In recent gaming news, Gun Media has added new dlc (downloadable content) to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre: The Game. Most of the dlc is cometic skins for the in-game characters but the most surprising part about it is the pricing, with some of the dlc, such as the Leatherface cosmetic bundle, costing almost half of the base games price.

Moreover, the future character packs are also an apparent problem for the state of the game, with many players stating that paying for characters is inherently pay to win and will increase the already bad lobby dodging issue. Gun Media has yet to address the concerns and seemingly has no intention to. For more information about the backlash watch BloodThirstyLord’s video about it:
The lobby dodging issue was already a problem with the game beforehand due to the way lobby searching has been implemented, forcing players to play as a character that they don’t want to play as which leads to many just leaving matches. With the upcoming character packs this problem will worsen, with people not being able to play as the dlc characters that they paid for.

The game has only been out for 3 months, coming out August 18th, and with the clear lack of content it’s not hard to see that Gun Media will struggle to keep its player base for the game unless they are willing to change for the better.
