The DLC will be a new release though.

Aw cool I love it when game companies work on a decade old game’s expansion instead of the new release!

Eh, same way Skyrim Anniversary Edition or Oblivion Remastered were.
Still milking the same cow because it’s easier and lower risk.

If it’s anything like the two other DLC it’s a bit more than “a bit of content”. The cynisism of putting a bad spin on supporting an old game with content is exhausting tbh.

It mostly comes from the exhaustion of video game companies making big announcements and then pretending for years they never happened.
Be it Cyberpunk 2077 (that didn’t even have the actual concept when they originally planned to release the game), The Witcher IV (remember we’re promised that?), or, like, you know, The Elder Scrolls VI from that same genre (announced almost a decade ago).
Companies attract attention with big announcements, and then just take the easy path, making remakes of remakes of remakes, occasionally bringing in a little bit of content into their older titles.
It wouldn’t be problematic with the old games if they actually tried to make the new ones for once.

How is a new story dlc even remotely close to oblivion remastered? It’s not a revamp of the same game, it’s brand new content for it. And considering they said it’s on the same scale as Blood & Wine, it should be almost a full game’s worth of content (pending reviews of course).

If it’s remotely on par with their previous dlc offerings it’ll be a dozen hours of content easy. The entire god of war game didn’t last that long.

It’s almost like we all don’t want the same things.
