I feel like the people who play Train Simulator and buy the DLC, don't really play other games. They are just big time train spotters slowly building a collection of trains they like or have seen.
50 years ago they bought models and built miniature settings in the basement/attic... i can say this because i come from a city famous for the largest model train store in N. America (and converse shoes) and ive been to the store. they've literally lost 75% of business to the sim games (all thats left are the old guys that started before 2010s).
@Sonic yea man, theres loads. As I said, I dont think they appeal to "gamers" directly but to people who are just fans of that thing. I bet theres loads of retired blokes having a great time in Euro Truck Driving Simulator treating it like an actual job. More power to em.
I just miss buying a game and getting the full game, not having 50% of the game and the rest being behind a paywall of Pre Orders, Expansion Passes, Season Passes, DLC and who knows what else. 🥲🥲
I would put Dead or Alive 5 at # 1 or # 2. The game has so many DLCs that it has hit the PS3 and 360 limit and more DLCs have appeared on the PS4. Believe if you buy all the DLC there you also have a 4-digit amount.
Ngl, I'm holding off on the game on PS4 entirely because I know modders will eventually get there, it'll cost over 2000 where I stay and that's not really an option
@@Richtor do you mean remastered? its most likely because it underpreformed and was technically the last game by pandemic even though they own it they have nothing invested in it. the remaining staff at pandemic that was forced to push it out had to do that abysmal voice acting themselves. Bottom line is they dont see any financial gain otherwise they would.
ok... but would you like to comment on the shitty DLC that the video is about? I love how he goes out of his way to state "ITS OK, ITS NOT GREAT, BUT ITS NOT HORRIBLE" and i see posts like this lmao
I understand why no one remembers anything else about the Saboteur's "online pass" (in an entirely offline game), but it did come with a gold plated car as well. That car had no armor and was pretty much useless, so it was somehow even worse than horse armor.
Ben actually undersold Train Sim, it's $10,373 total... but hey if you want every single spaceship in MMO Star Citizen they have the handy Legatus Pack for just $27,000, though apparently you have to have put at least $1K into the game already so they know you're good for it.
Haven't watched this video yet (doing it now!) but whenever I see these lists, I HAVE to mention Magna Carta 2! That DLC was REQUIRED to get all of the achievements and it's nothing more than some "cutscenes"--if you consider watching two characters talk to each other a cutscene. You get the Achievements for watching them. I skipped the cutscenes because they were so bad...and still got the Achievements!
I kinda enjoyed Lost Archive, despite its flaws, that said it does also have *one* whole extra mission for the main game, where you get Vlad the Impallers sword thats it
i actually didnt mind the easy fatalities in mortal kombat. you cant pause to look them up in online match but im super casual in mk 11 so i dont win very often. i guess i could just not pay to look them up on youtube because when you do a fatality you have already won the match. the finishing move is really just about seeing it
The main problem is that TTK not only forced people who bought the game to pay for content they had already owned but they also forced veteran players to buy that and the DLC for the price of a full game, so you basically had to buy Destiny twice without any options for just getting the DLC.
The reason why Asura's Wrath's ending was DLC is because it was originally meant to be a full blown sequel to the game. But because the game sold poorly, it was decided that a sequel wasn't worth the investment, and so the ideas for the sequel got reworked into DLC.
What did the Taken king take out? I remember you could sometimes not do the nightfall when it was a dlc strike, but did it really take out parts of the game? It’s been a while, and i remember it as the first really great destiny dlc.
The dlc increased the minimum level to do a strike. You could only reach that minimum level with the dlc, without it the max level of base game allowed is lower than the minimum level needed
Games like Risk of Rain 2 do it right: a couple years of great big free content updates, before eventually releasing DLC with even more content that truly is optional, and targeted at people who’ve already played the game to death.
The thing about Train Simulator's DLC is that, unlike most games, you're not supposed to buy ALL OF IT. It's a simulator, and those routes/trains take a lot of time and resources to simulate accurately. Train Simulator players don't just fork over $10k for every item listen, they only pay for and download the routes/trains that interest them. Other simulators, like iRacing, have a similar pricing model. For example, I live in northern Illinois and there's a route featured that I bought because it's one I've ridden on several times. The Sims DLC would've honestly been a better choice here, because EA releases tons of packs and all they end up including is some furniture, clothes and maybe some new occupations for Sims, something you could probably mod into the game for free.
If my very quick math is correct, Train Stimulator 2021 and all of its its DLC constitutes about 1.5% of the cost of the *entire* Steam library. And then you've got TS2020, 2019, etc as part of that remaining 98.5%. Absolutely insane.
