Mass Effect

"LotSB is the best. Love that one so much I play it to see how quickly i can beat the Shadow Broker."
·
"Citadel DLC felt like a nice reward and break from the intensity. It also felt earned. Not to mention getting to interact with all my favorite companions like real people and not just soldiers."
·
"Lair of the Shadow Broker and Citadel DLC for sure."
·
"Cmon, it’s gotta be Citadel. Anybody who says otherwise is lying. Amazing gameplay, writing, etc."
·
"Citadel is my favorite, but most of the DLC is great."
·
"It’s the citadel by a mile."
·
"For me it's the Lair of The Shadow Broker. The Shadow Broker's ship and hos species are chef's kiss."
·
"Citadel DLC > All others."
·
"The citadel DLC but the party part of it in particular. I like the first part too for the missions, the music, and the humor but the party is my favorite part of 3."
·
"Citadel and it’s not even close. Honorable mention Lair of the Shadow Broker."

"Blood and wine."
·
"Blood and Wine - The Witcher 3."
·
"It's basically whole other game."
·
"They set the standard for DLCs."
·
"Blood & Wine."
·
"For me."
·
"A perfectly written little story."
·
"Big story expansion and gameplay time."
·
"Awesome story vs awesome fun. Can't choose."
·
"Both were like a complete game with totally new campaign/story."

DLC

"Start with thrones of decay."
·
"Amazing cDLCs if you enjoy the 2035 setting. Definitely recommend if you want to expand on the base game."
·
"Is great if you want to scratch the Vietnam itch, and is ultimately the best DLC by far."
·
"Amazing cDLCs if you enjoy the 2035 setting. Definitely recommend if you want to expand on the base game."
·
"ToD is the only real "must-have" DLC for either race."
·
"Is probably my number one, its a fun region and the trucks are great."
·
"Utopia is the only real must- Stellaris is basically a different game without it."
·
"Best DLC by far, and other dlcs have features locked behind Utopia."
·
"Burial at Sea is amazing and would be in the top five somewhere."
·
"If you haven't already, check out Minerva's Den. It's the DLC for 2 and IMO the best bit of Bioshock."
·

Fallout

"Dead Money and Old World Blues would be my recommendations, they are all great but I think those two provide the best experience."
·
"All of them. Every DLC has it's pros and cons and the people who played them have countless opinions why they love one and hate the other."
·
"Get them on sale when they’re like $1.99. My answer is get them all. They’re all worth playing."
·
"Old World Blues and Honest Hearts are the most enjoyable"
·
"All are good. I’d honestly buy and play them in release order. Dead money is easier when you’re at a lower level."
·
"Many people HATE Dead Money at first. I did. But I have found it to be an enduring and rich challenge and I really e"
·
"Lonesome Road and Honest Hearts are two of the best."
·
"Lonesome Road and Honest Hearts are two of the best."
·
"Id probably get dead and either lonesome road or old world blues."
·
"In my opinion, you should get Dead Money and Honest Hearts and play through them in that order."

Hearts of Iron IV

"No step back is cinema"
·
"I have around 500 hours I’d say No step back, By Blood Alone, and Gotterdammerung is all you really need to have a good time"
·
"No step back was fantastic for the Soviets"
·
"No Step Back is probably the best, the tank designer can be used in a LOT of different ways, officer corps is an addition that i have come to love more and more, Railway guns are fun and all the focus tree's added are great."
·
"NSB came with least problems, with best content. New Soviet tree is great, Baltic nations are fun (a bit on OP side but nothing too ridiculous), tank designer is great."
·
"Either No Step Back or By Blood Alone. There’s also Gotterdamerung if you enjoy playing Germany."
·
"No step back"
·
"I would probably say No Step Back"
·
"Like No Step Back, By Blood Alone and Man The Gun DLC allow good design for plane and ship."
·
"Man the Guns gives the UK, USA, Netherlands, and Mexico focus trees."
·

Castlevania

5.0

"The Castlevania DLC is the best and adds near endless content."
·
"Castlevania, Contra, Moonspell, Foscari."
·
"OtC has the most of additional content."
·
"Ode to castlevania. It's like an entirely new game."
·
"OtC first, Tides of Foscari Second."
·
"Ode to Castlevania >>>>>>>>>>>> Tides of the Foscari."
·
"Ode to castlevania. But also all of them."
·
"Ode to Castlevania is the Most popular for having the Most content."
·
"Castlevania for sure."

