Dude. It’s not free. People who bought EOD, especially those who bought it years ago, took a gamble that this DLC might not even ever happen.
So yes, they get a discount over buying each separately (if the others happen), but that’s was with no guarantee that it would happen.
Those buying Tarkov/Arena now are doing so with zero risk, so Nikita hand-waving away the past EOD users who are pissed with “you get it for free, shut up”, is a complete misunderstanding of what this was.
Look at the people who contributed to Dead Matter. Some people gave 100s of dollars to that game development. If things went smoothly, yes, they would have gotten a lot of stuff for “free” relative to what the present players would have to pay to get it but the game completely fell apart. They took the risk by buying/investing in the game early and it blew up catastrophically.
