It always amuses me when people pretend that RMTs did not exist until Oblivion. Even contemporary games like Neverwinter Nights had already been selling DLC campaigns/“campaigns”. Let alone the early digital distribution games (Strategy First can fuck themselves for the price they sold stuff at but…)

And that also ignores how many “dos” games would have a kill screen that was basically “Send a check to this PO Box and I’ll give you access to the FTP server with more missions”
