    G-rank was always dlc, but physical on another version called 3U, 4U or XX, or frontier united.

      I didn’t have to pay for G-rank until Iceborne and Sunbreak. I’d like to go back to those days.

          I’m not sure what you’re getting at. I bought every version of every game since the first one and pirated the Japanese versions before they were localized. G rank wasn’t something you had to pay for until the games I mentioned. It was either in the game or it wasn’t. I’m not interested in having an argument though so I’ll just see myself out of this weird pseudo-argument.
