10 Games That Should Have Just Been DLC
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 чер 2024
- Honestly some of these barely count as complete games, let alone something we should have to pay full price or any amount of money for. For this list, we’ll be calling out the games that easily could have been paid or free DLC but were instead given a full release or worse, labeled as a sequel. In this video, these barely counted as full experience such as Halo 3: ODST, Infamous: Second Light, and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II and many others that deserve to hang their head in shame. What game or sequel were you tricked into buying that easily could have been DLC? Let us know in the comments.

ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 should be on this video
I don’t agree with your take uneducated guess on Mario Party The Top 100, I actually don’t mind it, it’s fine thank you very much, plus I wouldn’t get a Nintendo Switch when it was first released and I wasn’t in a rush to get the console quickly, I was doing fine with the 3DS and Xbox One by that point, Mojoplays, WatchMojo in general are a bunch of losers and want to make me upset in any way you people can.
To be fair on the Call of Duty series, most of the games have full campaigns that all different stories.
Farcry 3: Blood Dragon shouldve been on thia list. Don't agree with the cod take fully. I do think some of the titles could have been bundled into expansions for the previous title but not the ones that drastically change the gameplay.
Now do 10 DLCs That Should Have Been Full Games!
Don't give Publishers anymore ammo
Agreed 👍
Insert Phantom Liberty here.
You yes!!!
God of war, valhalla. At least make the norse saga a trilogy before you end it 😂
I don't mind Infamous First Light being a standalone game. It started Sony's streak of releasing smaller interquel games like Uncharted: Lost Legacy and Spider-Man Miles Morales. I honestly wish we'd get more games like this.
This! Would be perfect in-between Sony’s larger releases.
@@dottydukeexactlyyyy
I disagree about Assassin's Creed Mirage
Baghdad vibes are so different than Europe to be part of Valhalla.
Being smaller isn't bad, besides Valhalla was already too big
Exactly
To be fair, the Force Unleashed had three DLCs: The Jedi Temple and Ultimate Sith Edition. I do wish there was a Force Unleashed 3.
I think RE3 Remake could’ve been a DLC considering its length of the game, in my opinion.
Completely agree, it wasn’t a bad game by any means, just too short. Capcom justified the price by adding Resistance to it, which was mediocre at best.
Capcom needs to stop trying to make Resident Evil multiplayer. It just doesn’t work, and it’s not why people buy these games. It’s not Left 4 Dead or Dead by Daylight, nor should it try to be.
Spider-Man: Miles Morales
I enjoyed it but it really could have been just a DLC appetizer for Spider-Man 2
Every Sports game and Call of Duty game are just like "If people are going to willingly buy it, who are we to question it?"
I'm glad that Mirage was its own game. Much like Unity back in 2014, Mirage felt like a return to form for the series and a stark reminder that the Assassin's Creed series could still return to its roots after how much Odyssey and Valhalla deviated
Resident Evil 3 Remake should have been an expansion of Resident Evil 2. It was too short, and they cut too much out from the original, including the church level, the tentacled version of Nemesis and the Grave Digger. It was OK, but it wasn’t worth the price Capcom was asking for. They should have dedicated their time to making the game truer to the original rather than spending half of it on a mediocre multiplayer game nobody wanted.
I genuinly find it hard to believe people would buy a console to play call of duty and nothing but call of duty...
Well i know people that bought an xbox every generation to only play fifa so..
@@xandersander6369yeah, those people are the problem and you know it
Believe it! There are people that actually buy systems for games like Sports, Mario games, Grand Theft Auto, and yes, Call of Duty!
If they have the money for it; why not, I guess!?!
As a poor ass b*tch, I wish that my income is so disposable to even think about buying a console for one game.
I know several that only play COD.
i was gonna say if mw3 2023 wasn’t on here.. but the fact that EVERY cod is on here, touché 😂
Wasn't first light marketed and sold as a standalone dlc?
yes it was, you can buy that game without the 'base game' (second son), same as 'festival of blood'
Pretty much any time Atlus has done an enhanced Persona release
Far Cry New Dawn. It just felt like an expansion pack of Far Cry 5. It's pretty, and I'm up for a Far Cry style post-apocalyptic scenario, but it just felt like an expansion pack to me and not a full game.
