[–] tisktisk@piefed.social 4 points 1 year ago (2 children) do you need dlcs for risk of rain 2?

Hell, you couldn't even get a conclusion to one of the assassin's creed narratives without the dlc and I personally find this revolting as someone that loves video games way too much. I know I'm basically just overzealous about the principle of these things, but I really believe we need more people taking more responsibility for the embarrassing precedents we're creating permalink fedilink source parent [–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 2 points 1 year ago No you didn't need the dlcs for it.
