  • I get your point too, bud, and for accuracy: I was not saying they haven’t “addressed any of the concerns”, my problem is with the latest paid ‘expansion’ and the definition of the word DLC. I do sincerely hope that given the time they can reach No Man’s sky redemption level, but I’m not holding my breath. I also believe that there has been a semantics shift in how AAA is spinning a lot of rushed games these days which is getting a pass by many gamers and it really sucks for the future of the industry. To me bug fixes are not DLC, those are patches or hotfixes not downloadable content. I know that you understand that; however, the problem I have is that Marcin promised it to be free (and I can’t arsed to find the quote, so this was maybe my own mishearing at the time so you can get me there if that was the case), and you can argue that “no, he just meant the patches or some minor additions” but to myself at the time -and I’m pretty sure I wasn’t the only one- though the DLC (i.e Expansions) were going to be free by way of apology and regain some of the trust back. You can say that’s naive or unrealistic, but this release has cured me of the preorder hype bus forever and given me a healthy dose of skepticism for all AAA releases, particularly from CDPR from now on. There are better games to spend my time looking for Easter eggs and that’s just my opinion.
