Hello, my fellow gamers.
It's happened to all of us. You complete a game that has been draining your time for the last 2 months. It's all over. You feel deflated, like you could never experience the same rush as being fully immersed in one of the greatest storytelling devices ever.
Then, from out of nowhere:
'NEW ADD ON DLC AVAILABLE FOR HOG KNIGHTS IV. NEW AREAS, NEW MONSTERS, NEW WEAPONS. It's time to Hog Wild.....' *Screeching guitar solo*
You literally faint and, before you know it, you've shelled out 15 quid to buy some DLC. And you're back in the game...But, it's not the same. The areas are awesome. The Weapons are cool. But...it's just not the same.
But, as time goes on, you realize you become complacent. The DLC becomes Map Packs, Skins and Avatar Items. But you're still paying for it. Because, maybe you'll re-live the magic you used to have in the old days.
So, my question to you, as someone who has brought full price DLC, through sheer wonderment of a unique story (I'm looking at you, Fallout 3) Is DLC a good thing? Does it add to the game as a whole, or is it another way of sapping funds from your wallet and you're just stupid enough to buy into it.
Stay frosty!
