ThisGenGaming says "In today’s market, DLC is something we see for just about every AAA game that comes out. Your multiplayer games get new maps while the single player games get new story content and missions. Unfortunately most of the time the DLC is kind of overpriced for the amount of content that you get. Some single player games for instance want to charge you $10+ for a couple hours of new content if even that. One developer who has done DLC right has been CD Projekt Red with their 2015 Game of the Year The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt."
While gamers usually take notice of the mainline missions, these 5 side quests deserve more widespread attention for how entertaining they are.
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 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.
Examples of DLCs that are NOT cynical cash-grabs are few and far between. These rare gems can significantly expand upon and improve the base game. GameLuster's Nirav Gandhi highlights the top ten DLCs of all time. Publishers take note - these are DLCs done right.
My favorite DLC list would be:
10) Dragon Age Origins: Awakening
9) Assassin's Creed IV: Freedom Cry
8) Destiny: The Taken King
7) Fallout 4: Far Harbor
6) Fallout New Vegas: Lonesome Road
5) The Elder Scrolls V: Dawnguard
4) The Elder Scrolls IV: The Shivering Isles
3) The Last of Us: Left Behind
2) Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare
1) The Witcher 3: Blood and Wine
Honorable) Mass Effect 3: Citadel, The Witcher 3: Hearts of Stone, FarCry 3: Blood Dragon, Diablo III: Reaper of Souls
Also) Fallout 76: Wastelanders (Actually brings some sense to the game) (Should be a standalone offline title)
Where’s Big surf island from Burnout Paradise? And all the extras.
GTA4’s dlc was one of the best ever
Undead nightmare was brilliant My 3 favourites off top of my head great value and great content
Dark Souls 2 and Dark Souls 3 DLC was great, Horizon: Zero Dawn's Frozen Wilds DLC was good.
CD Projekt Red is a small games developers better then EA
this is how all dlc should be made where you get your money worth
this game gives you all this and free dlc
other games company should learn about the correct way to support there clients
which is us who buy the games.
It's insane. With the 30 hrs of story and the crafting and housing, you could spend 100 hrs in this dlc alone. And it isnt some tacked on bullshit. It's an entirely new setting dome in a quality that even exceeds the original game. It puts almost everything else to shame. It has more content than ESO's new dlc and that's an mmo.
Can we judge this Dlc after it comes out please. instead of wetting ourselves at the pure conjecture people are conjurering up. It like people/websites reviewing games before they play them. Yes I know common sense is meet with disagrees. : ( oh well
I think ND has already shown us what a SP DLC should be with "left behind" and the witcher is following suit.
