Since we’ve mentioned it, complete edition upgrades can also feel like they’re baiting you into spending more money on a game you already own, especially if you decided to skip out on a DLC pack here and there.

Complete Editions hit the same sore points as a lot of other entries on this list, they can make you feel like you have to re-buy the game, they guilt you into believing you’re saving money, or that by not buying them you’re missing out on the definitive experience.

While they can be a great buy if you never actually bought the base game or manage to nab them on sale, they’re otherwise often seen as a cash grab.
