Just done the sums on what this add-on would apparently cost retail (without discounts), and going by the figures in front of me would put this add-on at $92.51USD, €83.23 or $128.75AUD.

Speaks for itself, doesn't it?

The DLC is way too expensive for what it is... versus it's competitors.
That holds true whether the initial game was offered for free or not.
It's not 'head and shoulders' above AC or RF2 as virtual simulation software goes.
It does some things better...sound etc... but it's behind in a few as well.
It's pricing needs to be more in line with the other two.
As to the content already purchased by users and then re-released in 'new' packs...that needs to be taken into account during their pricing model.
