I'd prefer XIII-3 than DLCs. That ending deserves a game not a DLC. Really liked the characters in this game (Serah, Noel, Yeul and Caius). Hope was pretty cool too. Mog was annoying.

Caius is one of my favorite FF villians.

In a way you do - the DLC is clearly an integral part of the game that was developed alongside the actual game.
What would you like if they ripped out the entire Renegade part of Mass Effect 2 and made you pay for it? "I'm sorry but you can't see the renegade storyline/ending without paying extra".
I'd say "**** you in the neck, *******s". Which is exactly what anyone who cares slightly about the future of gaming should do here.

Or a vehicle manufacture has the 19" rims extra instead of the 16's, as clearly the rims were designed along side and intandem with the car, or even the cigarete lighter or multi disk changer.

The Alternative Ending is just that, an Alternative and fully Optional ending. You dont need it to enjoy the game. A person could skip it and be just fine.

Your example is just far off, they do not require the purchase of the DLC, and not getting the DLC has no effect on the persons gameplay, UNLESS they want to see the OPTIONAL and ALTERNATIVE / EXTRA ending or features.

Game Expansion packs do the same thing. Even sequels, i dont see people up in arms for Diablo III being pay as its continuing the storylien of previous Diablos.

Heck Blizzard even did that with SCII. They are releacing expansions to finish the storyline of the Protos and Zerg. Nobody is up in arms over that, they are preordering it and drooling over it

* edit - but all in all im still completing FFXIII and refusing to play FFXIII-2 untill i beat the first, havent even put the disk in my PS3 yet

I think some people are arguing that the ending you get is intentionally weak so you're compelled to go out and buy the DLC to get a more satisfying ending. If that is the case, it is pretty ****ty of them to do.

If that is the case then yea i would have to "kinda " agree, but not fully, as it could just be like the harry potter movies and left that way to allow FFXIII-3
