DLC is any additional content package on top of the primary game. For example, there was a skip discovered involving clipping using an HD Texture package that is offered for free. However, it is not included in the base game (even on Steam) and is considered illegal for that reason. You can untick the DLC in the steam configuration or manually remove the files (https://steamcommunity.com/app/202170/discussions/0/846945955286761354/).

Sorry for the late reply

Personally I think it should be made legal. Main reason is definitive edition comes with all DLC and the highroller pack allows for a massive time advantage making this whole thing stupid in the first place.

Base version is more glitchy and would allow for more tricks in the long run and I think this is the one we should focus on. The question is more should the highroller pack be allowed in base as in general all dlc as the same as definitive edition?

EDIT: Okay definitive Edition comes with pay to win outfits from the legendary clothes seller. One gives you 60% more powerful punches one makes weapons 50% more accurate and these are able to be bought for 10000 ingame currency. In the base game if you have that DLC it is just gifted you. Many other ouffits have boosts. Some need to be unlocked making them uninteresting but the once that you get access and a buff immediately is a huge problem.

Same with the traid and coop score booster both in silver and gold form.

They are a serious problem. And the only way to counteract it is by making it illegal. Including the defintive edition.

It's like in a CIV Speedrun where Babylon is the best civ for a science victory but it is DLC. Should that also be not allowed?

Of course not. The problem with games nowadays being blatant pay to win and goming pay to win mechanics is that you need to abuse them if you want to win and if a preoder bonus leads to the fastest time sadly this how it is. If you dont want that, you cant run the game really or run it your way.

I want to experimente with this pay to win mechanics to see how much it breaks the game. It would also be a great showing why such DLC and stuff shouldnt be included. Ever. But it is and we have to deal with it and accept it.
