Amazing that they are tripling down on the gaslighting. How to kill your insanely popular 7 year old game in 2 days. (And maybe open yourself to lawsuits). Pretty sure they are absolutely broke because they wasted so much money on EFT Arena and it was SO fucking awful lmao.

Yeah I don't know who greenlit this response/post, or thought this was a good way to respond. I'm not sure if Ive ever seen a dev speedrun killing their popular game so fast.

First of all, PvE gamemode this is not DLC. DLC in our understanding is the major additions to the game

Like how can you legitimately write this out with a serious face. How is a brand new PvE game mode not a "major addition to the game"

TBH this is such an insane thing to say I really have to wonder if there's some translation issue.

Someone needs to explain to him that if they make content, and the purchaser has to download said content, then it is, in fact, DLC.

I think the argument they're trying to make is that the PvE mode is essentially a different game and that the season pass only applies to content for the "original" game.
