I completely understand people's point in not wanting to pay for him, I get that. I just think, in my opinion, that wanting/demanding that such a character should be free is greedy and ludicrous. I'm not saying that the people are ludicrous, I'm saying the idea about having him be free is. Just to clarify if people think I'm insulting them.
But I don't think it should really make a big deal about him being a paid DLC if he is to return as a DLC. I don't see him being thrown in a pack as a free bonus, I see him just being what he was during 2011. And if you don't want to pay for him, then don't. You might not like the fact that he's available to be played but you have to pay to play as him, but if you stand by your right to not want to slap a few bucks down, stand by your point. If others are willing to pay for him again, then pay.
I just don't like some of the greediness. No character is THAT special enough to become free to everyone. That's just not really fair.
