Seems like an interesting direction for the series. Shame it doesn't have more padding - RDR's zombie expansion just had more.
What?!
Wasn't free on PC or Xbox, so why would it be free on Playstation?
You realise this is a Square Enix game, right?
They're not exactly renownded for their generosity... look at the FFXV: Episode Duscae 'demo', RotTR/Hitman's absurd release schedules and Deus Ex's 'augmented' pre-orders.

Because no way in hell SE is gonna try to sell the game for full price if they don't add the DLCs. If they do they will have a rude awakening with all the controversy surrounding the game already. Few people will pay 60 bucks for a year old game, especially when there is huge competition this year.
I guess skipping the season pass DLC was a wise choice on this after all.
I'm fine with that
The main game was a blast
But every game HAS to have zombies in it now! It's an unwritten rule since The Walking Dead became popular. Don't question it, just let it happen. Haha
More puzzles, less zombies...that's basically my life motto.
Zombies? Come on, I thought we got over the Zombie bullcrap from last gen. Now I'm not saying I don't enjoy some Zombie fun, Black Ops, Red Dead, Dead Nation, all good zombie carnage, but it felt played out after it seemed every game had a zombie mode.
I enjoyed Rise of the Tomb Raider but I haven't bothered with any of its DLC. I heard Baba Yaga was really short and I'm not interested in this Cold Darkness add on.
So we are reviewing videogames and movies based upon what we want, not what creators want to show and do and how it's executed?
