Bombard? "Just after"? It's been a few months since it ended, and you do know that they also stopped selling the season pass don't you?

Give this link a quick read read if you're interested:

I have and don't see the issue

His comment has little to do with additional DLCsafter the season pass.  He's complaining about the DLC included in the release.  None of it that comes after.  

Tell me this: In February, did you or did you not know that TLOU Remastered was in production and that it would include Left Behind? You gladly took my $20 for my season pass in February, only to turn around and include that content in the Remastered edition. I feel you guys purposely withheld this information to milk more money. I feel cheated. I would not have bought a season pass in February if I had known it would all be included in the July Remastered rerelease. I feel like you guys don’t care and are like “Okay, tough luck.” I paid $130 into TLOU so far.

1.5 years ago would've been about 10 months before the PS4 launched.  In this case it is about 6 months before the game launched, so there is a bit of a difference, but it isn't gigantic.  

My post was a suggestion to what some of the conversation is about in that thread. The whole topic is not only about expired season pass.

Yeah, that complaint really makes no sense at all. Nobody forced him to buy the Remaster and GOTY Editions that include DLC are basically common practice.

His complaint makes about as much sense as saying "I bought this game at full price and now it has become cheaper and you don't even care that I paid full price"

His issue was not your point entirely.

Actually it's exactly the same thing, he's complaining that the season pass DLC is already included in the Remaster and that nobody told him that, which just makes no sense. He already had the original game and the season pass, how can he then go, buy the Remaster and afterwards complain about the Remaster including the season pass DLC?? Just don't buy the Remaster then, nobody's forcing you.

I mean, I don't like the microtransaction business that ND has adapted since UC3 but this complaint is just really dumb.



Basically the complaining is that people who bought Remaster didn't get the MP DLC with it, and feel screwed. I don't care about this personally. I don't play the game online. While the people who bought the Season pass on PS3 feel screwed, because the pass ended and they released more stuff. You aren't gonna win. In till the game is long dead and discontinued support. DLC is gonna keep being made. You're never gonna get everything made for the game. Unless you wait that long. Even then. DLC is usually never on sale. Still, this is all optional. Does the DLC weapons really cause a unbalancing problem? Or are people getting mad because of the cool/want factor of the guns.

He sounds more like a blind follower the more I read about his posts. He wanted to "help" ND like a lot of them in PS Blog but bunch of them are some misinformed bunch.

Also, I don't know how clear was ND when they revealed the season pass (length and content), so I can't really judge this situation.

They did get the MP DLC.. they didn't the new cosmetic stuff



It's only really nickel and diming if the DLC could in any way be seen as essential for MP. If its all completely optional then I have no problem with any developer looking to get revenue out of superficial content.

Okay. The comments in the ND fourms are confusing me. So then it's the whole day 1 DLC problem then. Where this DLC should of been in the Remaster disc.



i didn't know the Season Pass can end...

I just read the details on it, and it's not exactly an all-you-can-download DLC buffet, but more like a DLC bundle.

I think most people are mad because they thought that it is like other season passes, where all DLC is included.

On top of that, people seem to be having issues accessing all of their season pass content in the PS4 version.  



Did Goasteye bought or intend to buy the game?? If not, as I'm certain, why do he care so much about this DLC or the DLC that will come out in 2 weeks with the Maps and Guns pack??

I do remember ND also releasing free maps DLC, or after sometime putting paid DLC for free.
