It's just a parts pack, and thus mostly ignorable. An actual expansion adds to gameplay, and those are the ones to buy.

So, realistically, we can expect that those who buy this parts pack will be uploading creatures with the new parts, and people who don't have the parts pack will not be able to download those creatures. Or, if the parts pack in any way changes the version number of their SporeApp.exe, we can probably expect the inability to download ANY creatures uploaded by people who have purchased the pack.

So begins the purchase pressure. Do you really not want the parts pack? Do you not want it enough to sacrifice access to the better portion of new content uploaded every day?

It's like crack dealers playing games with addicted purchasers. They know that enough people will eventually break down and buy it, just so they're not denied access to any new content.

It's almost as bad as micropayments.

They already lost a substantial amount of players actually.

Wait, how does adding more options, some of which cost money, equal lost players? It's not like someone else having an upgraded version makes my unupgraded version any worse, or that the extra parts would give them any gameplay advantage over the stock parts. Besides, we don't even know how sharing creatures with parts from a parts pack will work, so there's no need to start crucifying people over idle speculations.

What can even be added?

-Spore Legs-

"Do you ever get bored with your *laughter* TINY collection of 12 legs on your creature creator? Now you won't have to sufffer! We have 12 new very simillar legs! So similar, you won't even notice the differace!

Coming up next, a super pack!

Think a one part pack is no big deal? What if we tell you... it has 5 limbs!?!"

For those of you who complain about spore and thinks about new things, concepts, and adjustments:

You all have great ideas for new things and changes. But all of them would just make my currect super great game guide even crappier than it is currectly. Really.
