I think the DLCs are okay... I think that they should have included that in the story. I mean, they didn\'t have to make this long, drawn out explanation of why Sazh was gone or what lightning was doing. I think that they could have a brief, non-confusing playable memory or a cutscene. Either that or make them free downloads; the downloads shouldn\'t cost money.

I'd rather the DLC for FF titles just be limited to costumes and aesthetic changes for the characters. Story DLC is a cool idea, but getting charged extra after already purchasing what is supposed to be a complete game is not.

I have bought all the DLC. Overall, I think it is Square Enix\'s test to see if they can make profit. It is fun and enjoyable, However they are way too expensive. For the Story DLC, if Square Enix plans on charging $4.99 for what is maybe 5 minutes worth of Cut Scenes for the rest of the year, I hope they expect to see a lot of negative feedback.

*WARNING, COMMENT CONTAINS FINAL FANTASY XIII-2 ENDGAME SPOILER*

Firstly, costumes and weapons are fine, but at $2.99 a pop, they are too expensive. I could go on the app store and buy six whole games for the price of two costumes.

Secondly, the story dlc so far has been too short to justify the $4.99 purchase. The Golden Saucer came with every one of its minigames (and yes, I know they didn\'t have dlc, let alone internet connection when it was released), and I don\'t see why Serendipity didn\'t. Plus paying to finish an incomplete story is bad public relations of Square Enix\'s part. In my opinion, they should simply release one final chapter via dlc, $10.00 at most, and have it last at LEAST an hour, explaining why the 30+ hours I put into the game just resulted

Well, the scenarios I don\'t like (should have been in there from the beginning). But the idea of buying Colosseum battles to recruit into your party is pretty cool.

Well think of it this way, you can pay $6 dollars for the last five minutes of story, or wait a year when Toriyama and Square-Enix release XIII-3 and pay $60 for more story you can truly care less for. Or a story I don't care for, anyway.

The only DLCs that I hate are ones that are over 500MB...And The XIII-2 ones haven't passed that yet so...I can't complain, besides I can adapt to the idea DLC pretty easily (AC2/ACBH/ME/ME2 anyone?)

I really do want to say that I\'m excited for the DLC especially what with the rumours of having Gilgamesh recruitable, but I\'m not. I\'m just not that excited about it right now because while I finished the game I did not like a single one of the endings, and at this point it really does feel like more of a cash grab to me than anything else, (SPOILERS) especially with that ending which pretty much says were getting XIII-3, but I\'ll consider it further down the line.

To me DLC is cool. I like it when it adds to the story. The outfits are a little expensive for just an outfit. Colosseum battles are a neat idea, as well as extra (optional) chapters with characters that weren't featured in the game. $3 and $5 seems cheap but it quickly adds up.
