DLCs worth it?

[+Analbi]

I love Tropico, i have all six games, almost platinum on 4, love everything about it, yadda, yadda, yadda.

I have Absolute Power for 3 and Mordern Times for 4 as DLCs, loved them too much

Besides the fact that it doesn't adds up pretty much achievements, or at least that's what i think. i don't see the DLCs as... something actually charming, besides some gameplay changes and such

Question for those who actually bought it: On season sale (Or in whatever any other occassion sale) or not... are the DLCs worth it? I mean, for someone who LOVES Tropico?

They all add more missions and some variety of new buildings.

You basically either want more missions or you don't.

None of the DLCs are worth full price, but they go on sale often and the sale price will often stack with a bundle discount.

Virtual viritilitay and meta remote desktop for old Tropico 1-3 is much realistic
and this game no need a fastest PC but need lots of passion for 2-4 hrs game in one match

I have bought one so far for this game but I'm not sure if the Tropical Shores or the Going Viral are worth it for this game? (Now that they are on a small sale)

Tropican Shores is a straight upgrade. The buildings it adds are worth it to use in any mission and can be turned on and fit with anything you're doing. The mission/campaign it comes with is interesting as well.

Going Viral is very niche, it's an interesting (though higher difficulty) campaign/story stand alone, but turning on the DLC during any other mission (or sandbox) is just adding tedious extra work to whatever else you have going on and some of the buildings are too large for the smaller islands.

Tropican Shores is pretty much worth it no matter what else you're doing and I'm even replaying all prior missions with it turned on. Going Viral is only worth it if you want to add challenge for the sake of difficulty and using it as an add on DLC with any other missions and not just the ones it comes with makes them harder for no other reason than to make them harder "for fun" if that's what you're into.

All the other DLC fall somewhere in between with Tropican Shores being the one that adds the most versatility to all other missions you could combine it with and Going Viral being just a difficulty boost with a lot of buildings focused on coping with the pandemics it brings with it.

The other DLC in general again I'd only suggest if you're looking to have more missions to play, they all add at least one and the larger ones add several.
