Very interesting indeed, to hear what people inside the industry have to say themselves about dlcs.

I agree it did start as a great idea I remember back then when I looked forward for DLC announcements. Now I get the announcement while the game is being actively developed. Also another thing that makes me shed a tear was the loss of unlockable content during the very end of the ps2 era unlockables were a plenty now with DLC full mainstream/business model unlockables dont exist as much anymore and items need to be bought with real cash dont even get me started with the whole using real money to have digital money in game.
