Opinions About The DLC?

[ace]

So, i've been playing a lot of Wolfenstein games, and recently i bought both TNC and TNO . Even though TNC is not as good as TNO or TOB (my opinion), its gameplay is still really good, despite its weird difficulty spikes here and there and some visual glitches.

So, i want to know: The DLCs are good? For me, TNC didn't have a good story or decent level design, so i'm wondering if any of these 3 episodes have a charismatic protagonist or fun levels to go through or is just the same thing as the main game? I mean, i can still play them, but i really wanted some good characters to play as, like Blazkowicz in the main game.

From what I've read, they re-use areas from the base game and are in-series propaganda. They're also very short.

So I'd suggest you spend the money on something else.

Well, that kinda sucks...Maybe it'll be better for me to just skip this DLC. Thanks for your reply!

They're fun little stories, just short.

Maybe when i don't have anything to spend my money on, i'll give it a try. Thank you for your reply!

They are fun, but between the recycled content and the god ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ awful crashes (not to mention that steep price) I cannot recommend it at all, unless you REALLY have nothing better to buy.

Yeah, i'll definitely buy this DLC (maybe one episode) when i have enough money to spend and not a good game to buy. Recycled levels are not a good sign of decent content....Thanks for your reply!

They are... a bit disappointing.
Short, recycled areas, the lighting also seems to have taken a step down in several areas.

But, since they are not canon to the Wolfenstein storyline... you can skip them.
All they are are stories written by someone on the Eva's Hammer. Which is why you can't play them until you hit Chapter 2 of the main campaign.

You have to unlock the Vault on the Eva's Hammer, and use the SAS machine to access them. Because someone on the ship has made their stories into simulations on the SAS machine.

Really? So the whole DLC are just "stories" that are created by someone? Damn...not really excited by this idea. I loved the gunplay in this game, but i was hoping they could give us some more interesting levels to explore. But since most of them are recycled levels of the main game, there's not a lot of reason to buy them. Not at this price...anyway, thank you for the reply!

Yeah, they are basically "comic book" style stories written by one of the resistance members.
I was disappointed in them once I finished them.

Was kind of expecting more.
I think The Old Blood set a certain expectation in me, and the DLC didn't measure up. But, hopefully Youngblood will fill that void.

The Old Blood was a really good expansion. It was my first Wolfenstein game and i loved it. I also hope that they can make their next expasion (Young Blood) as good as The Old Blood.

I lost faith in Machine Games. The New Order and The Old Blood were great. The New Colossus was a bit of a let down, and the first DLC... didn't even care to play the last two DLC chapters.

I'll have to see a lot of reviews say about The Young Blood before I even think about buying it.

It's a shame because I felt The Old Blood expansion was better than The New Order.

[Damien Azreal]

I would disagree there. I really like Old Blood, but, if kind of fell apart towards the end. And the final boss was pretty bad. Good, but, nowhere near as great as New Order.

And, I personally really liked New Colossus. New Order is better, but Colossus was still a damn great game.
I wasn't to thrilled about the DLC to begin with, I figured since they were rolling out three different ones... they would be shorter, and less refined then the main game.
