As far as I'm aware it's like standalone in the sense that it's separate from the main game, like you access it through the menu.

And my question is more, what incentive does the player have for playing this before the base game.

This doesn't really make much sense to me, why wouldn't you play through the game before touching the DLC?

Thing is, most of the discussion online is guided by reviews from major publications. If someone like SkillUp says the game is good then there will generally be a positive discussion about that game. Personally, I haven't played it nor do I ever really plan on playing it. Something about it just doesn't catch me eye the way certain games do, I feel like I'd have a similar experience to you if I did play it.

Male yandere. That's a new one for me.

With the state of the world rn, I wouldn't be at all surprised if that was the case.

Ahh, that I'm not aware of.

Some NSFW games have been reindexed, yes however they are still going through and deciding which ones abide by their policies.

You sounds like an asshole, but you're partially right. Speaking of the people who buy FIFA every year without as much of a second thought. They people who very casually just buy into games they have a passing interest in.

But I'm not so sure that crowd makes up a majority anymore.

As we had all feared. Now that we know this for certain, I wonder what other nasty tricks The Chinese Room will try to pull with this game...

Good? I don't understand the defense of having more jobs for people.

Genuine question, aside from the creative ventures (which I believe generative AI should never be used for in a professional setting), what's the value in having people work for work's sake? Like the monotonous jobs, the jobs that don't have any real value but still should get done.

I've never held a strong identity with my job, and I really don't understand why others, particularly in America, do.

Good. I mean, who does this? You're selling flight tickets before the plane is even built. At least wait until the game is released to gage if players even want a DLC.

Even still, you've shown your hand. Now players think that you were sectioning off development of certain aspects of a game to then later sell off for extra cash instead of focusing on releasing a fully built game. Terrible mistake.

I was going to say the same thing. I noticed it with the new Busby game, I hope they find a lot of success are are able to bring that retro game design back to the forefront.
