Another question that should be asked is if the game is worth full price with a 10$ increase and if maybe this was released on the end of the fiscal year for personal gain. As someone that bought the deluxe edition and had to refund it. It was not and i believe that Capcom had no true intention of caring about DD2 other than forcing Itsuno to release it broken with DLC to skim off the top. I will consider getting the game when it is fixed and the game is a fully featured one than that of a rushed release to make profitable returns for investors.

I will say that this should worry everyone because if RE:Engine can not seem to handle open world of DD2 with it’s problems. What will happen with MH IW? What about the supposed open world Resident Evil? Are we going to see these games release broken with not much features but have tons of DLC on the top being the focus instead? I do think we may see this and Capcom is going back to being greed as they were 14 years ago unfortunately.
