I remember when Capcom did this with Asura's Wrath (this was deep in the middle of when Capcom was just the fucking worst all-around) and it made bloody everyone fucking furious

And yet people continue to buy their games. Or rather, a temporary license to said games that may revoked at any time.

The story ends on a cliffhanger, and apparently there's story DLC that resolves the cliffhanger.

Anyhoo, while Ubisoft sucks, it doesn't feel that different than games in a series that leave stuff clearly unresolved for a sequel. Granted, I never liked that, either.

The new DLC for AC Shadows actually resolves Naoe's personal story and really the overarching story from the base game.

Well, good thing I stopped buying Ubisoft games brand new then. The last AC I bought was Syndicate but I didn't even play that one yet.

Yeah I remember it in Odyssey. They ended the game with a big reveal that lead directly into the Atlantis DLC

Come to think of it, Dead Island 2 also did this

Nah, it's still alive and well, even with the sequel way of doing it.

Square's bad for it, the Trails series has been doing it for years and years, etc.

Nah, it's just as guilty about "You beat this game's boss but not only is the overarching story not actually resolved but we ended with threads that you won't know where they go until the sequel" in the cases I'm referring to. I'm not talking about just any sequel.

Ending in a cliffhanger and resolving in a dlc is fine..........if the cliffhanger happened in a dlc, resolving plot treads from the main game in a dlc is bullshit.

Tying up a characters story beyond what is in the story (because it would necessarily happen after the storys climax) is pretty common.

Basically every character in the Arkham games got some version of this.

I'd argue they did it with Valhalla as well (albeit at least it was free). The game kind of just ends after the whole Loki/Basim encounter but then Ubisoft went and released a DLC over two years after originally releasing the game where it was finally revealed exactly when and why Eivor ended traveling to North America and dying and being buried there.

Wasn't it because of mostly of the cultural war?

Seriously, if people supports Ubisoft at this point then they have the game that they deserve lol

No, there's an actual ending and everything. It just leaves some character stuff unresolved. And then the DLC resolves said character stuff.

I did because its an awesome game.

And since the DLC is free I dont see what the handwringing is about.

Well, it's only free if you preordered, to be fair. They're basically doing that as an apology to people that preordered and then they delayed the game.

I think Shadows get overhated. There are plenty of things I didn't like about it but it was an enjoyable game.

Don't like the lack of first civilisation in it and this DLC won't change that.
Also the whole "whats in the box?" plot got boring with no pay off.

Capcom still does this shit with Monster Hunter. Rise launched without the ending. It was added about a month later iirc. Yes the update was free, but selling an unfinished game and just being like eh well add the ending later is still so shitty
