I am really unhappy about the move towards premium-content, DLC, IAP or however you want call what's happening in the gaming industry right now. When I play a game I do not want to make financial real world decisions and I don't want my gaming experience to be altered by my real world wallet. Isn't it the point of gaming to get away from worries like that?! I also want to be able to experience the game as it was originally intended by the game designer. That last point is not so much of an issue with a game like TF2, but more so with RPGs like Dragon Age or Mass Effect. Is the game balanced right with the stronger bonus armor that I got for per-ordering or does this make the game too easy??
