Dan Bull - DLC PLC Lyrics






Downloadable content's a load of nonsense
I won't give them one cent
It wouldn't be conscientious
Encouraging dodgy ventures
Like when you've been robbed
Do you get your property straight back from the fences?
I wanna know what the defence is
Hence this musical census
Pay attention to community consensus
To prevent this backlash of hashtags
And truly contentious lambasts, e.g.
"I hope you're shoving your Prothean
Up your fallopian"
No wonder the planet's becoming dystopian
Draconian Napoleons invoking pandemonium
And I might be blowin' my own euphonium
By quotin' this
But I know I'm not the only one that's pissed
My data's trapped inside the disc
Sat in lines of script
And I have to pay to take it out
What kind of shit is this?

It's the DLC PLC
Where we make money sellin' people
Things that were free
Welcome to the DLC PLC
Where we charge you for things
You bought previously

No need to be dishonest
The incompleted product's a piece of bollocks
So please give me the pieces of it
And leave my wallet, I need the dollars
But don't be extremely bothered
I'll probably buy the sequel of it
'Cause that's the key
The reason it keeps on happening, it's obvious
If you pay them quids they take the piss
And get away with it
Until they're pinchin' all your paper
Like a paperclip
"And what would our forefathers
Have thought of horse armor?
It's all rather an awful palaver
Perhaps I should make a call and talk to Obama"
You're causing drama
And according to the laws of karma
Stir the water, sure enough
Of course you'll taunt the poor piranhas
So try to pull my jaws apart
I'm sure you can't
I'm sinkin' my teeth into the greed
Inherently buried in DLC things
Hidden fees and prices surprising me like bee stings
"Is it any wonder we punters are seething"

At the DLC PLC
Where we make money sellin' people
Things that were free
Welcome to DLC PLC
Where we charge you for things
You bought previously

I'm sorry, but Verse 3 is only available in the Premium version of this song
If you would like to acquire the Premium version
Then please bend over with your VISA, American Express or MasterCard lodged tightly between your buttocks
Thank you for your continued loyalty
From everybody

At the DLC PLC
Where we make money sellin'
People things that were free
Welcome to DLC PLC
Where we charge you for things
You bought previously

The DLC PLC
The DLC PLC

Downloadable content... what is it? What use does it have? What function does it serve? I mean, obviously I know the answer, but it's a sort of rhetorical question I suppose. So maybe you think about it whether... whether it's good for the gaming community, whether it's good for the industry, what your thoughts about it are. I'm very keen to know!

  1. f.... ....

    This needs a loot box-themed sequel

  2. N.... ....

    DLC. Those were the days..

  3. T.... T....

    Borderlands has great dlc

  4. A.... C....

    7 years later and still a relatable banger

    A.... C....

    Alanna Cussons i’m surprised people forgot about the song for the most part

  5. L.... ....

    I have been listening to this song with GLEE..DLC.... for a long time, but im surprised it isn't more popular, with the current climate and all. You should really reupload it!

  6. D.... M....

    EU VIM PARAR AQUI PORQUE EU VI ESSE VIDEO NA PLAYLIST DO SAIKO

  7. s.... ....

    see, I partly agree with this song. while I do believe that games like Battlefront and every other Ubisoft and EA game is extremely excessive, I also find DLC a way to add content to a game that is still doing great. look at Nintendo, adding the DLC passes to there games, where you pay one time and get all past and future ones. I'm just saying, if a game adds bonus content for money, that's acceptable, but if it locks things integral to the game behind a DLC, that called a paywall and is not. I'm squishy, thanks for coming to my TED talk.

  8. T.... C....

    To unlock this comment you can purchase it for $20

  9. A.... F....

    _In the words of Jim Fucking Sterling Son: give the triple AAA industry an inch, they will not only take a mile, _*_but the entire fucking piss._*

  10. M.... ....

    he needs to stop licking broccoli

  11. m.... m....

