Knuckles was an expansion on the fucking Genesis.

Yeah gaming these days, paying for star craft brood wars just to get extra units.

To not even mention recent examples like Total Annihilation: The Core Contingency or Diablo: Hellfire, Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne, Baldur's Gate 2: Throne of Bhaal, the list of offenders goes on.

Blizzard was making expansions in the late 90s and they were amazing. Back when blizzard was the best of the best not the worst of the worst.

We had expansions in tabletop games.

We did and they were awesome. I guess I'm just saying there are two versions here and one of them is better than the other and I find it weird thats all. At least the expansion was all inclusive and not a form of baiting you into missing out on paid features. Things have changed obviously since 2000 but, take the level 60 upgrade. Paid and free are at an obvious disadvantage. The ranking system shouldn't be something you pay for to be uncapped.

This is not a competitive game it is a single-player game.

So your main complaint is when they decided to put out a massive expansion pack for this game.. they also decided to give away some free shit too.
