Its a great game but you have to buy into then have to face the reality that expansions come separately or in the form of a subscription. which means either buy the DLC you want right out the gate (high $ single buy) or (subscribe low $ every month) if i were u i would save about 300$ to buy DLC, expansions, and other essential items right out the gate. Or 15$ a month getting expansions but not the essential items. either way if u plan on playing a long time prepare your wallet $$$$$$$$.
