Monolithic0117 Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Today a new DLC was announced, titled "Return to Ostagar. It'll be released sometime in the "holiday season", and sells for 5$, which equals about 400 BioWare Points. Description Link Official Forum topic I'll definitely be getting this, as the sum of 5$ is pretty much spare change for me. Who else will be purchasing this?
kevinwastaken Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 $5 is nothing but as I wouldn't pay $5 to eat a turd sandwich I won't pay $5 for some nonsensical game add-on.
JimboUK Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 It's not expensive but if they're going to keep doing this then it will add up to quite a bit, unless it gets rave reviews from players I won't be bothering.
falls Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 hmm i'm wondering what they mean with holiday season. xmas or next summer?
Monolithic0117 Posted November 20, 2009 Author Posted November 20, 2009 hmm i'm wondering what they mean with holiday season. xmas or next summer? This winter. I disagree with the negative comments, because I myself don't see what there is to complain about. 5$ for a moderate-sized amount of new content is reasonable to me, and the ones who don't want to buy shouldn't ruin it for others. I'm saying because there's a dozen threads full of unreasonable complaints in the official forums.
leapinglizard Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 I wont be purchasing either, considering the dramas ive had with stone prisoner and blood dragon. I'll wait for the game of the year edition and get them all at once at a store. I hate this dlc stuff with its registrations and must be connected to the internet to validate etc etc.

The op asked "What do you think?" and people on both sides chose to be abusive instead of discussing it like adults. It makes you wonder how many children are playing what is supposed to be an adult game. Personally I couldn't give a monkeys what people choose to spend their money on, it's their business.

It's minimal sized.2) Are you so emotionally fragile that someone merely stating their opinion ruins an experience for you?

You can't estimate it with the price or the information so far.2) And yes, after reading page after page of trash, I do get fed up with the worthless complaints.Something constructive would be a refreshing change. Juxtaposing the DLC with a "turd sandwich" is not constructive, mind you.
Astrolopolis Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 If I spend five bucks on this DLC and have two hours fun with it, I've spent about $30 less than if I went to a movie and had a pop and a popcorn - and that would only be 90 minutes fun. You can't even play miniature golf for two hours with $5. I like cheap fun - bring on the DLC! Astro
