>some companies choose to innovate
>while others put in naked ladies and blood and gore in order to appeal to horny teenage boys
Really makes you think, doesn't it?
>>339546856
weak bait, try again
>>339546705
What game is overwatch DLC for?
What game is street fighter 5 DLC for?
What game is splatoon DLC for?
>>339546563

He is right.
The plot is bland and the characters are forgettable.

you're missing the point you dumb fuck
It's called expansions, back in the day we used to get them instead of dlcs
>>339547317
>Acting like thats true
>Even if it was that had nothing to do with the game being for teens
fuck right off

I've been making lots of sushi lately, so sleep tight mollusc
Also, if we're doing a DLC thread. I just want to point out that The Division has been pumping out constant updates since release and with each one is has gotten progressively better. Not to mentionit's all free. Granted, most stuff they are adding should have been in the game already at launch. But if they've already done this good a job I can't wait to see how their actual planned DLC will be.
>>339546172
So you mean shitty, empty "open world" which consist of forests and hills, with the same terrible gameplay and downgraded graphics DLC?
>>339546563
Battlefield: Hardline
>>339546172
Sorry, what was that you were saying?
>>339547594
Expansions are downloadable. Expansions sre content.
Expansions are DLCs.
>>339547730
>So you mean shitty, empty "open world"
Name a game with a better open world
>>339547594
holy shit this
Am I really that old? Do you chucklefucks not know what 'expansions' were?
>>339547553

Fucking /THREAD
I misse the days when "Expansion Packs" were a thing before the internet became so big that they became "DLCs" and devoloper stopped giving a shit
Remember when games had free content come with a patch? Fun times
>>339547594
It's the same shit.
is it just me or does the game actually look better?
>>339547885
GTA:SA
>>339547885
Why? Open world games tend to be shit because they consist of doing irrelevent, mundane exploring or side quests. A good RPG focuses on the main plot and doesn't add shitty filler content
>>339546563
star wars battle front
>>339546563
Dead Island Riptide.
>>339546563
I guess Assassins Creed, Call of Duty, FIFA and yearly releases in general.
The changes from year to year in FIFA can't really be considered a dlc even, maybe a medium-sized patch.
>>339548019
Nowadays Its like this
Expansions are generally close to a min of 10 hours, sometimes adding stuff like a story, othertimes fixing or adding to the entire game
DLC is just a couple hours at most and doesn't do a whole lot in the grand scheme of things
>>339548115
And yet If it isn't open world, the game gets demonized for being linear.
Go fuck yourself.
>>339546563

>>339547573
you missed my point, you dolt
>>339546563
Left4Dead 2
>>339548019
Yes and no. DLC became the general term for any extra content, from a 5 dollar new title screen track to a 15 dollar expansion of the game.
Expansions before Oblivion had expectations, DLCs seem to have little expectations in comparison to expansions in the past.
>>339548249
There's nothing inherently wrong with linearity. Early golden-era PS1 and SNES RPG's linear as fuck yet still had more engaging plot and characters than most games today (including your precious Bitcher)
>>339548115
Side quests are literally the best parts of both Oblivion and witcher
>>339548093
Fun as fuck, but that was also my first GTA. Don't remember doing a whole lot of stuff though. Still, not a lot to do besides run people over IIRC
>>339546563
Borderlands Pre-Sequel
Speaking of which I wonder when will they tease DaSIII first DLC pack, probably at E3, Souls games DLC is always pretty good, so DaSIII shouldn't be any different.

Linearity is only bad if its like Uncharted or some shit
>>339546819

>>339548246
Because the graphics sucked so bad back then it only took a week to make ten hours worth of content. Throw some Sprite together, write "ho heroes, I need your prowess for my quest," throw some shityy monsters together in a shitty dungeon, boom. Nerds pay big bucks for some shit you barely worked on. You could even use shitty repeating wall textures and enemy reskins and the nerds wouldn't care. So of course nowadays DLC's are shorter and takes more time. Because they're harder to make. All you nostalgia shitheads should just go kill yourself, that way you can play 16 bit shits in your fantasy forever.

All multiplayer-only games

Witcher is a better story than Thrones. Both the books, and the game vs. the show. Fight me.
>>339546563
Straight up Saint's Row 4, they didn't even hide it.
>joke about how it's a trap pre-release
>it's actually a trap
bravo, cdpr
>entire game is use detective vision to follow a trail of blood and sausages then using two attack buttons while rolling around and occasionally using one of 5 magic spells which is restricted even further because you're only going to want to use the ones you've upgraded
You pretty much know what the gameplay of the entire thing will be within the first half-hour. It's really sad because if the combat and RPG mechanics were good then the game would absolutely be GOAT.
>>339546172
>TFW bought the Witcher 3 but never played it.
Gah, I'm missing out.
>>339548574
That's a weird pick considering Uncharted 4 is way more open than your average TPS.
>>339546563
Destiny.
>>339549007
birds arent traps
>>339549402
Get out
The game may have more gameplay than the others, but its still not what it should be. Fucking hell, the fact that its gets such praise scares me
How many sex scenes does B&W get?
>>339549007
that beard shadow is quite obvious, anon
>>339549487
>implying it's not a metaphore
>>339546172
>make a full game and call it dlc
You mean an expansion pack?
>>339549007
>that 5 o'clock shadow
>>339550637
And how many games still get those "Throne of Bhaal"-sized expansions like BnW?inb4 Fallout 3 - New Vegas
