Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Downloadable Content Sucks

The bad news is that Square Enix’s pricing on this stuff is shithouse crazy. No way am I going to basically pay what the game cost in the first place, all over again, for some tiny bits of trivial extra content. A $13 expansion pack to a $15 game should double the content, at minimum.

…

Anyway, here’s everything that’s currently available:

• Three Races Pack (800 points): All three new races in one slightly discounted set.
• Lilty House, Selkie House, Yuke House (300 points each): Houses that produce new adventurers of the other three races in the Crystal Chronicles world.
• King’s Change of Clothes (100 points): Crazy eyepatch pirate outfit for the King.
• Chime’s Dress-Up (100 points): A new outfit for your assistant Chime.
• Sacred Shrine (200 points): A shrine that lets warriors temporarily buff themselves up.
• Gorgeous House (100 points): A big house that many different people can live in.

There is a catch. Besides the exorbitant pricing structure, I mean. While you can change clothes immediately, you can’t build any of the five new buildings unless you first clear a new dungeon that pops up on the world map.
