Comment on Borderlands 4′s New $30 Expansion Pack Isn’t Winning Over Fans
Nelots@piefed.zip 12 hours agoFair enough, that is an option. I meant if you specifically want the whole package. Nothing turns me off of a game quite like going to the store page and seeing $300 worth of DLC to go through.

Speaking to BL4 in particular, it certainly doesn’t make me feel good to have to parse a chart to see which DLC I have to buy to get the thing that I want, but with Paradox games, I definitely don’t want all $300 of DLC, especially at the start and they’re all in a readable linear list. I think I bought 3 expansions for Cities: Skylines, and the others didn’t speak to me, so especially on a sale, it’s not a high buy-in. The “whole package” would include tons of stuff I had no interest in using.

I’m more of a “grab everything and get rid of the stuff I don’t like next time I play” kind of person. There’s just too much DLC to look through for me to really find what I like, figure out how their systems work with each other and actually feel to play, etc.. Though I will say that if I like a DLC enough and it doesn’t cost too much, I’ll buy it. I think I’ve done that with Nemesis and Utopia so far.
