I think a lot of y'all are missing the obvious. The "free content" - Shale and the armor, etc. is to reward people for actually buying the game, as opposed to... say... stealing it. Not like anybody would do that, right? Personally, I think it's a nice thing to do for people who support the company.

As for Warden's Keep - if you got the CE, it was a freebie (and I'm kicking myself for not getting the CE), if you didn't - well, as others have pointed out, the game's plenty playable without it. As for "The camp should be moved to the Keep after you clear it." No. While it's not immediately clear, it is if you think about it and also if you watch your map as you travel - the camp is right near wherever you last were. They stop on the road and set up camp - they don't travel 3 weeks each way back to the Keep. Makes sense to me.


pretty sure free dlc is designed to get people "into" the system.

I actually would not doubt this.  It is a great way to introduce the DLC system to the players and get them into the system.

I do not agree. The only way it could be seen as a "milking scheme" is if players were required to buy the DLC in order to continue playing the game. If the game were such that it could not  be finished without spending more money to add DLC, then you might have a legitimate beef.

DLC is there as an option, not a requirement. It can enhance the game and extend replay by adding in more in-game content. Also, there has been a wealth of free content. The character generator, the toolset, the dragon armor, and the golem quest, are all available sans extra cost.

You know you have no argument to say it is milking. They realeased the editor and already there is a respec add on and a camp chest. For FREE. Plus you can create your own things. Nuff said.
