[QUOTE=Irishman451;37058002]I don't see why everyone is so upset about having to pay 20$ don't get me wrong I think it should be cheaper,but that's now the going rate for most expansions for games[/QUOTE] Dawnguard is hardly an expansion. It's got a fraction of the content of either Bloodmoon or Shivering Isles. Dawnguard is more like KOTN.
The new vegas expansions were 10$ on release but how much did Oblivions DLC cost when it was released, thats what I want to know.
Ugh, been waiting anxiously for this and when it comes out, it's overpriced.. Ah well.
There is way more content in the New Vegas expansions then in this alone. And I include Honest Hearts, which was absolutely terrible.
[QUOTE=usaokay;37058295]it's $10 on the Xbox. why the fuck is it double on the PC[/QUOTE] 1600 Microsoft points = 20$.
$19.99 is not worth it. $9.99 would be better.
[QUOTE=Rahkshi lord;37057060]Make us wait with bullshit exclusive time, not even a 10% discount for our troubles, This is what makes me mad.[/QUOTE] you are the reason everyone labels PC gamers as over-entitled whiny babies
Ouch 20 bucks? Bethesda, i already over paid by 60 dollars for my collector's edition, i'm not paying 20 bucks for some extra content. You already got more than enough from me.
[QUOTE=IdiotStorm;37058436]you are the reason everyone labels PC gamers as over-entitled whiny babies[/QUOTE] Yes, PC gamers are massive Over-entitled whiny babies because we don't want to overpay for content that the complacent Console crowd buys without even thinking, thus making 4 maps from the last game to become a 15$ dlc, and this to be 20$.
[QUOTE=IdiotStorm;37058436]you are the reason everyone labels PC gamers as over-entitled whiny babies[/QUOTE] I don't know of anyone who lables pc gamers as over entitled. Just elitists, but that much is actually true and i feel that we're allowed to complain seeing as we almost always get the shittiest end of the stick with horrible ports alone.
Well, ill wait till Steam Holiday Sale ( Christman, i guess) arrives.
I think I'll pass, unless I'm practically getting a new game, I'll wait.
[QUOTE=The golden;37058774] Is it really a surprise that PC gamers get really pissy when we get handed the shittiest and of the stick (as said above). We are paying more money for our PC's than a console because we hope for a better gaming experience. What do we get? Console ports, Xbox exclusive deals, more console ports, console ports, and console ports.[/QUOTE] Remember when games were ported FROM PC to Consoles? Those were the days.
[QUOTE=Rahkshi lord;37059001]Remember when games were ported FROM PC to Consoles? Those were the days.[/QUOTE] That was a brief period from 92-3 to 2001-2 or something. Before that, there wasn't even the concept of multi-platform and after that, it was all "But can a pocket-watch run this?" "No" "Then downscale every platform!!!"
20 dollars? jesus christ DLC shouldn't ever be above 10 unless it's a full expansion
There's still parts of Skyrim I still haven't touched, so I'm not really excited enough want more of that game.
why do you make it hard for me to love you bethesda?
I hope this DLC is as good as Horse Armor! Day 1 buy!
25 dollar in Australia we get shafted even more
[editline]2nd August 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=The golden;37058774]This is highly debatable, but I personally think that PC gamers are labeled as self-entitled because we have higher standards than console gamers because (or at least I think) PC gaming is a higher grade of gaming than consoles. Our PC machines cost like triple that of an Xbox, our peripherals are more expensive and flexible, we have massively more choice in peripherals, and our machines are monumentally more powerful than consoles.

[QUOTE=Griml3xx;37057140]$25 here in Australia. I love Bethesda DLC as it's true-DLC and not just new costumes or cars (looking at you SR3) but this is still too expensive for just DLC.[/QUOTE] Me, complains about price - gets it anyway.
I am just going to wait for the GOTY, hopely it will allow people that have skyrim already upgrade for like $20-30. Also at that rate, I hope they pump out more DLCs, good DLCs.

Wow bethesda, why would this be somehow worth such a high pricetag when the main dawnguard questline is something like 6 quests long.
Why is the price a surprise to anyone? I thought we all knew it would be $20 when it was released on the 360 a month or two back.
[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;37062336]Why is the price a surprise to anyone? I thought we all knew it would be $20 when it was released on the 360 a month or two back.[/QUOTE] Because most people, like me, didn't pay any attention at all to the 360 release.
played it on friends 360, was extremely boring.
[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;37062336]Why is the price a surprise to anyone? I thought we all knew it would be $20 when it was released on the 360 a month or two back.[/QUOTE] Because a) fuck paying attention to the XBOX version if you don't have the XBOX Skyrim b) apparently it's logical for 1600 points to represent 20 dollars. Not 16 dollars, not 8 dollars, but 20. c) whether we're surprised or not, the price is still too much.
[QUOTE=meatballfish;37056378]20 dollars for 5-6 hours of content? No thanks. It does look like fun though. But I've got to save for Dishonored and Planetside 2.[/QUOTE] 20 dollars for the amount of content a 60 dollar game gives you nowadays oh ok also planetside 2 is free. [editline]3rd August 2012[/editline] also this is an expansion they've always cost a lot, it's nothing new you guys have no reason to complain
[QUOTE=Kai-ryuu;37062906]played it on friends 360, was extremely boring.[/QUOTE] So it's just like the rest of the game?
