DuneMan 02/18/21 9:17:56 AM #18:	The problem is that there's an inherent conflict of interest when it comes to season passes. On one hand, the publisher has your money NOW. If they develop robust content for the season pass they LOSE some of that money for the sake of development costs. So as a corporation you can count on the publisher to: do the barest minimum still acceptable to most folks in order to churn the most profit for shareholders. --- "I'd rather betray the world than let the world betray me." -Cao Cao <cite>DuneMan posted [p:950786042] in What game ...

Mr_Karate_II 02/18/21 10:05:48 AM #22:	People blindly buy season passes and wonder why companies pull this bullshit. If people would stop buying season passes then companies would realize they can't pull this bullshit and wouldn't release half of the content. Most games aren't worth $60 because most of the time you're not even getting the full game then you have to buy a stupid season pass to get content that was cut which could be another $60. --- Currently Playing: Resident Evil 4 Mercenaries Mode,Resident Evil 6 Mercenaries Mode & Call of Duty Ghosts <cite>Mr_Karate_II posted [p:950787547] in What game ...
