Some of us said crazy stuff could happen when horse armor happened but they said no it wouldn't get crazy.
Oh it got crazy.
It got damn crazy.

I would not be surprised if even with PC...ahem..modding, DOA DLC made KT a nice chunk of change.

At least you can directly buy the items you want here without dealing with randomized bullshit. Not really comparable to loot boxes.
Those are not the same. DLC, while frequently an anti-consumer method of extracting more cash for content (that should already be in the game), lootboxes don't even give you the privilege of getting what you want, but merely the chance. It's gambling. DLC is not gambling.
This market has a lot of disposable income if most of these guys are in IT.
Met a guy at an IT work convention and saw his Gundam keyring. I came up and talked about how I grew up with anime in the 90s and loved Gundam Wings to build rapport with him.
He introduced himself as an engineer specialized in network clustering.
Dude then showed me his anime figurines and his Gundam models from his cellphone.
Asked how much did each one of them cost. He said on an average of $200 each...the picture was only his "game room" and he got more in the boxes. Probably like over 100+ on that one wall.
He then said he wanted to buy a new house next year because he wanted to build an arcade and movie room.
I was like WTF, I am in the wrong field of IT.
I'd rather free chances at getting items versus hundreds or thousands of dollars of extra crap.
Nah. The mind shudders to imagine what collecting all this content through lootboxes would cost.
Not even close. There is a BIG difference between buying what you want, or taking a chance on a lottery.
Is this the titty game?
Gotta dress your waifus up to your specific tastes. Probably a pretty easily exploited niche.

This is good.
Would you rather this kind of content be locked to randomized loot box purchases?
If a company wants to make hundreds of dollars of DLC and sell them seperately, who gives a crap? This is the preferred method over lootboxes.

These are costumes. The only exception being taunts ( same as buying emotes ) and the Neptunia pack that adds an extra character. The Awakened character pack i think gives you a variant of a couple of characters, essentially an "evil ryu" version of a couple of characters.
Since this is a game that already gives you literally hundreds of costumes and customization options and has literally dozens of characters, i think this is quite fine. Also, Peach Beach Splash is a legit good game. It is absolutely caked in Over the top fanservice, make no mistake about it. But it is a well made, good game.
Hell, the game has a card pack system for leveling and power up and yet the DLC does not sell you those, That's entirely in-game. That alone already makes this quite fine.
I know, i know "DLC is the devil" and all that. i too hate Lootboxes... but let's try to focus the criticism to where it is an actual problem.