Personally think that in regards to ODST, the main reason it came out as its own game instead of just being an add-on to Halo 3 was because Bungie (pre-fall from grace) decided to change the core mechanics of health & shields since lore-wise, ODSTs are no where near as tough or endurable as Master Chief (no augmentations or energy shields). Thus they changed certain core systems (like adding back health kits) to accommodate the lore accuracy.
Is it a short experience, sure. But given how it was just a smaller team behind it while most of Bungie were starting off on Reach, ODST was in a way meant to satisfy the Halo fandom & the Microsoft shareholders till Reach was ready.
I thought Overwatch 2 would be on the list, especially since it's just a F2P version of the original game. Then again, that could be saved for a "10 Games That Should've Just Been Updates" list.
Okay in defense of the Force Unleashed II, the game was being developed while Disney was buying Lucas Arts and the Star Wars properties, and Mouse was going to cancel any unfinished Games (perfect example being 1313) so the guys working on the game pretty much said F it, we're getting this out no matter what so if you want to be mad at someone for how the Force Unleashed II turned out, be mad at Disney for what they've done to Star Wars
It wasn't Disney's fault that The Force Unleashed 2 wasn't really well received by fans and critics. You're just finding another way just to be extremely toxic for the hell of it.
God remember playing force unleashed 2 thinking ahhh it's just getting going now then bang ended lol
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider should be included. It’s pretty much all but confirmed that it originally was going to be dlc for Dishonored 2. The game itself is decent, but the distribution is so scummy. It’s clearly a glorified dlc that they’ve sold for the same price as the original game, despite it having significantly less content.
R3make.
The game was so short, that 2 and 3 could've easily just been 1 long game.
Whoever said Crash Bandicoot needed to be a live service game should get checked for brain rot.
Funny enough, Halo 3: ODST was also originally intended to be dlc as well. Forgot the whole story behind the change tho. Its been awhile.
I'm surprised Resident Evil 3make didn't get a shout-out.
Disagree with Mirage. It's a completely different setting so it wouldn't make sense.
Back in the day when ODST dropped, no Xbox 360 download was even 1GB.
It probably SHOULD have been DLC but that wasn't an option back then.
If all you ever play is Call of Duty and ONLY Call of Duty, then you don’t get to deserve to play games
a guy i work with only plays c o d and wwe games.
Gaming is for everyone homie. Even idiots.
@@Nitemerican ehhhhh
I'm not one of these ppl, but who tf are u to gatekeep gaming? U just sound moronic
I liked both force unleashed games I'm sad a 3rd game isn't being made
The 2nd was almost going to get cancelled because of Disney. You’re lucky that it was even released.
You’re gonna get roasted on the thumbnail alone. Infamous last light was a dlc. It was sold for $15. It was sold separately because suckerpunch is like-we want you to play this even if you don’t have the game, if you like this buy the game.
Metal Slug X (1999) I'd Love To Play Metal Slug 2 (1997) but I had a fun time with that game as a matter of fact I loved the Metal Slug franchise
i thought that first light was a dlc
It is, but they later released it stand-alone for some reason
Yeah I bought it as the stand-alone when it was on sale; it was actually the first Infamous game that I had played at that point. It was only a few years later when Infamous and Infamous 2 were available as PS Plus freebies that I got around to playing them.
If i remember correctly, Infamous 1st light was only around $10 and it was kind of a prequel, so it didn't really spoil any major plot points in Infamous 2. It could've been DLC, but I dont think it really hurt being a standalone either
I always said Halo 3 ODST should have been DLC. That game had no business being a $60 game
TLOZ: TOTK should have been a dlc and you can't change my mind.
Ac mirage is actually good 8.7
Y'all must not research these vids ahead of time. ODST WAS a DLC at one point, but was converted to a standalone for 1 of 2 reasons. Bungie higher ups say Microsoft made them, but there were rumblings that it was so they could count it as a full release to fill contractual obligation to MS and get away from them faster
I know multiple people who only played First Light (cough better game than Second Son cough) BECAUSE it was a stand alone game; they wouldn’t have touched it if it was DLC.
Ultra Street Fighter 4 should be on here
Shadows of Rose DLC feels like teen horror drama and Rose Winters feels like Ellie from The Last of Us
"The only gripe we have is with the game's length."
