Technically it's an expansion. An expansive expansion of exponential proportions.

"back in my days there were no DLCs, there were expansions!"

[–]Fredvdp 52ポイント53ポイント  (28子コメント)

It's downloadable, so let's agree it's both. ;)

Main game is DLC then.

[–]DylanCN 37ポイント38ポイント  (25子コメント)

According to the very first line on Wikipedia, no.

Downloadable content (DLC) is additional content created for a released video game.

That's what it's come to mean in the vernacular, not what it literally means, which is the point he was trying to make. Honestly you guys are arguing semantics at this point...

[–]DylanCN 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

Literally all we ever did was argue semantics, but you're missing my motivation. I just took offense at how /u/victorix58 was correcting people smugly, even when he might've been wrong. Because, as I said, it really doesn't matter if we call it an expansion or DLC, no one cares and everyone knows what you're talking about.

Missed my point a little....

[–]DylanCN 28ポイント29ポイント  (9子コメント)

No I understood it. Your point was that since the main game is technically downloadabe, it's downloadable content, right?

But the definition from Wikipedia clearly states that to be DLC it has to be "additional content", not the main-game.

What was your point, then?

[–]Dubisek -4ポイント-3ポイント  (2子コメント)

Everyone can edit and write on Wikipedia so please stop referring to it as "what is on wiki is the truth" because it certainly isn't.

[–]DylanCN 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

If you'd cared to read on, you would have seen that I address this and link other two sources which state the same, one of which being Giantbomb.

Also

stop referring to it as "what is on wiki is the truth"

I didn't. I literally just said the very first line of its Wikipedia entry disagrees. I thought it was worth mentioning as it's the first result you get when you google "DLC".

This is another myth. Most articles these days can't even be edited by anyone as they are rejected within hours. You can also check the facts by going to the sources.

[–]Zulkir -3ポイント-2ポイント  (5子コメント)

I get that you obviously enjoy arguing semantics, but if you'd continued to read slightly beyond the sentence you quoted, you would have seen this:

Downloadable content can be of several types, ranging from aesthetic outfit changes to a new, extensive storyline, similar to an expansion pack.

Emphasis mine, and if we're actually using wikipedia to define things that are entirely defined by their common usage; and with no official, agreed-upon definition beyond that, then it's clearly saying that an expansion is not DLC. And CDPR have clearly labeled it an expansion in all the promotional material. Everyone's not just calling it that for fun.

[–]DylanCN 2ポイント3ポイント  (4子コメント)

How does that line make them mutually exclusive? Literally the first line, as I said, establishes that all downloadable additional content to a game is DLC, with no exceptions made.

And I think you're missing my point, my point was it doesn't matter if you call it DLC or an expansion pack, literally everyone knows what you're talking about. And I don't see why it matters, B&W and HoS have been met with critical acclaim so it's not like the moniker of DLC is holding them down.

[–]Zulkir -3ポイント-2ポイント  (3子コメント)

If expansions were DLC the source you quoted to prove that they were would say it, considering it lists things "similar to an expansion pack", it not listing expansion packs is thus a relevant omission.
And I really couldn't care less what anyone calls them, I just thought your choice of source was suspect.

[–]DylanCN 2ポイント3ポイント  (2子コメント)

I adressed that, though. Later I listed two other sources which said the same (with no bias, literally the first two results I got when googling "DLC"), and one of them was from Giantbomb. I argued that surely Giantbomb must be a better source than no source, which /u/victorix58 provided.

[–]Zulkir -2ポイント-1ポイント  (1子コメント)

You decided to source wiki in response to a smartass comment, which was itself in response to another smartass comment, which was made in response to the original, mostly tongue-in-cheek comment. And you acknowledge that nobody actually cares about what people are calling it.

If you're gonna do that, you probably should make sure it's for something that can actually be strictly defined beyond its literal meaning and that the source you quote fully agrees with your point. I don't care where the pointless argument went. That's on the two of you continuing to argue over pointless nonsense on the internet.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I did.

The definition I put forth (with 3 sources) isn't its literal meaning. It's the technical meaning. The literal meaning is the one I rebutted to.

I don't care where the pointless argument went

You should, if you're gonna comment on it. Are you gonna review a movie having only seen half of it?

That's on the two of you continuing to argue over pointless nonsense on the internet

Well, you too, now.

Technically, yes, but the term DLC was coined when games were still printed on discs and it kinda stuck, so I guess that's why there's a distinction.
