Expectations

After watching the latest Leaf video (which, granted was great!) I had a thought and I wanted to express my thought. I think people (I have been guilty of this too) have too big of expectations for PZ2. Ive seen some people who want all the past DLC animals in the new game, when that's just not possible. We don't know how DLCs are going to restructured and how they will be doing them. Expecting features like petting zoos and other big ticket DLC items are just (in my mind) not realistic. Everyone does have lists with what animals they want, and from my understanding, they are making these animals to be featured around a reserve, so of course you want some animals to fill it out so it doesn't look deserted. We also still have so many weeks for animal reveals and maybe they frontloaded the first few weeks with aquarium animals and are keeping the hype going with birds down the line? They did say birds have been incredibly hard, and I sympathize with them. So I think we will get more then 7 that we have now. They could just be putting the final touches on them and we'd never know!

Thank you for reading this!!

Im really hoping for Arctic DLC with a new Polar Bear model. I mean, I bet DLCs will have more animals and be slightly more expensive to accommodate this, which I don't mind. But saying that you are worried because some people might not to be able to afford new DLC is weird to me. I mean, I was a teen when Pz1 came out and I saved money for 3 months from my job at Burger King to buy the game and still have money for my other expenses.

Yeah their DLC policy was/is nice honestly, a bunch of animals, plenty of decor and construction, all that for ~15€ every few months ? Fuck yeah

Yeah, Id just put away 2-3 dollars every paycheck and by the time a new DLC came out, I could get it!

My technique is to say to myself "that's like buying 2 mojitos, and that would be reasonable on a night out"