    I like dlc

  12. S.... ....

    The only DLC that is fine is 1. If it's not fifty bucks for only one character and/or a character you can unlock through a hard process 2. If the DLC comes out a while after the game and not with the game 3. If the DLC doesn't seem like a quick cash-grab. When I make games I'll make them cheap and put them on Steam, I will make DLC, but it'll be like another story that's shorter than the main game, fo example a mining exhibition gone wrong with monsters in the caves, new story, new mechanics, cheaper than the main game, announced months of main game's release, then released moths after announcement

  13. J.... N....

    YouTube is working in your favor my friend. I just had this appear in my recommendations, and I am not disappointed.

  14. A.... ....

    Remember when DLC were considered the industry's low-point? Now, where did I put those anti-depressants...

  15. C.... L....

    Several years later, DLC, still around. Some of it good, some of it bad. Definitely misused, but those companies aren't do so well right now.

  16. D.... B....

    dan, are you suggs (madness) son?

  17. G.... R....

    Maan...Dan and everyone else here was so innocent. They weren't ready for how bad dlc is going to get.

  18. S.... ....

    This song gets more and more relevant every day

  19. H.... ....

    6 years later and it's just now after hitting it's worst governments are cracking down on that shit

  20. T.... ....

    Little did he know... it would only get worse

  21. G.... ....

    Finished fallout 3 came here instantly after I found my 66 hours of work needs the broken steel dlc to play past the FUCKING END MISSION! That would be like Skyrim but after you kill Alduin you are stuck in Soverngaurd till you buy the Dragonborn dlc

    (Dragonborn is not bad I'm just saying it would be bullshit)

  22. D.... ....

    so... does anyone know what PLC means yet...

  23. L.... S....

    dan what is Plc Stand for

  24. L.... S....

    awesome song buddy

  25. A.... S....

    超懷念的歌

  26. D.... T....

    I thought that he was gonna hum the Pink Panther song at first

  27. T.... ....

    It's been a good five years since I've listened to this, why do I remember almost every word.

  28. S.... F....

    Any Paradox Interactive title.

  29. O.... C....

    2018 anyone?

  30. S.... D....

    *P A R A D O X I N T E R A C T I V E N E E D S A B E T T E R P O L I C Y*

  31. P.... P....

    @Dan Bull. You look like a weird guy. Not weird looking but you look like if we were hanging out in person in public, you would be weird as hell. I hope I am right lol. If not either. Keep up the great work lol

  32. b.... a....

    Holy shit this is a nostalgia trip

  33. T.... ....

    I think DLC's are made for the right reasons but the way they are sold to us are the wrong reasons

  34. L.... P....

    The "buy verse 3" joke is just sad after what happened to Net neutrality :c still fucking adore this song tho

  35. E.... M....

    This song is 6 years old but could be made today that would make even more sense

  36. g.... ....

    I have my card in my butt, but it won't let me buy the premium version of this song

  37. S.... 1....

    We need a micro transactions rap so its more relevant to now XD

  38. T.... L....

    This song is one of the best raps in my opinion. I call it a "dad joke rap".

  39. S.... F....

    And it's still relevant 5 years later.

  40. P.... ....

    Little did he know it would get so much worse. *Cough* EA *Cough*

  41. B.... B....

    Play Monster hunter. Everything's free over there.

  42. t.... M....

    Well who thought shit could get worse

  43. K.... ....

    Ah the good old days we only had DLC. True nostalgia.

  44. S.... ....

    DLC? Oh boy, Dungeon Defenders is your best example.

  45. R.... K....

    We need a loot box song!

    R.... K....

    They should remove Loot Boxes from PC players, leaving them in console where they belong.

  46. 1.... ....

    Need another one like this for microtransactions and lootboxes.

  47. I.... N....

    I wonder if the "P" in PLC stands for "Paid Mods"?

  48. T.... N....

    * Glares at Paradox *

  49. S.... ....

    Talking about PS+ and XBOX GOLD...

  50. H.... A....

    EUIV. No need to say more.

  51. S.... ....

    the song is better than the topic

  52. T.... T....

    what does plc stand for?

