When I go on to Steam there's a heap of different versions of DRG: vanilla, Dwarven Legacy, Master Edition, Deluxe Edition.

I don't want to over buy a new game but at the same time, dislike not being able to do stuff because it's in a DLC.

What does the hive mind recommend?

DLCs are just skins for armour and guns. They are considered optional ways to 'donate'/support further development, and the devs thank you by giving you a few custom items, and making your name gold in chat so other players know you're a supporter. That's it.

Not only is there is no gameplay locked to DLCs, by far almost all the cosmetics are completely free, and always in-game. Battlepasses are free, and unearned cosmetics go into the loot pool for free. Hundreds of cosmetics to craft for free, hundreds upon hundreds that drop from mission chests.

Oh awesome, thanks for the info.

Oddly, the lack of microtransactions makes me want to support the Devs more!
