Mate give it a rest, stop simping for bad business practices.
This is exactly like any other version of a game that comes out with more than one SKU (bonus items). Only this time the guy that got it for FREE in advance wrote about how he didn't understand he wasn't getting bonus items. He then writes a hit piece stating even though he didn't read, he should be entitled to those items because he didn't know about them, even though he didn't read (and his copy was in advance of release and FREE). It's basically a story of entitlement, and how a reviewer has created a non-story over his.
I don't care about what excuses you want to make for this bullshit. Stop defending these anti-consumerist practices, you are not the company, you do not benefit from them making millions from selling lazy arse DLC that is just basic game features paywalled off.
It's bonus items from the Deluxe addition, nothing is "paywalled off". It's the same as any other game with more than one SKU at release. This guy just feels entitled to something and so he cried about it his review, and the internet is standing up for his entitlement, you apparently included. Funny how everyone is upset they didn't read, and are standing with the guy that got free stuff and apparently didn't get enough so he is throwing a fit about it. So stop defending entitled assholes, we should be naming and shaming them.
