Please no paid cosmetic DLC

purifyweirdshard Brent, I wholeheartedly hope that you're right and I won't argue against what you said. That's not what I'm here for. I have said what I needed to say and will leave it at that. I'm still not happy about the choice and about how and when they communicated it but I can appreciate your viewpoint of hoping for more RotN content than originally promised even if I personally would have preferred it if they wrapped it up after completing the stretch goals so they could start making that sequel ^^

The people who are working on the Switch version bugs/fixes aren't doing much/anything with creating assets/graphics. This is for the future and isn't taking away from that effort, which is what the teams are focused on right now (current release improvements).

Microtransactions are when the game asks or forces you to buy something to get you through the game or that allows you access to in-game currency via your real $. Cosmetics/skins don't fall under that. "Pay to win" also isn't much of a factor that would apply to a game like this.

I'm all for it because I want to see some of these things, but also because I like supporting them and trust them with the money to do the right things with it. The track record has been clearly positive with that so far (to me/my experience, I know this is not the case with everyone).

I can kind of see the completionist argument, but to say that they're "only selling it to milk completionists" is going a bit far. I don't think it would bump up the % possible and be counted as extra, such as with the code items. You can't have all possible color/hair choices of Miriam at all times, either, and that's fine too. "If it exists, I must have it", is a matter of being OCD and not something the game/content delivery model should be faulted for, imo, when it doesn't count against/for your official completion. Wonder how many DOA players were able to survive being like that heh. Not all things are for all people, and if this isn't for you, I think it should be ignored while other people can consume it and fund more (free) Bloodstained.

I think the game is selling incredibly, but it's also going to be costly still to make free DLC for the next x amount of time that they're planning to, and then however long it takes for the sequel. ArtPlay specifically doesn't have any cash flow besides Bloodstained - this is it, they don't have money funneling in from other projects and things that they've done as if they're all big name Konami employees still, on a set and guaranteed payroll because they're so big and can be put on other things whenever. There are no other things.

Anyway, the main idea here, as the survey says, is to have folks pay for non-essential things to make essential things free (in addition to the already-promised 13 free DLCs). I think people are missing this, because I think I even did or read over that the first time? haha. I was at work and wanted to click my outfits, leave me alone

It's painfully obvious that there's some content that was left on the cutting room floor. Areas/enemies/etc.

I'm of the mind that most of the enemies dug up in datamines will probably be used for alt modes in the future.

If not though, and if paid DLC must be a thing, I'd rather just see some cut areas and enemies get brought back in. I couldn't care less about just buying random items. The whole point of the game is exploring and finding new items. Just buying some kills the entire concept of the game.

This is sort of off on a tangent, but the survey is unusable by anyone that doesn't have a google account for security/privacy reasons.
