I remember the launch of mass effect 3 in 2012, when EA and Bioware removed all the prothean companion content (very relevant to the story) from the base game and sold it as 10€ day 1 DLC. They even boasted about "releasing a game for 80€" back then IIRC.
From what I remember, some of the content was already on the disk.
I remember the first time playing Mass Effect 3 in the Legendary Edition and experiencing the story with Javik along with the Leviathan quest line. I'd missed out on a lot of depth and emotional context to the story due to being a broke high schooler when it originally launched.
