    As soon as the DLC released, for a now-tiny sum of 200 Microsoft Points ($2.50/£1.50), gamers revolted against the studio.

    These people are crazy if they think that is a tiny amount of money for a single item purely cosmetic DLC in a single-player game. That is a lot of money now and was a lot of money back then for that little value.

      It’s tiny in comparison to cosmetic transactions nowadays. Still ridiculous, then as now

        What are skins going for now in games like Fortnite, R6, or CS:GO? Aren’t some going for as much as a new game? More?

          “normal” is around $10, “high” is $20-30, we’ve seen as high as $500 iirc.

          Most indie games release between $15-30. Honestly most skins are around the cost of a new game, yeah.
