So the game adds 3 new characters, and then I have to buy the rest as DLC?
Why couldn't they have just put them all up as DLC for the god damn original game and released a balance patch? This is such a money grab.
Because they weren't done in time? Placeholder data is on the disc but characters aren't. They released gameplay for Makoto around CS's Japanese release and she looked buggy as all hell. There's nothing at all, not even release dates for the other two.
They could either have delayed the game or the go with this more logical option. Release the three characters that aren't done via DLC. The beauty of it is that if you have no desire to play as any of them, you don't have to download them. And for the people that do they end up paying barely over the normal price of a game these days to get all 3. It's a pretty sweet deal if you ask me.
