Wow, that was fast. Good to know Prickard is back. Here's hoping he won't be such a prick anymore.

I have to say, it doesn't fill me with confidence when story DLC is released this soon after the game launches. I haven't even gotten around to starting it yet. I have a feeling it's going to be pretty light on the content and overpriced for what it is.

I always thought Pritchard was kind of an ass near the beginning of Human Revolution, but over the course of the game, he grew on me. Dare I say he actually become one of the most trustworthy characters in the game? I actually like him.

I always found it sad he was one of the few characters that didn't plan to use or double-cross Jensen. Everything about him just screamed "I'm using you for my own interests". But yeah near the end of Human Revolution he actually cared a bit about Jensen (or at least it seemed that way).

Sounds like typical bullshit of Square ripping stuff from the main game and selling it later for more money, because $60 and their scummy microtransactions aren't enough .. Just disgusting practice.

 

There's no way DLC should be anywhere near ready if they just intended on making good game first, then exploring DLC at a later date once the base game was done. So sick of the current games industry just being so shitty with their practices.

Iconic Frank Pritchard isn't nearly as much of a stretch as "Iconic Aiden Pearce's hat," but it is amusing nonetheless.

Normally I have absolutely no problem with DLC but I agree with you on this one. The files will already be there and the DLC will just be a 50kb unlock key. That's pretty shitty
