    With TSW4 it shows that I have 74 adds installed and yet in in TSW5 it shows that I have 145 adds.

    So I looked into the addons installed for TSW5 and it shows both TSW3 and TSW4 addons for the same DLC (for ex KWG: Dispolok BR 182),

    #1 Why does it show TSW3 and TSW4 addons for the same DLC (ex both #1 KWG: Dispolok BR 182 TSW3 #2 and Dispolok BR 182 TSW4)?

    #2 Even if you delete the game and then reinstall the game, the PS4 for the game still shows the all of the DLC installed even when it is no longer installed). See sample screen shot, below....

    Please and thank you

    As a PlayStation player, I've noticed this too. Older DLCs for TSW2/3 or 4 are displayed twice or even three times since the introduction of TSW5. This is partly due to the licensing system, as each DLC has to be registered and signed up for each new TSW version and is therefore displayed for each purchased TSW version.

    This could also be presented in a more user-friendly way and the DLC display could be restricted or filtered to TSW5 only. But Sony would be responsible for that. At least it still works better than with Microsoft, where older DLCs are sometimes no longer displayed at all, i.e. too much filtering is not always the best way.

    How the DLC display can still work well can be seen best on Steam, where the DLCs are assigned appropriately and completely for each TSW version.

    But in the end it won't work without legally secured licensing, otherwise we would be back in the age of illegal piracy like in the 90s.
