Getting unique stuff from expansion packs or new campaigns I get. But a cash shop that sells stuff you can't ever earn ingame is dogshit on principle even if it's only cosmetic.

Meh, it doesnt bother me, but maybe thats because it also doesnt really interest me. Maybe if there was something that I did really want, I might feel differently.

Meh, as long as they put the money back into the games. If some rube wants to spend hundreds of dollars on new hats and that means I get free map packs or something, go for it.

Odyssey has a currency you can earn in game that can be spent at this one shop which sells cosmetic dlc items. The shop only sells like one of the dlc items a week but it changes which one is for sale. Or you can pay real money to buy the cosmetic dlc.

How can someone get mad about cosmetic DLC LMFAO

Like wow. I thought this was one thing we were all in agreement with.

You know games cost money to develop, right? You know these businesses aren't charities, right?

Some people man. Lmao.

The cancer is loot boxes and pay to win. But some people here are so backwards (apparently) that they will probably defend p2w and attack cosmetic DLC.

Holy crap some people will never be happy. Oh wait, just saw your username. Troll probably. Who would ever call themselves King White Knight? Blocked.

Are you having a seizure or you parodying dumb people?

I got the platinum in that game and I got 100 percent in every single DLC and I was never awarded helix credits or whatever they're called. How do you get them?

They need money. They're a business.

Also, because people online like to take things to the extreme I'm gonna say in advance I don't support shit like EA with Battlefront. However cosmetic DLC harms nobody.

Some of you just seem to want everything for free.

In ac odyssey, you can earn the dlc currency, orichalcum, by completing the daily quest(x10 each), weekly quests(x40 each), or by finding them in the over world. Unsurprisingly, a map of the locations of orichalcum isnt included in the base game, but for sale for $3.99.

Since the inventory of the in game dlc item merchant changes each tues(w the high probability of repeats of the same items again and again), youre only limited to what they choose to give you and you have to jump through flaming hoops to actually get them

Ah, I see. No wonder people were farming that stuff. I was happy with the armor they already had in the game (and the horse skins.)

The dlc armor was cool and new enough to me and I had a blast with the content.

Look at every outfit in the base game of odyssey as an example. All ugly reskins, while all the ones in the store are unique and are worth wearing. The quality of the base game cosmetics goes down once you try to nickel and dime people on dlc

A lot of the armor did look the same yeah, but I enjoyed a lot of it too. Nickle and diming on purpose is a little scummy, but it's still Nickle and diming. It's cheap. These businesses are always gonna be "evil" to some degree because they want money. And this is the far lesser of two evils.

I remember when cosmetics were just something you unlocked in games. Super Mario Odyssey is a good modern example of unlockables in games

This. Whining about cosmetic dlc is pretty useless in comparison.

most games compete with other titles in the same genre. alt costumes used to be standard in 3d fighters until fuckcom decided to sell that shit in sf4. thanks to anti consumer doormats defending their bullshit, it's infected other franchises too.

In all the games like this I've seen the stuff in the store is over the top gaudy junk and the diversity in the base game is fine, it just looks boring compared to neon fruit bowl hats.

Yeah, this. I remember the golden days of Street Fighter Alpha 2 where everybody in game had 6 outfits-- admittedly some of them were palette swaps, but now it would be $29.99 for a seasonal DLC pack of outfits.

Eh i dont really care about that since most games dont force you to buy it. Like Destiny for example. You can buy shaders, ornaments, dances, etc. It doesnt effect your in game leveling.

Then you have games like GTA, NBA 2K, FIFA. Where you can get an advantage based off how much youre willing to spend

they're like a buck each, but it's the principle of the thing. I shouldn't have to pay for stuff that has no real effect in-game other than appearance