The DLC for Asura's Wrath was meant to be for a sequel but since it wasn't gonna happen, CyberConnect2 to quickly wrap up the story so there would be no one would be demanding a sequel.
i remember i got the ultimate shortcut bundle in battlefield one because i watched videos on all the other weapons and thought i gotta have that. once i had it, all motivation to keep playing ended. it really is soul crushing, its not satisfying in the slightest
I mean, to be fair to the Train Simulator, you don't NEED to buy all the DLC, there's still plenty of stuff in the base game and it's fine if you view it as a virtual Hornby set, it's just for train nerds who might want to play specific routes or drive specific models of train. And yes, I did want to drive an Inter-City 125 when I was a child, though I didn't have a poster of one...
I quite liked the Assassin's Creed: Revelations DLC, I feel like the modern day story in the AC games so underrated. Seriously, some of the plots in the older Assassin's Creed games were overcomplicated political messes. As much as I loved them, they could be very difficult to understand and the modern day arc was a refreshing return to normalcy.
Oblivion's Horse armor is affordable and reasonable compared to most modern cosmetic DLCs. We live in an era were companies charge $20-40 for a color on a weapon.
The thing is about the Battlefield 4 shortcuts it seems like the only people who care about its existence are people who don't play the game. Never seen a Battlefield player get angry over someone else paying money to unlock guns they'll barely use.
that one Prince of Persia game comes to mind too as like with Asura's Wrath the devs decided to hide the actual ending behind a paywall thanks to that boneheaded mistake there hasn't been any new Prince of Persia games released (not counting a recent remake lol)
Fallout 3's DLC is also a good fit for a list like this: (Slight Spoilers for Fallout 3's ending) Basically, at the end of the game you have to perform a certain action that costs your character his/her life. Now the issue isn't so much the sacrifice itself, tragic endings for protagonists can be amazing and memorable, It's the fact that your character really didn't need to die since there's a companion you can send to perform said action thus sparing your life. Said companion doesn't die so it's an overall better result for everyone involved. Thing is, you couldn't send the companion to do that action in the base game. Why? Hell if I know, maybe Bethesda thought their precious tragic ending was more important than you know, LOGIC! So your character pretty much had to die if you wanted a good ending. Then they released a DLC that fixes the issue and lets you continue with some post-ending content. Paid DLC that is, your character doesn't get to survive if you don't pay them extra for the pleasure. Truly awful behavior that has made me ignore F3 ever since I beat for the first and last time. TL; DR: Fallout 3 had a shitty, moronic ending and Bethesda solved the problem but only if you pay them for DLC.
"Don't sell me a story"??? Well rip you. You can't even have mario, only pong. Probably couldn't even have Pong: The Next Level as I bet the penguins have a back story.
I don't have a problem with what the Battlefield DLC did, I have a problem with its price. Buying that DLC didn't give access to anything that required more skill - it just unlocked all the gear that you normally have to grind for. It's not like this was a game with a ranking system that let you buy your way to higher tiers, it was a shooter that let you unlock all the weapons... you know, like shooters used to do until every company started wanting to find way to keep players "engaged" by making them go through grinds to unlock things. The problem with this DLC was that the game design makes it possible for this to be DLC in the first place, not to mention the absurd price tag to simply unlock content that is already in the game... I guess there's a reason why I stopped playing multiplayer shooters almost 10 years ago...
I was about to mention Dead Or Alive 5 Last Round's DLC that can take the total price to USD 1,300 but that train simulator really takes the cake with all that amount of DLC.
Elite Dangerous Odyssey gets my vote. A supposedly fully realised DLC for £30 (!) that actually only contained little more than a very poor quality basic FPS and a few new mission types. In fact that the only thing it actually delivered upon was adding (yet more!) bugs, crashes and disappointment. Prior to this update Elite, a Live Service game, recieved no updates for 3 years and counting. Great job Frontier! I wonder why it went down like lead balloon with the community?
To be fair, I got the shortcut bundle for BF4 when I switched from Xbox to PS recently. Didn't really feel like spending hundreds of hours unlocking everything I already had.
i strongly disagree but im not quite rabidly mad(anymore) about the easy fatalities entry ,them being consumable makes sense to me they are aesthetic and do nothing more than allow people to easily flex,and the player absolutely does not need them and can relatively easily learn to do them for free,i think this is a best example of bad dlc,ive still managed to never do a single microtransaction, and ive bought a couple expansion type dlcs back in the day,im tldr im lonely ,love u guys by far the best video game channel on youtube and one of my fav channels period.
