Would recommend as a bundle/if it's on sale.

Compared to Holy Detonation this DLC was more of a mixed bag for me. I will say it has an intriguing story that reflects one of Wasteland's best qualities, which I think is the room for nuance and grey morality in your choices.

But in all honesty the gameplay side kind of sucks. The fights are more frustrating than challenging thanks to the new mechanics. Sure, you can learn to use elemental resistances to amp up your defences, but I still don't get why it takes ten frigging hits for non-lethal "kills" when 1. it takes less to actually kill someone, and 2. it's not an equal playing field when the workers have no qualms about setting you on fire. With molten tar.

You get some nice new loot/weapons, but they don't measure up to late-game battles, making them rather useless in the end.
