Mass Effect action figures include ME3 DLC

@Megalith

They got it right this time with the character selection! We are Legion!
He's the only one I actually will buy and not feel silly for it...

I concur. It's not something I actively think about, but I somewhat recently picked up ME2 for PS3, as well as all of the DLC armour/weapons, and I can't imagine playing it without them, which is kind of bumming me out for ME3.

@Darklink2009 Or not getting DLC at all cause you're playing on a certain console. That irritates me.

@Darklink2009 It makes waiting a year and getting the GOTY edition more viable.

Especially when some content is only in the GOTY edition, ROCKSTAR.

@King Johngie the Fourth

The armour/weapon DLC for ME2 was pretty forgettable. I think I used the black whole generator heavy weapon on the rare occasion I actually used a heavy weapon but the rest of the items I wouldn't have noticed if they were gone.

@Altairio DLC seriously should not be bundled like this. To add insult to injury I already own two of these action figures so now I feel like I'm really being cheated -_-.

@Scnew

Sadly, we're way past that... ~_~ ::sigh::

@Teeree LOL, have you actually seen a mexican person? Default Shepard looks nothing like him. I think the dude he is modeled after is Dutch, actually.

@HobbitGamer Yeah I find it funny that people are shocked. I mean DLC! I must buy it! Wtf is this action figure? *tosses it away*

@Wise Men

The delivery method is the problem.

Why should anyone have to purchase 5 Sheps in order to receive the 2 random upgrades available through this promotion? $3 worth of DLC packaged around a $15+ action figure?

But forget about purchasing them for standard pricing, much like anything today there will be artificial scarcity created by speculators who dash to and fro buying as many as possible in order to make a profit on eBay, Craigslist, etc.

And this is my real problem with this promotion; packaging a digital item on a tangible item that individuals can purchase with intent to re-sell.

@NathanAllen

Right. As I said in my original post. Gamers have issue because of how it's packaged. That in itself amazes me. We have issue with how it's packaged.

It sounds like you don't feel that it's packaged in a way that feels fair to you. I think that feeling comes from this sense of entitlement that you have about the content.

The truth is we don't get to tell a company how to package ADDITIONAL content. Everything is not OWED to us. This is multiplayer DLC in an RPG and we are complaining because of how it's packaged?

I'm referring to this unrealistic perception of entitlement that gamers have...it really baffles me. We complain if DLC is there, we complain if it's not, we complain about how it's packaged, we complain if it is only available with new copies of a game, we complain if there is no multiplayer, we complain if there IS multiplayer. When does it end?

I am all for voicing our opinion to ensure that we are getting a complete game experience for the money we pay...but when we start complaining about how multiplayer DLC content, for an RPG is packaged, I think we are being unreasonable.
