fine too; just don't buy the product. But just because you don't think the product is worth it's price doesn't imply some sort of moral violation by the producers.

Is Sony trrying to milk the success of the game? Of course! This is a business, not a charity. 

The landing of the russians stalingrad (or somewhere else. I don't remember) is still one of my favorite cod moments. 

Up until May 13, you can purchase a season pass and get all the DLC available, so if you are interested, do it before then.

This limit I'm talking about is not a limit of morality, it's a limit of what consumers in general are willing to pay. Of course they can charge what they want and if people are paying it, then I'd be the last person to tell them not to charge this kinda money, but this is the problem here I feel that Sony are being greedy and are therefore reaching or in the case of the mulitplayer skills even breaking the limit of what people are willing to pay. This can backfire and result in less sales and money overall, for example I know that I won't pay this kinda money, even if I'd love to try out the Grounded difficulty.

So the business and charity comparison doesn't really work here, since Sony might hurt themselves more with this pricing model than they would if they'd price the DLC more cheaply.

If you weren't talking about morality then why did you disagree with my original post?

Crash bandicoot, Jak, Uncharted. All three IPs have more success, but never did ND fuck their fans.

They've redone all the games AI, so the fans could discover that awesome story once again. It's up to you to pay 5$ or keep your money, but if you really think ND is mocking their fans, please have arguments. That just looks like a kid's rant at this point.

Because you said that this move wasn't inherently greedy, which I disagree with. I feel this move is very greedy, so much so that it forgoes the in my opinion better decision of pricing the stuff cheaper so more people buy it and it instead goes for the very simplistic but very often also wrong "ask for more money=make more money"-approach.
