I can’t buy the base game on EGS and then buy DLC elsewhere, either. Otherwise I would have bought the DLC on sale off of Steam or GOG for base titles I claimed free on EGS.
That argument is stupid for anyone who understands how games utilize DRM and DLC. As long as DRM is not involved, there is literally nothing stopping you from getting the DLC from somewhere else. Things are slightly trickier with DRM, but not impossible.
The additional content thing is fucking stupid.
