Yesterday, we reported Aspyr Media had confirmed that the Restored Content DLC for the Nintendo Switch port of Knights of the Old Republic 2 - The Sith Lords "will not be moving forward".
In a statement posted to its social media channel, the team did not clarify why it had aborted plans to bring the DLC to Switch, nor offered a refund – instead, players have been given the option of selecting one of seven "replacement" games, six of which are on Switch.
While a lot of comments about the decision have been decidedly unhappy, one commenter says "Aspyr did nothing wrong" – and they're one of the volunteers that created the Restored Content DLC in the first place.
Modder zbyl2 felt compelled to comment on the KOTOR subreddit after a player suggested that one of the reasons the DLC was cancelled was because of "higher-ups not wanting to give credit to the modding team" – something zbyl2 emphatically denies.
"I made the mod. The above is 100 per cent false, and I'm sad you got so many upvotes because that rumor is now going to spread," they said, responding directly to the commenter.
"Aspyr was great to work with, and they offered to credit the whole team long before I even asked about it."
In another comment, zbyl2 added: "Aspyr did nothing wrong. Quote me on that. Shame it ended the way it did.
"I have nothing but good things to say about Aspyr and our cooperation over the past eight years."
At the time of writing, Aspyr still hasn't formally responded to comments from fans who'd rather have a refund than a key for a game many say they already own. We'll keep you posted, of course.
