Playstation Tablet 1,771 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 How many times does some AAA budget SP game get announced with a $30 season pass? All the time. God of War - Zero DLC. Nothing at all even with its insane sales. Detroit - No DLC. They're working on the next game Spiderman - This is getting some DLC but nothing offensive as pre order with $30 season pass. SOTC - Self explanatory. Uncharted 4 - No SP DLC. Full single player release later of Lost Legacy. Ratchet and Clank - No DLC/Expansion Gravity Rush - No DLC/Expansion. Only major one was Horizon that broke the trend. It's also a huge factor in the Yakuza team's appeal, they never bother with bullshit DLC. They are super efficient at making full games.

Goukosan 2,335 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Having a season pass doesn't mean the game sold terribly BOTW had a season Pass - game sold over 10 million Oddessy had some DLC - game sold over 12 million. MK8 had DLC - game sold over 11 million Splatoon 2 had a season pass - game sold over 7 million. Link to post Share on other sites
Playstation Tablet 1,771 Posted October 3, 2018 Author Share Posted October 3, 2018 (edited) Are you seriously comparing a Nintendo system to a Playstation system in terms of first party software importance? Also it's merely ONE of the factors. Edited October 3, 2018 by Beta Bux Romeo Link to post Share on other sites

Many people would skip God of War if it had a $30 season pass at full $60 launch price. Also better to make studios make MORE games, than waste time on half assed post content.

Also it's merely ONE of the factors. All those games I listed are full games complete games, even if a user doesn't purchase DLC. First party software on Playstation is also very important. Its what distinguishes it from Xbox. If it wasn't for Sony's first party software.... what would make it unique when compared to Xbox1? Link to post Share on other sites

Hot Sauce 2,756 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 You're just projecting your own feelings onto the market. The Soulsborne games are a perfect counter example to every opinion you've expressed in this thread. Link to post Share on other sites
