When you pay for content you should be given access to that content unless you are knowingly leasing a changing product.
Minecraft, terraria etc, they said they were doing that going in.
More and more games are however overhauling systems, alienating their previous fanbase in order to appeal to a different crowd *cough swg cough*
A not as accurate comparison as that is subscription based but there is the base install content cost, and there was no indication of the direction of the game to the changes it made...If they already have the money from the people who would buy the game because it was this one thing, they think the next thing to do is appeal to a new group of people to get a new source of funds. Its a bit silly.
That said shouldnt the artist feel they have the right to complete a work they felt was incorrect at first?
But then shouldnt the artist had waited to release it for until the work was complete in the first place?
A fun brown townogy. You buy a rocking chair for $60. When you get home theres a bunch of issues, splinters and sorts, and the next day the chair maker knocks on your door requesting to come in and repair your chair. "its our bad, its on us" So you let em in , make them lemonade and enjoy the chair afterwards
only a week later they knock, "hey the chair was supposed to be blue"
Ok so you let em in, the chair is now blue, whatever I guess its a feature they forgot to package into it initially?
Next week they come in with a huge box of tools and electronics "Sorry something broke here were going to have to overhaul how this part works" You are like well hold on there "nope sorry you already bought the chair so unless you want to avoid all further updates and move your house or something we are going to fix this here chair"
You then have some hardly working reclining chair with no rocking any more, and no arms.
Well at least its interesting, its still a chair and you can relax I suppose...
Next week Chair DLC is released. You had noticed the no arms thing and thought that might have been a mistake they would get around to. "Hey so give us another $10 and you can have these super delux drinkholder armrests"
But you want just like your old chair that had boring old wood arms
"No sorry you'll just have to use your current chair until you can pay the dlc cost"
Doesn't make sense as a business model, except in when you keep people uninformed about this. They see the problems in this product and are very quick to jump to the next improved version to get rid of the issues that are plaguing them currently, which is a sensible reaction when you dont realize you are wasting more money than if you had just built a chair yourself.
Not to mention someone has to pay for the internet for every update, so they are unnessisarily increasing the strain upon a crowded and energy consumatory system.
*A post has been posted review blah blahi have played the original swg
