Assuming you've already got a good grasp of the base game, Industries, Parklife and Mass Transit are my recommendations. All 3 are part of every city I start and alter the game's behaviour in one way or another. Industries takes #1 spot though as it presents some micro-management challenges which I really enjoy. Have fun with whichever one you choose :) (tip: a spring sale may be coming up soon so buy the DLC then)

the industries DLC is one of the best DLCs available, since mods cant exactly recreate or mimick what the DLC does without the DLC itself, for example if you install a mod for a farm field, you'll need the DLC most of the time, not always. This just makes the DLC super unique and usable, even on vanilla it adds a whole new element and style to your gameplay

Yeah I heard a lot of good things about that one. I also heard good things about parklife. Do you have it and would you recommend it

I would focus on the expansion packs. Ignore Radio and Content packs as you can just listen to your own music or download alternate mods from the Workshop.

Of the expansion packs, given the variety this might be a little subjective, as a transit buff I prefer Mass Transit and Snowfall best. Industries, Campus, and Parklife are also great ones in my books.

parklife is another good one, it has elements that cant be replicated by mods but alot of the actual assets and buildings it comes with are already accessable or possible by mods, apart from the zoo side of things, another great DLC but probably not as good or worth while as industries, it's probably like number #4-#5 ish out of all the DLCs, beaten by airport DLCs and industries as well as mass transit.

I personally like the snow and winter related features quite a bit, so it is not just that I bought for the trams alone. That being said, of course opinions may vary.
