Your post reeks of irony. You sound like a foolish child to accept this atrocious price for the 'complete' game that they already had before release. NRS and Ed Boon are crooks.
The only issue is that if you wish to play competitively, you basically have to learn much of each character. Without having them to mess around with in practice, it's harder. I mean, I plan to spend the reasonably priced (in my opinion) $30 for the Kombat Pack but I do understand the struggle of other people. There's bills and shit lol
5 skin packs? each pack with 3 skins?
People be spending $200+ to go to events and shit but complain about an extra 30 bucks to make sure you don't waste your money when you get there lol
Well shit, everybody wants it to be cheaper...but it's not. Might as well get the Kombat Pack because it'll be cheaper in the long run if you want all the skins and stuff. It's just how I see it. We can't make it cheaper so might as well make the best of what we got, ya know?
We can't make it cheaper but instead of eating it up with a shit eating grin while NRS laughs we can tell them to not pull this shit with us. They were heiled as the counter to Crapcom (I say that lightly and in character in this moment) with their patching and DLC innovations of last generation. Here they have the same strategy but this time are milking it a little too much (a lot) for my liking.
Thats funny because I would have countered with how games made it to release completed just fine for 20+ years before capitalist strategies strangled the industry to the shitheap it is today.
I just don't see this being any different from MK9's pack deal.
I didn't because there is enough BS on forums now days. But it's been a long time since big titles didn't milk the DLC cow. The writing has been on the wall for years and you're fooling yourself if you think otherwise. They wouldn't still be doing it if people didn't buy it. It's the future of gaming and you either embrace it, or whine endlessly. Everyone knows it's kinda Bullshit, like paying extra for cheese, but it's we we're at now. Besides as far as DLC goes what else were you going to spend $30 on? A couple pizza's, alcohol or personal refreshments, I mean LBSH. Unless you have terribad management of your money it shouldn't be an issue for something so important, I mean you're here aren't you? Also not buying the premium editions has never once lessened my enjoyment of a title. But I also don't have special snowflake syndrome either which is rampant in gaming.
