That doesn't follow from my logic. That would be the same DLC logic I criticized, regarding the intention and the quality. And I'm sure a group of players does notice if an Add-On is a serious attempt to extend, alter or overall improve the game or just an alibi to earn more money.
What my mods offer wouldn't be more than a package of features that should have been implemented by patches (if they were considered necessary) or by EE as a small part of the whole.


you did not understand: i would make a "normal add on" (in your terms) and just include also dlc-content. and for that package i would charge <price of add on> + <price of all dlcs (maybe a small discount>. and for sure nobody would notice because nobody knew that i put dlc-content into the add-on and nobody knew what the "only-add-on-price" would have been.

i would say that is the way normal add-ons are made btw, b/c the price of a product is ultimately made up of the costs of all parts, including features that could have been sold as small dlc
