Shower Monologue #1: Me2 Dlc
I've recently decided to finish up my main character in Mass Effect 2, and thought: today would be a good time to catch up on the DLCs I missed, which were mainly post Kasumi stuff.
As I did a basic math the scrounge up my remaining points from my account and purchase more Bioware points to buy my DLC, it got me thinking. At the moment ME2 normal costs around $20, and the Digital Deluxe edition cost $40. I bought the DD when it first came out (mainly for concept art and the music), and it was $70; $10 more than the 360 version. Not bad. Not bad.
All ME2 copies came with the Cerberus Network, which grant you free DLC for a while.
$1 = 80 BP.
To get the main DLC (2480 BP), which includes Kasumi, Overlord, Shadow Broker, and Arrival, I have to pay $31 bucks.
To get all the DLC (3280 BP) available on Bioware, which includes the weapons/armor not given via Cerberus network and horse armor for your squadmates, I have to pay and additional $10. This doesn't include the Gamestop pre-order, DD edition, and the Dr. Pepper promo.
I bought the game for $70. I then later bough the whole experience for a total of around $100.
Moral of the story: Buy ME2 normal version when it's over a year old. Then get the main DLC when the studio's done with it and is moving on to ME3 content. I would've save myself half the price for a whole experience.
But then again, playing the game hot off the presses was a difference experience altogether.