Yeah, that's why it's called a stand-alone expansion.
Resident Evil 3 Remake lasts less than me after not seeing my girlfriend for 3 weeks . It feels like it could have been a DLC from 2 Remake.
Infamous First Light should have been a Vita game.
resident evil 3 remake should be on here
Great video
WM: "Why did we need 4 releases of the same exact game?"
Also WM: "Give us rereleases of all of these games you haven't rereleased yet because we can't be bothered plugging the last gen console in."
Guitar Hero Smash Hits was a perfect example. A new game that just brought old songs from previous games that could have been dlc songs
Street Fighter been doing this since SF2
So much irony with the Force Unleashed franchise. The first game was a great game if playing on the cross platform HD consoles, but the Wii version was a butchered port. But for Force Unleashed 2, the opposite was true. It was seen as an inferior sequel if you played most versions, but the Wii version had a more unique twist on the story that made more sense. And the gameplay also had more innovative features; specially motion controls working really well with the duel lightsabers. Also, the competitive multiplayer mode was actually fun in that version, even if it was subpar with Smash bros.
Also, Call of Duty at #2 and every Sports franchise at #1, I agree since every single entry just feels like overpriced shovelware that are essentially copy/pastes of the same game. But I hate those franchises and the companies that make them to the point where I wish they would just die at this point.
Thumbnail shows literal DLC. First Light was a stand alone DLC thst was $15 same thing like last of us left behind or Asassijs Creed Freedom cry among others. Straight up DLC just not tied to being in the main games file though some had tge option to just be bought and played from the games they were DLC's for file.
In fairness to InFamous Last Light, it was the price of a DLC anyways. I kinda like how it was detatched from the main game. Being able to launch it separately, different trophies to reach plat, etc.
The Force Unleashed 1 and 2 should have been mixed, because the story is enough in one game, but you keep the best aspects of both.
Sports games all go down in value quickly because they have a new every year
..also
Spider-man Miles Morales could have easily been an expansion for 2018s Spider-man but nope it had to be a full priced game for the PS5.
RC Quest for Booty should also have been DLC for Tools of Destruction
Should do top 10 unfair JRPGs
Shockingly, I played Force Unleashed 2 on the Wii and PS3 (2nd) and the Wii is way longer :O
You still don't fight Boba Fett or do certain things
How about some time stamps MojoPlays? They would greatly appreciated. 🙏
My favourite Desd or Alive 5
Infamous First Light and Spider-Man Miles Morales were standalone DLC. Kinda like Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon
I can understand the sports yearly releases. But only the ones that have retired players. You have to have rights to those players. If you lose those rights it doesn't make sense to have them deleted from the game. I don't necessarily think $70 for them makes sense. But I at least understand the need for yearly releases.
“Far cry new dawn” It should have been added to “Far Cry 5” since the map was smaller.
I have to disagree with force unleashed 2 and Assassin's creed mirage
8:52 my thoughts exactly! CoD should’ve implement this a long time ago
Honorable mention: Gears of War Judgement. Prequel to GoW 1. Story nor characters are that interesting and thus feels more like filler till Gears 4
A big one you forgot was Spider man Miles morales
AC Mirage was actually fun,sure they could've released with a lot more content in the base version and had more post launch content,but I had fun with it,I only paid $30 on Amazon last month,took my time with it,did everything before I finished it 💯 and it took me about 24-25hrs to complete,not bad for my $30,hopefully the next AC is better and has way more content in it like Valhalla and Odyssey,I can only hope at this point though lol
Wasn't first light a dlc originally, then released on its own later?
No saints row 4 and sf4?? Also, the older cod games had a great story mode and were increasingly getting better with each title until I'd say cod ghosts. Then the newer ones came on the market, with all the dlcs, cosmetics, and microtransactions, and the cycle just continues till this day, also, cod mw 1-2 the new ones aren't that bad either.
8:39 probably becasue people were already annoyed that valhalla had another dlc which you had to separately buy since the season pass didn't cover it and doing that again will probably cause either people demand ubisoft to update the season pass to cover those games or not buy it if it was DLC.
Sounds like mojo hates on sports and cod. This channel just loves souls games and jrpgs.
I'm sorry I disagree.I thought the Force unleashed 2 was a good game and made perfect sense. And had a leaning into a third game with the Post credit scene.
