Alien Isolation offers Season Pass: Game is now irredeemably shit.

If the retail game gives me 10 hours of so of top notch gameplay I couldn't careless . I hate DLC but lets see how good the main game is before we start to slag it off as I see the same thing is happing with The Evil within .

I'm sorry but a mode with 1 map is unacceptable. Gotta agree with George on this one.

I understand DLC and have no problem with DLC but you need to release a complete game....first. Then you add DLC. The way Sega's apparently doing this is such the wrong way to do it.

[Team Andromeda]

To me it depends on how big and impressive Map 1 is . Its an amazing 10 hours of Alien horror love-in , then I'm more than happy

[Aki-at]

I won't be buying add-on DLC. The shipped game is what it is, and if the multiplayer in the shipped game sucks, it'll be reflected in my opinion of the game.

There's no multiplayer, only challenge maps with leader boards.

Absolutely correct. A game should be judged purely on what it is like out of the box, no DLC (free or paid), no day 1 patches, nothing. If it is a good game as that, I will purchase it. If I enjoy it and want more, then I will consider the DLC, depending on how much they charge.

10 hours isn't much compared to what a game this size would have given you 8 years ago. I'll wait to see if they release an entire content release..

Definitely not buying this day 1. After hearing this, it makes me a bit uneasy. I'll wait for the feedback from other people, sorry Sega.

[max_cady]

Season Pass or not. I already pre-ordered it.

Ah. My mistake.

Doesn't really change my opinion though.

[inthesky]

How much effort does it take to make a raw deal like this sound appetizing? =P

Pretty glad it'll come out on PS4 at least, I'm interested in watching some streams of it. Still expecting a creepy game.

RIP Alien Isolation, it was fun while it lasted.

Pre order cancelled, uninstalled all Sega games from PC, threw out my Dreamcast, drop-kicked a puppy down a flight of stairs, drove my car into a shopping centre food court, threw an ice-cream sundae at the Macdonald's Cashier, then shot myself in the face with a .45 Colt semi-automatic handgun.

10/10

cept it was missing SEGA HATES THE FANS and stuff

I'm more intrested how the negative publicity over ACM will impact on the sales of this game, myself.

So Creative Assembly is inviting streamers to play the game, here is survivor mode:

Yeah, this is pretty shitty of SEGA to do. I'll just be waiting for the inevitable GOTY edition that'll be released next year. I'd prefer a full game rather than one with stuff taken out of it so they can make it DLC.

[George]

I'm pretty sure nothing was 'taken out' of the game and made into DLC outside of maybe the pre-release DLC (if its playable day one).

The likes of Dead Space was pretty short and could be done in 10 hours or so ? Didn't really matter as those 10 hours were brilliant . If this game can give me 8 to 10 hours of scary and quality gameplay combined with some Alien love-in . I really couldn't careless about DLC .

Its been years since I played a really good horror game, but less seen or played a decent Alien film or game
