Yup bonkers, it's why I don't wholly get DLC to some extent, I think the only time I have likely appreciated dlc is with the witcher 3 and that's because they were essentially additional games. As with all things though people just accept it as the norm and there are people that must pay for all the additional crap (in fact for my jrpgs I remember seeing some dlc, can't recall the game but you could pay to have the girls in the team run round in bikini's, I mean wtf is that about?)

Can you imagine if they had that shit back during the NES/Sega glory days? "Did you enjoy the Chrono Trigger? Want to play a New Game+ where you have all the experience, weapons, armor, items etc. for a new game??? Then head over to your local game store and by the password to unlock it in game for $49.99!!!" 🤬

I didn't like Dark Souls 2 - horrendous hitboxes, worse movement and combat mechanics, terrible enemy placement and quantity in many areas, some really poor level design in some locations and losing health on death felt brutally unfair. The absence of Hidetaka Miyazaki in a game director role really showed and the senior game designers that oversaw the project missed the key points of what made the original so special and instead infuriated players with cheap difficulty aspects on top of sloppy mechanics.

My latest purchase, it has sat in my local CEX for a little while but i havent had the spare cash to pick it up til now ^_^

I'm currently reading through the latest DnD book Journey to the Radiant Citadel, and also The Tibetan Book of the Dead, Martyr by Anthony Ryan and Will Save The Galaxy For Cash by Yahtzee Crowshaw.