Not defending it, but the shortcut bundle for bf4 only unlocked items that can be earned through progression, not ones earned through merit and achievement (such as ones earned through the campaign/earned through doing in game tasks) So it didn’t unlock everything for you in multiplayer , just saved you a lot of time/not pay to win. especially given the fact you can pretty much grind out any classes main weapon unlocks in a day or 2
Another thing about DLC's... I was looking up older Xbox 360 games I used to play & their dlc's are the same price now as they were back then. Like Saints Row 2 DLC is still $9.99. A 10-12 year old game will be on sale in the Xbox store but the DLC price is still the same, ridiculous!!
yea, its the prologue to the video game only cut off the video game. The fact that you needed to play it to have a real idea what the hell was happening to start the actual game is a smack in the face and a shitty tactic to get more money
@@bdough5012 The prologue, with 5 other missions, with immense replayability, and tons of fan service, for 30 dollars, an entire year and a half before phantom pain. Sounds good to me
@@0wenkart And thats the rub. For some people that was true, but me personally and a lot of others we had A BIG ISSUE with "so little content" (when compared to what you expect in a MGS game). At the time especially $30 was just too much to justify. i know it may not seem like much, but if it had started at $20 id have felt much different, but 30 is half the "base" game cost. Your right that anyone really wanting that next mgs this helped ease that additional year wait, but still reeked of a cash grab. i put that on Konami not Hideo but i really have no clue if that matters
I only buy dlc for games I actually like. Unless the dlc is bad. Theres been quite a few games I just skipped the dlc on because it wasn't worth it imo.
The execs of The Saboteur likely didn’t want to deal with distribution and marketing headaches when they first released the game without nudity. If that’s the case, the DLC is therefore the best DLC, not worst. They had to find a back door first , so they could offer the game as they intended it to be.
Wasn't there a DLC that required the player to have spent at least 1000 bucks in Star Citizen, and this DLC itself was like 10 grand? And it was just one fucking ship? And they sold a 27k "bundle" of ships?
Cc2 initially wanted to make a sequel but low sales made Capcom decline the funding. So they convinced them to atleast make a DLC to finish the story. Blame low sales or Capcom for not greenlighting a sequel
I agree it's definitely sketchy that Asura's Wrath had a DLC ending... But, quite honestly, that extra ending is incredible... Especially Asura's final form(s). I'd have paid more for that ending.
Im a pretty avid destiny player and just wanted to let you know your destiny fact is wrong. Taken king was a fantastic dlc that released four+ years ago and didnt take any content away from Destiny 1. However in Destiny 2 when the Beyond Light dlc came out it locked away a large percent of the games content with the terms "sunsetting" and "DCV or destiny content vault". Otherwise pretty good video *edit just saw the activision copyright on the beyond light picture, activision hasnt been a part of destiny for like 2 years
what about dead or alive 5 and 6? they charge for season passes from around $70 to nearly $100. not to mention that its mostly the same outfit for different characters with MAYBE a character.
i love fighting games but the price for character packs is becoming absolutely insane. street fighter, soul calibur and tekken have packs ranging anywhere from $30-$50. with mk11, you better buy the ultimate edition,because if you dont, you'll be paying double the price for the base game and then its dlc. DOA is the worst though. season pass 3 and 4 for doa 6, $91and $102, 1 character and 50 some odd costumes in each.ive never been much of a fan of costumes aside from crossover ones in sf5 and klassic skins in mk but those prices are just plain criminal.
I'm fine with the DLC that doesn't change the game if you don't buy it. Or you can get just by playing the game. MKX Easy Fatalities are fine if you want to buy them. You don't need to if you just play the game.
Sad to think that Horse Armor DLC used to be widely, brutally, criticized but is now not only commonplace, but defended by consumers. Nor is it any longer the worst example of terrible DLC. To say that it's presently the worst DLC and would take up all ten slots on the list in the present day if permitted is quite strange when there are worse examples in this very list.
Immortals Fenyx Rising. Their first DLC was literally just all puzzle vaults, which there are far more than enough of in the main game already and their 3rd DLC which was a completely different game with about 10,000 extra RPG elements crammed in on top of a top down down camera view that everyone hated. Wasted season pass IMO.
Compared to a lot of DLC nowadays Oblivion's horse armor isn't even that bad. It was shit but at least it was something new and not just a recolor of an already existing item.
