Rockstar Games are once again answering their fans concerns via their Rockstar Newswire, and from Mouthoff, Twitter and Facebook.
"It's sad that all this content could not be free. I already
paid for the game (and many did too) and I have to pay 30 more bucks to
have all DLCs ? That's how the game industry work in these days. It's
just sad that Rockstar (best video game studio ever, by the way) had to
take the same path...” - DonPascualino
"The zombies pack sounds like it actually adds a lot, yet it's
the same price as the Legends and Killers, which should have been 5
bucks. It really didn't add a whole lot for the asking price. I was
afraid that all the add-ons would be 10 dollars each, almost totaling
the original game price, and it looks like that's exactly what's
happening, just because.” - KwietStorm
We completely understand that everyone likes getting something for free –
as do we! And we’re trying to do our part to give you as many freebie
bonus goodies as we possibly can such as the Outlaws to the End Co-Op
Missions Pack and the forthcoming Hunting and Trading Outfits Pack and
Marshals Outfits unlock. But we hope that you can appreciate that our
paid DLC Packs such as Legends and Killers and Liars and Cheats contain a
ton of brand-new features that have been carefully designed and
developed from scratch. We began to plan the DLC before the original
game was released, but a long time after it was content complete. In the
case of Legends and Killers for example, months of game design and
development work were required to tailor all nine maps to be great
Competitive Multiplayer arenas for people to play in – not to mention
meticulous design, code and testing for features like the Tomahawk
weapon and its related Challenges, and all of the rest of the content in
the pack. We always aim to give you top value with our games and our
DLC releases and we hope to be keeping you very happily entertained with
future Red Dead Packs. Paid DLC is a contentious issue, but we believe
our approach – of giving good content at a fair price - helps fans
prolong a gaming experience and is not a case of gouging the most
important people – our fans – for a few extra bucks. |
