Btw saying that the patches are like expansions is pretty fanboyish. The support is good, but fixing a couple of bugs, making balance corrections and adding a few needed features is in no way worth an expansion.

Patches have also had new content, added full features (modding) and a few other things.

They may not be "free expansions" but they are certainly a high grade of patch that you would hope would be released with every game. I've certainly bought expansions with less of these things than what Dom2 patches have been able to provide.