Train Simulator doesn't belong on this list, but I guess you can't blame Triple Jump for not taking a second to ask actual sim players. You don't buy Train Simulator and then ALL the DLCs, nobody does this. You only purchase the ones that interest you. I live near Chicago, and they have a Chicago line I would totally purchase if I had the money, because I've ridden it several times and would love to drive it. Each piece costs so much because, one again, it's a simulator. They're highly accurate and detailed models of the trains, their cars, the cabin with all controls, and the route itself which can be miles long. Case and point - you're not SUPPOSED to buy it all. Just buy what you like. The same goes for other sims like iRacing.
The taken king was amazing and anyone who says otherwise is deluded. A huge new area, tons of new guns and abilities, and the best story at the time, it was a true expansion. The "gating" of content was a specific mode that was kept current, and thus was technically part of the expansion
I feel like the people who play Train Simulator and buy the DLC, don't really play other games. They are just big time train spotters slowly building a collection of trains they like or have seen.
50 years ago they bought models and built miniature settings in the basement/attic... i can say this because i come from a city famous for the largest model train store in N. America (and converse shoes) and ive been to the store. they've literally lost 75% of business to the sim games (all thats left are the old guys that started before 2010s).

@@lillexus5589 A completely false dichotomy.

Asura's Wrath needs a rerelease with all DLC included
I think a Directors cut might do?
Thing is Asura's Wrath DLC isn't really bad per se as the ending is quite good, it just should be included in the main game as is all.
I could not agree more thoroughly. It's a travesty that they never got a packaged rerelease.

Boo, Saboteur was a great game!
agreed! i loved that game
I agree! It is remarkable. Why it wasn't "remarked" is a mystery. I'm certain it's because it came out when EA hate was at its peak.

i strongly disagree but im not quite rabidly mad(anymore) about the easy fatalities entry ,them being consumable makes sense to me they are aesthetic and do nothing more than allow people to easily flex,and the player absolutely does not need them and can relatively easily learn to do them for free,i think this is a best example of bad dlc,ive still managed to never do a single microtransaction, and ive bought a couple expansion type dlcs back in the day,im tldr im lonely ,love u guys by far the best video game channel on youtube and one of my fav channels period.
Not defending it, but the shortcut bundle for bf4 only unlocked items that can be earned through progression, not ones earned through merit and achievement (such as ones earned through the campaign/earned through doing in game tasks)
So it didn’t unlock everything for you in multiplayer , just saved you a lot of time/not pay to win.
especially given the fact you can pretty much grind out any classes main weapon unlocks in a day or 2
The taken king is far to good to be on this list
Another thing about DLC's...
I was looking up older Xbox 360 games I used to play & their dlc's are the same price now as they were back then. Like Saints Row 2 DLC is still $9.99. A 10-12 year old game will be on sale in the Xbox store but the DLC price is still the same, ridiculous!!
Wait... did they mention that Capcom game that had the DLC on the disc already? (was it one of the Street Fighter 4 editions?)
Does anyone know the name of the background music? Ive always thought it was fire but noone can tell me how to find it lol
That jab at MGSVGZ was wack. GZ is literally so much more than a demo
yea, its the prologue to the video game only cut off the video game. The fact that you needed to play it to have a real idea what the hell was happening to start the actual game is a smack in the face and a shitty tactic to get more money
@@bdough5012 The prologue, with 5 other missions, with immense replayability, and tons of fan service, for 30 dollars, an entire year and a half before phantom pain. Sounds good to me
@@0wenkart And thats the rub. For some people that was true, but me personally and a lot of others we had A BIG ISSUE with "so little content" (when compared to what you expect in a MGS game). At the time especially $30 was just too much to justify. i know it may not seem like much, but if it had started at $20 id have felt much different, but 30 is half the "base" game cost. Your right that anyone really wanting that next mgs this helped ease that additional year wait, but still reeked of a cash grab. i put that on Konami not Hideo but i really have no clue if that matters
I only buy dlc for games I actually like.
Unless the dlc is bad. Theres been quite a few games I just skipped the dlc on because it wasn't worth it imo.
The execs of The Saboteur likely didn’t want to deal with distribution and marketing headaches when they first released the game without nudity. If that’s the case, the DLC is therefore the best DLC, not worst. They had to find a back door first , so they could offer the game as they intended it to be.
Wasn't there a DLC that required the player to have spent at least 1000 bucks in Star Citizen, and this DLC itself was like 10 grand? And it was just one fucking ship? And they sold a 27k "bundle" of ships?
Cc2 initially wanted to make a sequel but low sales made Capcom decline the funding. So they convinced them to atleast make a DLC to finish the story.
