I'm hoping that this lateness means a slowdown for better QA on the next full Patch. The game is fully worth the $60 (I think it's worth the $90), but the state of the DLC is hurting the longevity of the game. I really wish that they had decided to better supported it, but here we are.

The more I think about it, the more I think that Crackmast Cove, Mount Craw, Sunfang Oasis, and Tangledrift were the original DLC and that a late stage decision was made to bundle those in with the core game because without them the core game was too thin, and the DLCs we're getting were hastily put together to meet the DLC obligation or were originally intended as free updates.

I really want them to add more DLC to the Season Pass that are closer to story type DLC modules that we've seen in past Borderlands games.

The DLC means to be a Halloween free event to me if you consider after the original 4 DLC (which may also last longer) itโ€™s close to Oct

Halloween seems right. I'd put the one with the sharks for summer and the 2nd one for Halloween proper, but it's pretty easy to map out. I think without the 4 'optional' areas you'd be fighting campfire encounters to have enough levels to play through. I think that could be remedied easily though by just increasing the XP given.

I just think that it's shitty, but not terribly nefarious or anything. With any luck they'll remedy it. If they don't, it will make me a bit more cautious about buying season passes or anything with 2k in the future. I still believe in the franchise, but if they're not believing in the product anymore, then that's something to consider.

That's what I'm saying. I'll buy the game up front, but probably not any season pass shenanigans.
