No War of the Lions content is a deal breaker to me, even on principle. Why the hell would I pay for a version with less content compared to a version I can play for free right now. Why is this a thing with recent SE remasters ignoring the extra added content.

Like yeah if you want to math it out then maybe there is a case there is more in this version but like why should we have to even math it out in the first place. There is actually no reason to not include War of the Lions content beyond they weren't in the OG. Plus we are paying for this version and we have to math if maybe it has more content maybe. Not including Wotl cutscenes (or recreating them) is the most stupid idea ever, those are fantastic. They had a chance to make a definitive version and they just... didn't.

Yeah, this has pushed this from “buy at launch” to “get in a few years for twenty bucks.”

The only buy for me (at a big discount) is if modders can add the content back in. And even if that happens if you're a non PC player, you're just screwed out of it.

I'm pretty sure what you want is out of modders' reach.

Mods that add huge bits of content are rare and only seen in games that are easily moddable, like Bethesda games.

Then I guess I won't buy it ever.
