Don't be silly, that's just for new customers. They've already got you tied into a 25 year fixed term tracker mortgage at 2.2%, why would they want to offer you a better deal?TheWonko said:So, if I already bought the dead tree version, and indeed, have it sitting on my shelf right now. Do I get DLC?
Hyperdemensional Neptunia would like to claim that prize:Zeel said:Make it rain.
If Mass Effect 3 doesn't set the record for Most-amount-of-DLC's in the history of gaming, i'll be shocked.
Go look up Railworks 3 on Steam. Neptunia pales in comparison to the amount of DLC this has.NiPah said:Hyperdemensional Neptunia would like to claim that prize:Zeel said:Make it rain.

Yeah, as bad as the US is it doesn't even come close to some of the things JRPGs have been pulling.
I completely agree, I'm also a paying member and I pay so I can support a website that I love because I think it is different from things like Joystiq, IGN etc... And worth supporting and help shield from flame and hopefully help keep this place in leaning more to an intellectual discussion on games or just to meet some cool escapists.Daft Ghosty said:Sorry, I'm just a paying reader of this website.

Yeah, I kind of lost any respect I had for Escapist.

Doubt it [http://store.steampowered.com/app/24010/]. Railworks 3: Train Simulator 2012 has 99 pieces of DLC.Zeel said:Make it rain.

This is what I hate about the anti-ending arguments; they lack logic and a generally one massive hyperbole. How you can genuinely say the ending not meeting expectations is like a car missing a windscreen is beyond me.Alamandorious said:Alright...so I guess if you were sold a car, a car that was exalted by critics, that the designers had said 'would be the car that ties in all the improvements from previous models into a complete vehicle', and you complained about it when it arrived without a windshield that you, by your logic, should be accused of being petulent and feeling entitled.
Wow.
Seriously? We were told that everything we did mattered, that everything we did was taken into account...and we ended up with a choice of 'red, green, or blue', all of which discard everything we'd done until that point.
Feeling entitled? Not really. Feeling disappointed and cheated? Highly.
That train simulator has 8000 dollars worth of DLC, About 400 packs and tons of skins if im not wrong, its gonna be hard to top it.Zeel said:Make it rain.

What a nice claim you made there, I'd like you to back it up, nobody I know hated the endings, I dont 'hate' the endings. Most reviews I watched, well. Didnt hate the ending. Only this small horde of bioware fans seesm to have gone directly up and stood against it, with the million ammounts of copies getting sold you would think if -everyone- hated it with passion it would get a lot more support. Then there are also the people who just dont care and those who bought it for the multiplayer.Abedeus said:And screw everyone that doesn't enjoy being milked to death after the shitty "YOU CAN CONTINUE SHEPARD'S LEGEND! IN THE DLC THAT WE WILL CONTINUE MAKING FOR NEXT THREE YEARS!" message you get after those Matrix Revolutions/Deus Ex 3 endings.

And yes, when they make a joke like that, they can't be punished or even lectured. When a user does it, he gets infraction/suspension.
Apologies if you've already been quoted, three pages of bitching is a little too much to handle before breakfast, but I had to ask. You are, in fact, aware that your $900 worth of DLC is blown completely out of proportion. In fact, if you look over the list, the majority of it is Hardware like Razor Mice and keyboards that come with a code for the Collector Rifle. Which is a multiplayer only weapon. The only -actual- DLC on their entire list is From Ashes, which is included for free in the Collector's Edition they added to the list.Dexter111 said:You kind of got it the wrong way around, I see a lot more publishers feeling "entitled" to a direct connection to the wallet of gamers, no matter if they put out crap or split up game content in over 900$ worth [http://kotaku.com/5888816/buying-all-of-mass-effect-3s-dlc-will-cost-you-870] of DLC.Earnest Cavalli said:Unless you're too busy being entitled and petulant about the end of Mass Effect 3. That's cool too, I guess.
I liked Mass Effect [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.61865-Mass-Effect-PC-Pro-Contra] and loved Mass Effect 2 [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.175197-Mass-Effect-2-PC-Pro-Contra], but you know what? They're not, and as such I won't buy their third game at all. I'm a lot more willing to put my money into things like Stacking, Dear Esther or similar on Steam and throw the money I saved at projects like the Double Fine Kickstarter Adventure or Wasteland 2 instead. At least they realize that consumers are human beings with needs and wants and not statistics on their latest quarterly figures waiting to be exploited and nothing else.
