Generous, artful and brutally hard, The Old Hunters is the perfect send-off for a modern masterpiece.
Gaming has given birth to some of the best DLCs ever made that enhance the base game significantly. Here are a few top recommendations.
NoobFeed Editor Joshua Burt writes - It is now a mainstay of gaming that post a title's release, and DLC will accompany the game. Some of the most popular games of the last fifteen years have followed this practice. But there are some DLCs that are better than others. That stands on the shoulders of their base game, and in some cases… Surpass it. These are the 10 expansions that were better than the main game.
Damn, I feel stupid when years ago I played all the dlc for fallout 3 except the pitt. My younger ass looked at it and thought it was boring without trying I believe... Well good reason to fire up the old dusty ps3!
Solid list, I'd add inFamous: Festival of Blood, although it was a standalone download, it still felt like an inFamous 2 expansion.
Blood and Wine might be the best ever though.
I'd also add in Horizon The Frozen Wilds. As I started it, I wasn't sure I had the energy, but my God that was awesome. Some of the best weapons, enemies and missions in Horizon for sure.
Blood and Wine is always the reason these "best DLC of all time" list gets made in the first place nowadays.
Don't think CDPR can come any where near with any upcoming CP2077 DLC.
I have beaten Bloodborne but though i have the DLC I never played through it. For now I want to wait and see if it gets a Bluepoint remake.
DBC: “As soon as I had tasted FromSoftware’s new risk-and-reward formula, there was no going back. Its bleak beauty, its goading challenge, and its eerie otherworldliness coursed through my veins like a brand-new, intoxicating Estus-like tincture. From that point on, I was hooked on its electrifyingly addictive gameplay loop and back-to-basics game design. For me, and for many other folks out there, the Souls franchise was nothing short of a revolution.”
Really great write up! Dark Souls is absolutely one of the most influential games ever made.
Will we be able to use the new weapons right off the bat or do we have to wait until we reach the DLC area? I am in the first Sick Room on NG+. I haven't even ran past the first wolfe yet. My character is "skill" stat heavy, it just scales good with the Blades of Mercy. If we can have access to the new weapons right off the bat and not have to wait for the DLC area I might just stick with having a "Skill" heavy character on NG+ and continue on. Hopefully a "skill" scaling weapon will be one of the new ones but I'm not sure.
I might just wait until my harcover Future Press guide comes so I can see the stats for each new weapon and see what stat scales the best with them. There guide for the regular game was the best hard cover guide I've probably ever seen. It was 500 plus pages. The Old Hunters guide is around 200 or 250 I think.
I guess I'm pretty stoked to be diving into this again. This was my game of the year for 2015 and it will be a great work up for.........Dark Souls 3.