  53. h.... w....

    in Canada we literally can't give one cent because we don't use pennies

  54. j.... b....

    I had to click mystery vid

  55. O.... C....

    @ParadoxInteractive

  56. T.... M....

    This is why Overwatch and Titanfall 2 are so good.

  57. P.... G....

    Downloadable content of Polish-Lithuanian Comonwealth.

  58. G.... K....

    AKA: Microsoft Flight Simulator 10: Steam Edition...

  59. E.... A....

    231 dislikes from greedy DLC makers

  60. g.... ....

    Unfortunately this still happens because people still pay for it

  61. D.... T....

    why do you keep popping up in my feed
    go away

  62. D.... ....

    Is this a song about Destiny, because it seems like the whole game is a DLC

  63. M.... K....

    hey I did the thing, where's the 3rd verse?

  64. S.... P....

    what does PLC mean?

    S.... P....

    public limited company

  65. P.... ....

    overkill fits this category :D

    P.... ....

    LiL MoNsTeR no

  66. R.... H....

    I like how boogie2988 shakes his body.

  67. I.... M....

    I'm normally okay with DLC, so long as it's free. Having said that, I'm not a fan of having to pay for it. Fortunately, some games are now 'giving' us DLC as a freebee.

  68. O.... M....

    My feelings about Mass Effect Andromeda

  69. A.... ....

    Bethesda DLC are pretty good though. They are entire new games pretty much.

  70. S.... N....

    the crazy part is that this song is still relevant today even though its 4 years old

    S.... N....

    yep Breath of the dlc

  71. M.... S....

    most held back game ever, destiny

  72. T.... ....

    Thank god for games like Witcher 3 who actually gives free dlc and actual content with the dlc that you pay for

  73. H.... O....

    Dan looks really beautiful with the white&black filter ^^

  74. M.... I....

    I like how he talked about the horse armor from oblivion that didn't really do much... WHAT THE FUCK BETHESDA? ?!?!?!?!?!!

    M.... I....

    1:36 if you didn't know where it was

  75. L.... #....

    Quem Veio Pela Plalist de Gostei Do Saiko

  76. M.... T....

    Hey but dragonborn DLC was awesome

  77. H.... ....

    Where is the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth DLC? sounds cool af

  78. J.... H....

    TITANFALL 2 BITCHES!

  79. T.... ....

    TAKE MY MONEY DAN!!!!

  80. K.... ....

    I agree you rather put the dlc in the game for free or just don't have it

  81. M.... S....

    The naughty dog song.

    M.... S....

    Sure, 3 DLC per every uncharted game, and no dlc for any other game.. "The naughty dog song." definitely.. /sarcasm

    M.... S....

    @Eminemfan1337 "no dlc for any other game" the last of us left behind dlc that explains plot point, 14 dollars....k m8...
    also fucking 10000000 different types of clothing, maps, and op weapons in all uncharted games and the last of us....so yeah, definitely../not sarcasm.

  82. V.... T....

    I remember hearing this more than 4 years ago... So good. The song, not paid dlc

  83. C.... M....

    I am love song

  84. T.... ....

    YEAH! Boogie fresh from The Game Awards!

  85. M.... L....

    only ever bought three dlc in my life, but then it was the goty skyrim so really, never bought dlc.

  86. g.... ....

    I'm fine with DLC if it's done in a way such as the binding of Isaac afterbirth where you already have hundreds of hours of gameplay without it, but you can buy it if you want to get another few hundred hours from it

    g.... ....

    That's more of an expansion than a DLC. A DLC is more like paying $5 for a couple of guns/items/attachments etc

  87. b.... ....

    What is PLC though?

    b.... ....

    boekie98 In technical business terms, PLC is a just a name given to a certain type of company. I think he just used it because it rhymes

  88. T.... g....

    This guy the american Krisztián Molnár?

    T.... g....

    Thevirus gaming he's British

    T.... g....

    Sorry I don't know!

  89. V.... .....
