OverTheEdge Posted October 7, 2014 Author Posted October 7, 2014 I do understand why someone like Paige is exclusive to the Season Pass, completely. They have to include something/someone that people want to draw you into buying it. It's an incentive to make people buy it, I for one will definitely be buying the season pass for Paige, and for everything else included. If they included someone like Virgil for instance, would you rush to buy it? No. Paige is relevant, people want her in their game, so they will buy the season pass, simple as that. Yup. Perfectly explained. While we don't know who will be a part of the three DLC rivalries, Paige at the very least is their main incentive to by the Season Pass. Quote

I'd get adding new people they couldn't get but this is just like Drew McIntyre in WWE 13. Again, it's not a cheap move. It's a smart move on their part. You have to try and see it from the company's point of view. Quote

I generally get where you're coming from; however, good thing or not, it's a company's job to make as much money as they can. If they don't, they're only hurting their chances of staying in business, i.e. THQ. As far as this specifically goes, it's hardly corporate greed. They're providing a product you can't get anywhere else. You either choose to buy it or you don't. Quote

And that is the goal of pretty much every company now. They have to make money, it's just how it works. It's not forcing people to buy it, you do or you don't.

Jules145 Posted October 7, 2014 Posted October 7, 2014 damn 25 bucks for season pass it seems to go up by 5 bucks each year. so that is 60 for the game and 25 for SP enjoy spending 85 bucks on this game total. Yes but this is definitely going to be worth it. Unlike previous years, we paid for only characters, arenas, attires and moves. They are giving us more feuds with plenty of matches, more superstars, tons of attires, more moves (Hopefully), and more arenas. This Pass is definitely going to be worth the money if that is the case. Quote

The 4th Doctor Posted October 7, 2014 Posted October 7, 2014 watch each year the Season pass will go up by 5 bucks. 2k16 Season pass 30 2k17 Season pass 35 2k18 Season pass 40 etc Quote

Do you do whatever your job is for free? Of course not. It's a two-way street, dude. How do you expect a company, with however many employees it has necessary to produce a product, to say afloat and produce said product if they're not making any money? They 'help' you by making the game. You 'help' them by buying it. And, yeah, communism vs. capitalism is far from the point of this thread. So let's get things back on topic, as I really don't feel like cleaning up this entire page. Quote
Jules145 Posted October 7, 2014 Posted October 7, 2014 I don't understand the hate over this. Its a business. Its a way of making money. Yet, they are giving us more feuds with the usual stuff we get every year (Superstars, attires, moves, arenas, etc.) with the same price. You either buy it or you don't. The complaining is unnecessary. Quote

Ballard Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 I'll just be getting the $80 digital deal then if they put it on Xbox. I'm sure the three new rivalries will bring in a ton of new characters too. Quote

So let's get things back on topic, as I really don't feel like cleaning up this entire page. I don't think you're quite grasping two things. What off-topic is and what people are complaining about. Talking about DLC and how you either agree or don't agree with it, is not off-topic. Not sure how you're wrapping your head around your argument, but whatever. The DLC is more expensive, yet there doesn't seem to be more value in it, therefore people are upset. Lets look at it this way. If you spent $25 on a game and got JUST the content that was in the DLC, you'd be pretty disappointed, right? Then, how does it add-on content make it more valuable? If I were to spent basically half of the cost of the game on content, I'd expect a lot more than just a few new wrestlers and rivalries. God forbid that content isn't anywhere near hard to make after the groundwork has been done within the original game. We all know companies do this to make money, yes, we're not retards; don't treat us as such. It's the business of games in today's economic climate. Just because it is somewhat necessary, doesn't mean everyone has to be happy about it. Edited October 8, 2014 by Fozy 1 Quote

No, you're right, talking about this game's DLC isn't off-topic at all. However, the discussion had far degenerated past that and into the practices and general ethics behind the concept of DLC itself, and then at some point I think 'society' as a whole was even brought up. So, yeah, things were beginning to stray just a bit. Quote
