The rating of 5 stars is specifically to counterbalance the one star "This should be free!" reviews others left. Do you guys know how many devs and publishers don't release this stuff at all? I'd rather it be available for $10 than not at all and have the price of the base game jacked up by that amount like happens all the time when greedy publishers are involved. These are nice things to gave, and a good way to show support for the devs. The alternative, which occurs constantly nowadays even on GOG, is that soundtracks, making-of videos and other bonus goodies never see the light of day at all. Which would you prefer? I'm happier with the option to buy them, myself. It's not like it's in-game content that could have been cut to sell as DLC or cut and distributed as a preorder bonus. Now THAT would have pissed me off. If you're concerned about greedy publishers and devs, they do exist, and in great numbers, but Piranha Bytes is the wrong target here.
Others have mentioned how it's ridiculous to charge $4 for a handful of character portraits when you could insert better ones yourself. However, that's not the worst part of this mess. It wasn't even made to have people buy it. It appears it was made to game Steam's recommendation algorithm and have Tyranny noted as "recently updated" at the same time as a Paradox sale was going on. They seem to have deliberately made the lowest of low-effort DLCs specifically for that reason, then tacked on a price tag that amounts to nothing more than a blatant cash-grab. Don't touch this with a 10-foot pole. Maybe if it goes on sale for 100% off... Source: https://www.gog.com/forum/general/release_tyranny_portrait_pack_dlc_0e1f2/post119