Blame low sales or Capcom for not greenlighting a sequel
I agree it's definitely sketchy that Asura's Wrath had a DLC ending... But, quite honestly, that extra ending is incredible... Especially Asura's final form(s). I'd have paid more for that ending.
Im a pretty avid destiny player and just wanted to let you know your destiny fact is wrong. Taken king was a fantastic dlc that released four+ years ago and didnt take any content away from Destiny 1. However in Destiny 2 when the Beyond Light dlc came out it locked away a large percent of the games content with the terms "sunsetting" and "DCV or destiny content vault". Otherwise pretty good video
*edit just saw the activision copyright on the beyond light picture, activision hasnt been a part of destiny for like 2 years
how did on disc dlc not make it in this list?
what about dead or alive 5 and 6? they charge for season passes from around $70 to nearly $100. not to mention that its mostly the same outfit for different characters with MAYBE a character.
i love fighting games but the price for character packs is becoming absolutely insane. street fighter, soul calibur and tekken have packs ranging anywhere from $30-$50. with mk11, you better buy the ultimate edition,because if you dont, you'll be paying double the price for the base game and then its dlc.
DOA is the worst though. season pass 3 and 4 for doa 6, $91and $102, 1 character and 50 some odd costumes in each.ive never been much of a fan of costumes aside from crossover ones in sf5 and klassic skins in mk but those prices are just plain criminal.
“Taken king barley added anything new” makes you think if they even played the dlc
I'm fine with the DLC that doesn't change the game if you don't buy it. Or you can get just by playing the game. MKX Easy Fatalities are fine if you want to buy them. You don't need to if you just play the game.
Dead or Alive 6. All of it.
Cod mobile and war zone devs: taking notes
Not sure what the issue is with 2 or 3 pounds here and there, a bus day rider costs £4 here.
Train simulator is ridiculous though.
So... No mention of the "paid DLC" alternate costumes for Capcom's StreetFighter 4......
WHICH WERE ALREADY ON THE DISC?????
Cuz DOA's DLC is like The Price of a Car.
I expected the Street Fighter X Tekken dlc to be here
Sad to think that Horse Armor DLC used to be widely, brutally, criticized but is now not only commonplace, but defended by consumers. Nor is it any longer the worst example of terrible DLC. To say that it's presently the worst DLC and would take up all ten slots on the list in the present day if permitted is quite strange when there are worse examples in this very list.
I think there was a gold race car included with the Midnight Show DLC for the Saboteur
Immortals Fenyx Rising. Their first DLC was literally just all puzzle vaults, which there are far more than enough of in the main game already and their 3rd DLC which was a completely different game with about 10,000 extra RPG elements crammed in on top of a top down down camera view that everyone hated. Wasted season pass IMO.
That dude is inside on his couch with his hood on lmao
Compared to a lot of DLC nowadays Oblivion's horse armor isn't even that bad. It was shit but at least it was something new and not just a recolor of an already existing item.
Train Simulator doesn't belong on this list, but I guess you can't blame Triple Jump for not taking a second to ask actual sim players. You don't buy Train Simulator and then ALL the DLCs, nobody does this. You only purchase the ones that interest you. I live near Chicago, and they have a Chicago line I would totally purchase if I had the money, because I've ridden it several times and would love to drive it. Each piece costs so much because, one again, it's a simulator. They're highly accurate and detailed models of the trains, their cars, the cabin with all controls, and the route itself which can be miles long.
Case and point - you're not SUPPOSED to buy it all. Just buy what you like. The same goes for other sims like iRacing.
DOA 6 had you paying to change your hair colour i recall
I bet we can all guess #1: horse armor!!
*60 seconds later* ... fair.
Taken king is an downloadable expansion, not a DLC. Added an entire new area and revived the game
Why am I not able to turn on notifications for videos from you guys? it immediately reverts to being off
Before watching the video - Horse Armor
Not counting horse armour is almost worse than lollygagging
6:26 battlefront 4????
If you think Train Simulator 2021 is insane, what about the thousands of dollars that skins in CS:GO or the extra planes in Microsoft Flight Sim?
The Wizards Tower in Oblivion was also a rip off, it was already on the freaking disc!
The taken king was amazing and anyone who says otherwise is deluded. A huge new area, tons of new guns and abilities, and the best story at the time, it was a true expansion. The "gating" of content was a specific mode that was kept current, and thus was technically part of the expansion
That and I'm pretty sure someone slipped up. Because Curse of Osiris is much more fitting of the complaints than TTK
Metro gets shat on for difficulity mode but RE Village does not? Tsk tsk.
I know I'm not the first person to notice but Battlefront 4??? 6:25
