So first of all, this is a Review from when i buyed it and now at the March update, where DLC's are added to add more music.

So let me state what the Devs are doing first:

The Devs think that they would be able to add more spice to the game if you could play Songs that are from songmakers but you also help them in their musical career, thats atleast how i see it and that in itself is actually a really nice thing.
They not only give their game some more content to the non modded state of the game but even give some of their revenue to the people making the music they use as they need money to keep making music and you dont even have to buy the dlc if you dont like dlc's...
Keep just in mind that there are things you need to do, like licensing for music, to even add new content to the game.


So after this short explanation i come to the game as it is right now:

The game is really fun and you can add mods without problems and the devs even help the modders and learn from them from what i have seen in their current updated OST V1 Songs as the patterns changed, which is really nice.
The Standard songlist that is given is not much and the dlc expands this a bit but they got already a really nice amount of songs that i personally find very fitting into the game and as such it is also a very positive aspect, except that if you want like 400-idk how many songs exist alrdy then you can install the mod for that and as long as they dont add the songs from the dlc's (which would be understandable underhanded) to their custom songs i dont think there will be any conflict.


For myself, i love this game and hope it will continue its pass as i saw the new UI and Campain, i hope there will be Campains from the Community that will also be playable. I give my thanks to the Developers as they are the ones that brought such a nice Game to us and i hope the Reviews will state FACTS and not just be like "I dont like DLC's" as they are needed if you want to add music that needs licensing to be added to the Base-Game so please dont just "not recommend" it with just like "I dont like DLC's" and such as these are undefended Arguments that you as users cant even know if they even get the money for themselfs or need it to pay the creators of the music.

Keep updating this game into the State you want it to be Devs and i hope i will see more of this nice content!
I will keep my eyes out for the DLC's as they not only help the development but also the creators of this music as you probably need to pay them some part of the DLC's costs as licensing money.
