minus-squaregivesomefucks@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up17arrow-down1·edit-215 days agoYeah, probably fine. But it’s still good to get a public reaction against shady money grabs. It’s not like this is an indie game from an unheard of studio, it’s going to do fine and recover later. But the backlash to DLC is heard by every studio/publisher. And may effect the ones doing real shady shit. Also: Portrait packs are like the easiest mods. So I’m sure by the time the game is released this will be a mod that’s free.
