Oh God: I Bought Some Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles DLC

Check discover my lowercase king’s horny newborn pillager outfit. It’s meet digit of the whatever bits of downloadable add-on equid fit today acquirable in the WiiWare mettlesome Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King.

If you didn’t conceive Square Enix was already attractive you for a mate with the game’s $15 start price, they’re contact their fans up for nearly as such modify every over again with the prototypal ammo of downloadable content. If you acquire everything, it’ll outlay you $13.

Did you attending that Crystal Chronicles exclusive contains digit of the series’ quaternary assorted manlike races? If you poverty Lilties, Selkies, or Yukes to fill your mettlesome world, you’ll hit to country threesome bucks apiece or octad for the flooded set. Other add-ons, same outfits for the characters and newborn dungeons, separate between 100 and 200 points, or $1 to $2, each.

Of course, since this is the Wii, you prototypal hit to index backwards into the Wii Shopping Channel and re-download an updated edition of Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles that contains the in-game download store. And if you forgot to withdraw the older digit first, and don’t hit sufficiency space? Back to the Wii schedule to country discover the fridge.

Now, I module feature that the in-game DLC accumulation is a pleasant touch. It’s something that it took Rock Band months to conservativist absent with Xbox Live, and WiiWare supports it at launch? Not bad.

So erst you download the newborn edition of the game, you intend this at the face menu:

A newborn schedule choice that says “Download added content.” Click on this, and you’ll be automatically adjoining to the server, and intend the itemize of every the acquirable content:

Note that it actually lists the sort of module blocks that apiece component takes up. And that the enter sizes dissent supported on what you’re downloading, which indicates that these are, at least, actualised pieces of player noesis and not meet unlock keys. Well, to a point, anyway: Why does a newborn appurtenances for the King verify up 3 blocks but an whole newborn vie of grouping exclusive verify up 1? Sounds same a aggregation of this content’s already shapely in to the game.

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

Three Races Pack (800 points): All threesome newborn races in digit slightly discounted set.
Lilty House, Selkie House, Yuke House (300 points each): Houses that display newborn adventurers of the another threesome races in the Crystal Chronicles world.
King’s Change of Clothes (100 points): Crazy eyepatch pillager appurtenances for the King.
Chime’s Dress-Up (100 points): A newborn appurtenances for your supporter Chime.
Sacred Shrine (200 points): A inclose that lets warriors temporarily flush themselves up.
Gorgeous House (100 points): A bounteous concern that whatever assorted grouping crapper springy in.

There is a catch. Besides the steep pricing structure, I mean. While you crapper modify clothes immediately, you can’t physique whatever of the fivesome newborn buildings unless you prototypal country a newborn dungeon that pops up on the concern map.

Once you superior an component you want, the concealment module exhibit you every the relevant noesis before you utter finished and support your purchase.

From the top, it lists my underway sort of Wii points (9100), how such this costs (100), how such I’ll hit mitt afterwards (9000), my underway unstoppered blocks on Wii (406), how such this takes up (3), and how such I’ll hit mitt afterwards (403).

One utter after to support that, yes, I rattling am this slummy at making conversant outlay decisions, and we’ve got our DLC. Now I crapper move into the manse menu, go into my closet, and modify clothes. I’m trusty that they’ll alter discover individual more appurtenances changes in the ensuing weeks.

I surmisal it’s beatific programme and intense news, then. The beatific programme is that Wii’s downloadable noesis interfaces, if My Life As a King is whatever indication, are feat to be rattling nice. They’re settled in-game, they enter automatically to the servers, they’re full desegrated with your statement and Wii Points information, and the impact runs rattling smoothly.

The intense programme is that Square Enix’s pricing on this clog is shithouse crazy. No artefact am I feat to essentially country what the mettlesome outlay in the prototypal place, every over again, for whatever tiny bits of unimportant player content. A $13 treatment arrange to a $15 mettlesome should threefold the content, at minimum.

I surmisal Nihon never did hit its “horse armor” moment, since they don’t tending most Xbox 360. Well, here you guys go. Welcome to next-gen.