NetherRealm Studios

"MK11 takes the gold. Best playable versions of Shao Kahn, Shang Tsung, Mileena, & Rain."
·
"MKX probably has the best guest characters and MK11 has the best story with Aftermath."
·
"X imo. Stacked roster. All wanted characters."
·
"MK11 and MK1 are mid launch games that got increasingly better through DLC."
·
"The cool thing about MKX is the fact that they used 1 dlc to add what's essentially 4 characters in one."
·
"X got it for me when they added my boy Voorhees."
·
"Overall, it's X for me because Triborg is in it."
·
"I am biased because ghostface and also the game is easier then X."
·
"I would give it to MK1 if all the DLC wasn’t so overpriced."
·
"Mk 9 in my opinion but I haven't played it for awhile so maybe nostalgia."

MechWarrior 5

4.8
(8)
"I'd go for Heroes of the IS first."
·
"As the others are saying Heroes of the inner sphere has the most content by far."
·
"Heroes DLC for the Hero mechs + new weapons + Cantina missions (to unlock Mech upgrades)."
·
"I think you needs it for career too right? If op is looking to play a lot."
·
"Heroes of the Inner Sphere adds the most content, especially Career Mode."
·
"Heroes of the Inner Sphere would be my choice: a bunch of extra missions and hero mechs, which are often best-im-class."
·
"Solaris is pretty up there"
·
"I would say the Solaris one, with all the cc weapons, a good storyline and solo quest fights, and good replay value from the new arena contract missions."

Mortal Kombat X DLC

4.5
(6)
"Definitely X, predator and Jason are really fun"
·
"Mkx hands down. The guests felt in a way like they were from this universe (Jason and leatherface like straight out of hell and predator and alien like something you'd find in some part of outworld or the chaos realm)."
·
"Definitely MKX predator is one of my favourite films. I actually bought MKXL just because you could play as him, also I’m a fan of alien as well."
·
"It’s goes MKX, mk11, mk1. That leatherface was probably the funniest guest character I’ve ever played."
·
"X is the best over all. 11 had the best single DLC (Spawn) but the weakest overall"
·
"Mkx because mkx characters are more fun to play than mk11 and mk1 characters."

Saber Interactive

"Honestly I would get them all except the cosmetic DLCs."
·
"Just buy the anniversary Edition. it has all the dlc for 60€."
·
"You will absolutely get the most mileage out of 'vibrant cities'."
·
"Amur(contains 1 of the 3 best trucks), kola(beautiful and fun map), british columbia(fun map to play with one of the best trucks in game) are very good ones imo."
·
"All of the others are great and add real fun to the game."
·
"I only don't have the Anarchist which didn't inspire me much."

"Right now it’s southeastern high speed as it’s on sale right now and is a great DLC"
·
"Southeastern is a good value price atm. Suggest buying."

"For the UK, Southeastern High speed is great because you have in the DLC itself both commuter and high s"
·
"Southeastern High Speed is currently on sale on Xbox for...$9 USD?"
·
"I like UK stuff so Southeastern Highspeed with a few layers has plently of variety and goes for as much as 90% off."

·
"Wisconsin is a must have, if you don't by now."

"The order I'd prioritize DLC is Biotech - Ideology - Royalty - Anomaly."
·
"I got biotech and it has been game changer!"

"IMO Roads to Power, Tours & Tournaments and Royal Court are the only "must haves" to have a more complete and "universal" experience."
·
"Tours and Tournaments adds a lot more to the travel mechanics, and it's pretty good stuff."
·
"Royal Court adds a lot of stuff to do but imo it just makes the game feel really bloated, but it does add cool culture mechanics so I still play with it."

Stellaris

"Must have: Utopia - stuff you will definitely want to use."
