Those prices are stupid imo, yes its an api upgrade but doesnt need to cost that much.

Agreed. That's not a nice way to screw fans that already bought the game AND all the DLC. Thumbs down!

I really hope those 8 additional GBs of space needed are high resolution textures, better hitboxes and meshes.

Definitely daylight robbery. It's not like Dark Souls II was particularly bad looking, and with the GeDoSaTo update and mods it looked gorgeous. Now it's the price of a full price game even if you already own it, and everyone only cares about Bloodborne anyway.

It's definitely worthy of purchase, but it was already a bit of a quick cash in compared to how good DS1 was, so this only exacerbates that problem.

Seems to be the way most devs are going with games of late, like Kunos charging us £10.99 to add 10 cars, AWD support, DX11 and the Nurbergring to Assetto Corsa, which to be honest is just down right cheeky considering the lack of content in the vanilla game..

If they would do this to DS1 so I don't have to deal with Blighttown aka fps town, I'd be half inclined to actually buy it. But for DS2 no way, I haven't even finished it, got bored halfway, whereas DS1 I've finished a couple of times.

Why? Why? What is the differences between DX9 and DX11? The game is fast enough in DX9. Tessellation and enhanced shadows in DX11? That is "current gen" right? Why $10 difference? Is it a separate build? Why not just make it one and automatically use DX11 if your graphics card can? Are they trying to be fair to those who can't? Pay less if you can't use current gen?

So that 10 buck is for those who can buy DX11 graphics card, letting them enjoy current gen features. The old gen gamers who still own a DX9 graphics card can also play the game too with less cost. Imo, fair enough.

Yey, more money-grabbing devs shafting those who bought the game. And we on PC get left out on Bloodborne? I am starting to think we are just here for devs to harvest.

Bloodborne not coming to other platforms is only due to Sony being the publisher, just like it was for Demon's Souls.

releases 1st April.. the pricing on this feels *almost* like an April fools

 

[Oseth]

I will pick it up if it's only $20 but if its higher then forget about it.
