Why Is Most DLC Sub-Par?

Hardcore Gamer: With the amount of development focus being placed on DLC, even before the game is finished in some cases, you'd think it would generally be as good as the main game, but that usually isn't the case. So, why exactly is downloadable content of the same quality as the core game such a rarity?

Why is most DLC terrible?
Because there are a lot of terrible people wasting money on terrible DLC.

Sturgeon's Law: 90% of everything is cheap crap.

And yet still, there's a lot of good to appreciate. Left Behind was a good DLC and big standalone adventures like Undead Nightmare are nice. And expansions like Dragonborn add a lot to the experince.

My favorite DLC of all time has to be the Minerva's Den DLC for Bioshock 2, which I honestly beleive is the overall pinnacle of the Bioshock series as a standalone adventure. A 5-hour, $10 DLC with excellent production and unique assets, challenges, and additions over the base game.

To me, I think DLC should be more like "expansion packs" of the late 90's to early 2000's (think: Medal of Honor Allied Assault: Spearhead/Breakthrough, or Command and Conquer Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge).

Additional weapons, skins, and really really minor things should just be called "add-ons".

Aww the horse armor ... we turned out we got plenty of horse armor now.

playing dressing with you character in every fighter all those useless color change, outfit, skin allt he same crap.

Bro missing companions: Legion, Grunt, Samara/Morinth, Javik, EDI

anast452d ago

Legion, Zaeed, and Jack are my favorites.

RiseNShine452d ago

To think that Bioware at some point was capable of doing games like this, you see those characters and remember them like good old friends, and now check ME Andromeda, Anthem, Veilguard etc and wonder what the hell happened.

anast452d ago

They lost too much talent.

IAMRealHooman451d ago

some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier

anast451d ago

"Used To Be A Gold Standard"

And every access game journo helped lower this standard.

isarai870d ago

Seriously, like even to the point of criticizing a game for being complete out the box and not dropping microtransactions on a storefront every month. Outlets were really out here mad that Hogwarts Legacy was finished and didn't need any battle pass, or "seasons" of DLC. So brainwashed they don't even know how to handle a game with an actual ending.

anast870d ago

For sure, and don't forget how "BG3 shouldn't be a new standard".

Cacabunga870d ago

RDR online is also a great deal

The first time I felt like a game got DLC right was Borderlands 1. $10 for hours of content.

isarai870d ago

I paid $5 for Sleeping dogs DLC that added an entire campaign, new fighting styles and weapons, and basically turned the whole City into a zombie survival thing. Then another $5 for a full kickass tournament parading game of death which added an island, and lots of new fighting styles

Soy870d ago

Fallout 3, Mass Effect 2 & 3, Borderlands 1 & 2, GTA IV - those are my gold standards of DLC.

Something they couldn’t even give us in GTAV or RDR2

I honestly thought we’d get some Alien type of DLC for one of them at least
