11 Times Video Game DLC Lost Its Mind

1. The Sims 4 - DLC Within A DLC

The Sims has always been home to the weird and wonderful when it comes to DLC. Some have expanded the game beyond the reaches of the domestic space, where as others have added new elements in for your sims to work with.

Now, this is a game where DLCs have incorporated magic and vampires, but this choice was even mind boggling for The Sims standards.

The developers thought it was great to incorporate a DLC within a DLC! The My First Pet Stuff pack had objects that were only useable for those who had the Cats & Dogs expansion.

Obviously this caused ructions in the fanbase and sparked controversy, with some saying this should have been an element of the Cats & Dogs expansion initially.

The Sims has had a rocky road when it came to DLCs, but this choice was so left-field that it undoubtedly left a sour taste in fans' mouths for years to come.