Infamous first light “Sucker punch said they had fun developing the game”, yet they haven’t touched infamous since and because of ghost of Tsushima, I doubt they’ll even think of infamous any time soon
Spiderman Miles morales can easy be a DLC with the story length
This vid is just spit balling facts 😅😂, also where's Miles Morales 🙄😕
TotK could have been a dlc, $30-$40 sized one
Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 should've been dlc. I bought the vanilla version and the 2 already on disc dlc characters on that only for Ultimate to come out later with all the characters I actually wanted
Spiderman Miles Morales. Too short of a game, even for $50 launch
I'm surprised no Fifa was shown in the sports section???
I honestly always thought first light was a dlc
I got 1 more because I think it was meant to be one but was pushed out as a full game to be a ps5 launch title.
SPIDERMAN: Miles moralis
Tears of the Kingdom anyone? I may be a die hard Zelda fan girl but I know that Tears of the Kingdom should've been DLC.
Edit: Whoever made this list has some issues because TOTK DESERVED to be on this list and it's not.
Actually, virtua fighter 5 had 3 re releases. Final showdown, ultimate showdown and vr. And it was ultimate showdown that came out for ps4. Not final showdown.
Stupid picks for First Light and Mirage too, as FL is considered a DLC but u can get it standalone, similar to AC4 Freedom Cry, and Mirage is such a different style game to Valhalla, billed as a return to classic gameplay, AND wasnt even full price.
Redo top 10 DLCs
Every Fifa/FC released each year.
I never liked sports games to start with. My dad used to play Madden NFL back in the day, and yeah, I'd watch him play them, even offered me to play one, but I rejected. As far as Call of Duty, fuck CoD. No offense to the people that actually do like Call of Duty, but I lost respect for the series overtime. I nowadays prefer Ace Combat, as Ace Combat has been very near and dear to my heart since I was 12!
1:31 Pedro pascal?!
wwe2k24 the only change was no faction wars more providing grounds @@@@ providing grounds and timers on packs
Assassin's Creed Rogue should've been dlc for 3
I can tell you a few games that should've been dlc;
Ratchet and clank quest for booty
Gran Turismo 7
Spider man miles morales
Spider-Man to felt like just an extension of Miles Morales
Spider-Man 2 is a great sequel to the original and Miles Morales and it is does not feel like DLC, that many gamers like yourself think.
@@jsutton0010 it’s essentially a bloated DLC. Peter got nerfed so the spotlight could be on miles and MJ
@@MegaSheen15 Well I disagree. I think the sequel is a great Spider-Man game, that's more than just DLC. I enjoyed playing as both.
Just make cod story for new games a just one game for just online maches so when a gamer doesn't want to play online with people they can buy a nice shooter cheap.
Every call of duty 😂
2k and Actvision knows how to drain peoples pockets. Just keep making same game, but different rosters, slightly better graphics, and different campaign mode. That’s why I NEVER PLAY 2k games and/or CoD
Mario Party Superstar is just Mario Party the Top 100 but actually done right. So there is no reason to play the top 100
Honestly ac mirage is the only game that deserves to be a full game it’s built like a classic ac game would not have made sense to do it as a dlc
How about Far Cry: New Dawn. It's literally the only Far Cry game that followed a previous one. And it's essentially the exact same game. So why bother with its own release?
Need to do ur research mate, cos thats the formula every FC game has followed. FC3 comes out, then Blooddragon follows and is essentially a big DLC for it. FC4 comes out, and Primal follows with the same map, then FC5 comes out and we get New Dawn.
@@Frost4Real In my defense, I've only played the two entries.
I would understand this in the times of cartridges and no consoles with store capacity.you have to launch a new update because there wasnt another way.now? This is a joke
Still sucks that Dead or Alive 7 got cancelled
I didn’t even know they were making DoA7
Huh? Since when did they announced they were cancelled it when we NEVER got any official confirmation they were working on it
Sauce or STFU with your bullshit please
Dude, now I gotta make a second comment. Jesus. Thinking AC Mirage should've been a Valhalla DLC misses the point of Mirage. It was meant to be a throw back to AC2, where it was a full complete game that wasn't a 100+ hr RPG. Research before you blast a game dude.
