User blog comment:Aleksandr the Great/Prothean Squadmate is Officially DLC/@comment-50.4.27.180-20120222143151

a few people have mentioned that this is a supposedly "integral character" or even mentioned this guy helping defeat the reapers. ..

I would like to point out that the protheans lost in the most miserable way imaginable against the reapers

my only expectation with this character is that he has the same voice actor as vigil, and is in fact the guy that vigil is named after.

I am not bothered by it being DLC, but I am bothered that they forgot why they do day one DLC, the whole purpose is to encourage people to buy the game new, since prothy isnt coming with all new copies of the game making this DLC is a pointless grab at money, and it completely fails at encouraging people to purchase new copies of the game
