The game is not even out yet! Why are they announcing DLC? This just makes it feel like they cut a chunk of the game to sell later.
It's not "feel like...", it's a "proven fact". They want you to pay for base game and DLC. I wonder If they are going with a $80 price, perhaps $100 with DLC.
I'm considering cancealing my preorder, this is so insanely pathetic it physically hurts.
The biggest media franchise ever, I guess they really need that extra money to survive, poor guys =/
They need to pay their lawyers to bully Pocket Pair into submission. Absurd.
I was on the fence because I didn't think it looked as good as PLA but this knocked me off it entirely
Honestly I hope this is the least successful Pokemon game. Between it just generally not looking like a very interesting game, and Nintendo clearly deciding to make paid DLC at the same time as they are making the game, rather than making extra content to sell after the game is already finished, thereby simply cutting out content from the game to sell shortly later for a bunch of extra money, hopefully fans don't put up with this mess and send Nintendo a message.
You and me both. Same reason I refuse to ever see another Disney remake.
$70 for the Switch 2 version... Plus $20 for a DLC that's announced before the game releases???
I already thought this looked worse than Legends Arceus but JESUS
I'm out yall, have fun
That’s crazy, hope this doesn’t set precedent, also is this the first Nintendo game to announce day one DLC?
Which is still better than the Pokemon Legends Z-A situation.
True, although I don't appreciate DLC in 2 months after launch either for a full priced game.
DLC before the game is even released is just pathetic. Like Disney live action remake levels of pathetic.
It's time we start boycotting greedy and corrupt Nintendo until they get their shits together, haven't given money to Nintengreed in almost a year now!
Not very excited for the game but now Raichu my boy getting two really cool megas!
Good to see they can still create some really good designs.
One of those Raichus should have been a Gorochu.
