DLC that’s better than the main game...
- Thread starter Baphomet
- Start date
This include expansions? Witcher 3: Heart of Stone and Blood and Wine
Basically any Firaxis Game, too. Civ DLC, XCOM 2 War of the Chosen, etc

Lair of the Shadow Broker
Mass Effect 2 is a masterpiece but that DLC was such a perfect combination of action, drama, character growth and nostalgia...I just adored it.

Fallout 4's two major DLCs gave players opportunities that really should have existed in the main game.
An unusual pick, but the Surviving Mars "Green Planet" DLC turns it from a good game to an amazing one with terraforming
Hearts of Stone as a whole was much better written plot wise than the Witcher 3. The villain is also 10x more interesting. Blood and Wine was such a fun location to go to that I would also consider it better than the main game.
Yeah, you never play a Firaxis game vanilla unless the expansions just aren't out yet.
Civ 5 DLC, it's unplayable to me without it
Frozen Wilds was better then regular Horizon
Fallout 4 Far Harbor is actually Fallout

Metro Exodus. The Two Colonels was simply fantastic as a small story in the world and it felt more like the previous two games than any moment in the main game. Sam's Story also did the open world levels in Exodus better than any open world level in the main game by making it more linear.
Might get some flack for this but both Bloodborne and Dark Souls 3 had the best locations and bosses.
Resurrection of Evil is a way better campaign than vanilla Doom 3
-length is tight so you dont have to suffer through a middle third thats a slog and a half like in vanilla doom 3 which just drags its atmospheric spooky first act to incredibly diminishing returns before it picks up again for the last third where its full on shooter in hell/hellified labs
-gravity gun is cool cus you can just fling the lost souls around
-no sections where you have to just fucking stand there and take potshots at 30 stupid spider demons for several minutes
-once you get the beserk powerup added to the artifact, at any point you can just go "alright demons, square up"

Kingdom Hearts 3. Except the first section which is literally just replaying shit from the end of the game again but sometimes you can play as a different character.
Also, when it comes to Final Fantasy XV, nothing really beats just driving around and doing other random shit in the main game. So, I'd still rather PLAY the main game than the DLC. But story wise, the last two DLC episodes were a million times more interesting than the actual story in the main game.

Lol that's my least favorite piece of content in the entire series.
Also I liked Minerva's Den but I don't think it's massively better than Bioshock 2 like a lot of people seem to.
Homefront: The Revolution's DLCs, Voice of Freedom, Aftermath, and Beyond the Walls were way better than the main game.
name a more iconic duo than naughty dog and pairing up strong black female characters with strong white female characters 😌
I really liked the gameplay of the base game so was disappointed that those were mandatory-ish stealth sections.
I don't think many would disagree with Old Hunters especially, Ludwig is perfect.
Chloe is white?
Yes, Maria and Orphan are great too. For DS3 Friede and Gael are some of the best bosses that come to mind too.
