Will DST RoG content will be free for RoG owners?


Recommended Posts

Im not sure about buying RoG for DS because i don't know if RoG for DST will be free for DS RoG owners.

 

So the question is, Will RoG content for DST will be free for all? WIll it be a new DLC for DST? or will it be free for DST RoG owners?

 

 

That'll be quite hard, for those that don't have RoG content bought, as other people who don't have RoG, could get in a sticky situation for us. However, in some games for example, they would have the RoG content already installed on the game, and make it so it isn't accessible for people who haven't bought it, in some kind of special way... Or make those server inaccessible for those who don't have RoG. Simple and cheap for developers of DST to use the second option, but option 1 would be much more preferable.

 

However, It may as well be free for owners of RoG for the original DS, as they would do the same thing when they released DST for free for those that had the original DS, which is pretty much the same concept. We're not quite sure yet, because of the lack of information Klei has given us about RoG, that is coming soon.

 

Most of it will. Creating RoG worlds and picking the RoG characters is going to be for RoG owners only from what Klei has said.

Thanks to both of you.

The thing is that i would like to read an answer from an official klei crew member.

The thing is im just undecided about buying RoG for the DST availability, 

@gREENNNNN,

Yeah, you'll get RoG for free in DST. Everyone can join RoG servers,

but only owners of RoG can host them and use the characters.

@, I dunno, @nome, could you confirm this please?

 

Thank you so much,

 

If @nome confirm this i will buy RoG a few mins after ^^

What devs have said is that RoG will be implemented in DST as a default thing. You won't have Vanilla DST, so if you own DST, you don't need RoG at all, unless you want to play RoG single player. Devs were planning on letting the RoG owners to have the RoG characters in DST as an extra, which would be the only difference, but there's already a mod of those two characters, so, it's a shame.

 

I know devs wanted to let people play with each other even if someone made a RoG world and someone wanted to join but didn't have RoG, but that doesn't mean that non-RoG owners should be able to MAKE RoG worlds. It would benefit devs more, but if they give stuff for free like this and are a stable company, then I'm not complaining.

Hope is like you're saying

Klei will officially add RoG characters, thus making the mods that adds those character obsolete on that update, if its not the next update. Plus, the company is tight on resources, as I heard of. So they might not add RoG for free if those that haven't bought it for the original DS. It would be good for us, but not for Klei, if I'm correct. 

 

Exactly  :-) -- as for RoG, our current plan is to fold the expansion into the base experience of Don't Starve Together and provide a world customization preset that mimics vanilla Don't Starve as closely as possible. RoG characters in DST will only be available to folks who own RoG.

 

Unless it has been changed recently, that is a personal  quote from a DS:T developer.  I believe Seth has even mention this in past DS:T live streams on Twitch, but that a little bit harder to nail down.
