So, I finally managed to play both Banned Footage volumes for RE7 included in the season pass, and I really can't believe Capcom is charcing so much for those contents.
Vol.1 is 10€, and it contains a simple survival mode in which no additional work is present if not a timer and the scrap containers in the map.
The second dlc is a very short puzzle which can be solved in 15 minutes without particular problems during the first attempt. Again, no additional work if not a couple of new cutscenes and some items you can interact with (in fact, part of the puzzle was already in the main game, like the shadow one) for the puzzle.
Vol.2 is 15€ and it comes with 21, a blackjack minigame, and Daughters, literlly a ten minutes dlc with a couple of new cutscene and nothing else, since the location is the same. Yeah, it comes with two endings, but that's it. 21 comes with additional modes as well, but the core gameplay is the same one no matter what.
Those dlcs also comes with Ethan must die, a new "Souls-like" mode insanely unbalanced, and Jack's birthday. If we consider the price of those packages is 25€ (or 30€ for the season pass, which will include another dlc in the future), am I the only one thinking the whole thing is insanely overpriced?
In first place pretty much all RE titles in the past came with additional modes and minigames, while RE7 had NOTHING at all at launch (and no, Madhouse is just another difficulty level, nothing compared to the past...but something similar to arrange mode for RE2). Even Re0 had a nice minigame, while here simple things like Nightmare mode are locked behind a paywall. Ethan must die in example should be free in my opinion, since it's nothing else than a difficulty mode based on luck, so Capcom here just changed some variables and called the day.
Other contents offer how much? Let's say 3 hours of additional content? And this considering the fact you will play each mode a couple of times too, and not only once.
I'm ok with dlcs if they really provide something good (Witcher 3 season pass was 25€ and it added something like 40 additional hours of gameplay, with new cutscenes, locations, dialogues etc), I'm also ok on paying a small fee for little dlcs, but charging so much for so small contents it's really a shame in my opinion.
