I don't remember that. AFAIK Larian has not made, and will not make any DLC for BG3.
What do you mean?
Guy is mad that Larian decided to add the pre-order items (literally some cosmetic items that reference their previous game, soundtrack, some art and DnD style character sheets for the Origins) as an optional bundle for people to buy if they missed out and want them. But "day 1 DLC bad" so it doesn't matter how inoffensive this thing is, hate must flow, game shit, 0/10.
What a terrible unnecessary and emotionally loaded strawman argument. I actually own the DLC and love BG3 just as I love Larian‘s other recent games. You‘re wrong about it being just cosmetics too. And it was Larian who made a HUGE deal about not tolerating any additional, paywalled content when the game had it from day 1. And so you now make a huge deal about how it somehow doesn‘t count because Larian is based or something. Just accept that they lied there just like they lie about shareholders and enjoy the video game like everyone else without treating the devs like your holy absolute.
What do you usually do when you don’t remember information that is freely available? I am talking about the very DLC featured on the Steam page. The one with an item bag that gives you more dialog options. The one that Larian made a big deal about not existing. Guess it worked considering there‘s even gaslit superfans in here refusing to admit it exists because it‘s somehow such a world shattering deal to them.
I don't know why you are so aggressive.
You made a good point, this is actually DLC, I just forgot about it.
I bought BG3 when it was in EA, so I got this DLC automatically, so I never really thought about it recently, I don't even remember seeing it on any shop front.
But now that you mentioned it, I think I thought that they should probably release it for free for everyone at that time. Just like CDPR released some cosmetic 'DLC' for free after launch.
If I had to buy it, I probably wouldn't.
