Fondragon. I buy most DLCs, even item packs, doesn't mean I can't see the problem inherent or that I possibly fuel the problem with my purchase. This is why it's a Catch 22.

[Shaftell]

Poeple come on, crying about dlc item packs really? It wont be free, if it should have been part of the game is discussable, It wont stop ... Instead of being happy you can get something new into the game, you cry ... would you rather wait half a year+ and get nothing? ... I am actually happy we got another pack I kinda like Qunari so cool .. the wait will be better now atleast for me .. Is really 5 euro that of a problem come on .. You are just being salty over nothing .. if u dont want it dont buy it period .. being angry wont change anything

You do realize it's not about the money right? It's the methods they use to milk people. This stuff are assets used in the upcoming story dlc. They are double dipping instead of already including it as part of the story dlc. It's insulting to me as a fan of bioware and frankly it's bad for gaming. They have to have more respect for their consumers. This process of always having their hands in our pockets trying to squeeze the last dollar out of us. I don't like it. I'll gladly buy their story based dlcs, I don't mind spending money on additional content so long as it's done respectfully.

I would ask why they're just throwing decorations. Why not give us more options to tidy up Skyhold, patch up all those holes and rooms?

Bioware has new engine, is focusing on ME:A and under EA policy ... what can i say

 

 

Those are such a 3 really lame excuses.

 

• New engine? well, they should have mastered it before launching the game.
• Bioware is now focusing on ME:A? Great!!! So let's keep buying DAI bullsh*t because they are not focusing on DAI.
• Oh, poor Bioware, it's always EA's fault.

DICE can't even handle their own engine, and they created it. I'm far from a Bioware apologist, but I don't blame them for their lack of understanding of Frostbite.

[Laughing_Man]

The fact that there is no modding support has nothing to do with those "horse armor" style DLC's.

 

Right?...

 

I could mention again CD Project Red and the staggering difference in attitude towards their consumers between them and Bioware,

but this horse is deader than dead.

 

So yay, another money grab.

Go create it on your own or give a good feedback (good doesnt mean full of positives)

1- A new engine is no excuse for releasing overpriced cosmetic content instead of story-based DLC.
2- A completely separate studio is making Andromeda so this excuse is entirely stupid.
3- Origins DLC was made after EA bought BioWare.

Lame, faulty excuses all.

This is the dumbest argument you can make. If someone criticizes a movie do you tell them to make a better movie? If someone says a book sucks do you tell them to write a better book?

DAI received GOTY in a particularly shitty year for gaming, without having any real competitors.

 

Awards and unrealistically high ratings from a clique that its members take turns congratulating each other, are not really impressive.

If only CDPR had released TW3 a few months earlier...

Agreed. But I'll go ahead and beat that dead horse anyway. The fact that I purchased the expansion pass for TW3 for $25 and all the alternate outfits, horse armor, minor quests, etc. for free, is a much better deal than what $25 gets you for DAI: Jaws of Hakkon and two armor dlcs.

What does any of this gibberish have to do with what I posted?

[Eterna]

Just an FYI, you don't have to buy it. You should be thankful that this is how Bioware and EA are trying to milk us for money, some games and their dlc is just outrageous.

 

Not saying that this makes everything okay, blatant cash grabs are bad, but at least recognize that it could be a hell of a lot worse and that these items pack are completely optional. 

[Scofield]

I like DA:I

 

I like the look of the Qunari spoils DLC

 

I want DA to continue

 

sign me up for 2 n to hell what anyone on these boards think

People who cite cd projekt red as if they're the such kind hearted individuals tend to forget two things.

1. Their development is subsidized by their government. Meaning, no matter how many copies they sell they still get paid and there is less risk involved on the developers part. Pretty easy to flaunt yourself as the peoples champ when in reality sales numbers don't influence your payday at all.

2. This "free" dlc program is nothing more than held back content that is slowly released. You really think it takes them 1 week to create these dlcs? And yet every week they're coming out with new ones. These expansions were already completed long ago alongside development of the vanilla game. Your average sheeple is either completely ignorant or in denial of this. Fact of the matter is this is a common practice in the industry, we are seeing bioware do it themselves with these spoils packs. Only difference is bioware doesn't have a subsidized development, cdpr does. So bioware has to put a price tag on it to get paid while cdpr does not. The currency cdpr is accepting since it's development is subsidized is brownie points from gamers who will go to every corner of the earth singing their praises as if cdpr is giving them free content out of the kindness of their hearts.

I'm in no way defending biowares practices, but to suggest cdpr is any different is ludicrous.

Any proof for anything you just wrote?

[JadeDragon]

I miss when Dragon Age dlc content was released with the respective dlc. Spoils of Avvar should have been in Jaws and Spoils of Qun should be in the next dlc. What if Starfang and Warden Commander Armor was sold separately from the Warden's Keep? I know there has been item packs in the past but they were not connected to the story DLC because the story dlc gave you the armor weapons and companion stuff when it came out. The item packs in DA2 had two armor sets for each class thats 6 in total so if you bought both item packs thats 12, there was a weapon included for each weapon type and amulets and rings as well as companion items if i am not mistaken. Best part of all it had its own lore and was not connected to any of the other DLCS. Each DLC use to have its own identity, and there is no excuse to sell armors that npcs wear in a dlc as a separate dlc except to take advantage of its fan base. I have bought every Dragon Age DLC except for this game(gonna get Jaws once all DLCs are out), DLCS like this is clearly to take money from the pockets of the core fans of dragon Age because casual fans more then likely will not buy a cosmetic dlc because they already beat the game at least Twice by now.

[zambingo]

SotA being in Hakkon certainly would have helped the value argument for Hakkon. That point seems pretty valid and glaring when comparing how Warden's Keep etc were done.

[BansheeOwnage]

Everyone slow down. Spoils of the Avvar actually isn't ripped from JoH. It's ripped from the base game! I just went back to the Fallow Mire and noticed that the Avvar wear those outfits in there too. In other words, they're taking armour from the base game that they chose not to make craftable, and are selling it as DLC. Come on Bioware. Ugh.

[Wulfram]

Work does have to be done to change armour from single race, non-craftable stuff, to making it wearable by all races and craftable. It's not just a case of flicking a switch and calling it DLC.

Kind of* to the former, but I seriously doubt it's hard to make one into a schematic. Besides, it's irrelevant really. They're still selling base-game armours.

 

*Kind of because they actually did a terrible job of making it available on all races. Take a look at the armour in Spoils of the Avvar (I haven't seen Qunari). It totally distorts anyone but a human and makes the Qunari look mishapen and small, and the elves look fat and disproportional. That might even be because they just took the human form and stretched it instead of doing it properly. Either way, it's clear that wasn't a huge hurdle for them. If they expect me to pay for something (that I shouldn't have to anyway) I expect it to be of high quality.

 

Edit: Even the one new armour in JoH, the only non-race specific one besides the defaults, distorts ALL races. I refuse to wear it even on my human (even though I think it looks cool) because it totally changes her body. She looks like a qunari with a human head.

No I just pulled all of that from my ass. If you want to verify that, you can do so on your own. It's not my responsibility to prove this to you. I'm simply informing people who are criminally misinformed in their praise of CDPR. Your belief or misbelief in what I wrote has no effect on the reality of the situation.

Well, um, no that's not how it works - if you make a claim, you have to back it up in order to be taken seriously. It's a standard courtesy in any sort of half-decent discussion.
