General Gaming We're nearing the end of the decade. What were some of your favorite DLC/expansions?

[SaysWho?]

Looking back, some of my favorite gaming memories -- and some of the favorites I've heard from others -- came from DLC. Some DLC is just really lame (I'm looking at you, Arkham games, even though the base game rocks). But this decade, we've seen:

 

Mass Effect 2: Lair of the Shadow Broker (this seems like it came out a lifetime ago lol)

 

 

Bioshock 2: Minerva's Den

 

 

Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare

 

 

Mass Effect 3: Citadel

 

 

Bioshock Infinite: Burial At Sea

 

 

Starcraft II: Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void

 

 

The Last of Us: Left Behind:

 

 

Dark Souls II: Crown of the Ivory, Sunken and Iron King

 

 

Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove

 

 

Destiny: The Taken King

 

 

Bloodborne: The Old Hunters

 

 

The Witcher 3: Heart of Stone and Iron and Wine

 

 

Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds:

 

 

Resident Evil 7: Not a Hero

 

 

Destiny 2: Forsaken

 

 

Monster Hunter World: Iceborne

 

 

No Man's Sky: Beyond

 

 

 

There's been quite a bit, and some are great but not even best-of-decade since some developers really gave, in some cases, a new and really amazing experience.

 

This is just a list of some of the notable ones, but what, for you, really impressed you?

[SaysWho?]

One that won't get a ton of mentions but easily is for me, is all the Resogun DLC:

 

 

Resogun was an addictive game in its own right. The Defenders DLC made it into one of my favorite games this gen and added so much, with so many memories co-oping the shit out of it, including with some of our D1P members. I wish I had a counter for how much time I spent with the game once the DLC released.

Great list.  Dishonored: Death of the Outsider is probably my favorite.  It's a concentration of everything that makes those games great, and wraps up the story in a very interesting and conclusive way.

Definitely both Witcher 3 and TLOU were at the top of my list. 

[Mercury33]

Jesus I can’t believe some of those were this decade. RDR(the good one) feels like ages ago. 

[Keyser_Soze]

OP took all the good ones.

Do stand alone expansions count?

these are the first ones that come to mind for me as well

[Bloodporne]

Probably Bloodborne: The Old Hunters for me. It really fleshed the game out and was basically worth it already for the Ludwig boss fight.

 

Really wish RE2 Remake had gotten legit DLC. I would've been a sucker and paid to have that game fleshed out, there's so much room for more content.

Yup.

[Alpha1Cowboy]

I think hands down the winner for me is No Mans Sky updates.....like 2 entirely new games 

 

Playing it in VR is just a blast

[Ghost_MH]

Nothing beats all the Shovel Knight expansions. Three full expansions that are basically all new games along with Showdown, which is also an entirely new game. All of that for free with the purchase of the base game? It's the only game that gave away so much for free I felt compelled to triple-dip.

[skillzdadirecta]

The Witcher Expansions for sure... those were almost like full fledged games in their own right.

[Remarkableriots]

The three best expansions ever!

[CastlevaniaNut18]

The Witcher 3 expansions and nothing else really comes close. 

[skillzdadirecta]

Mass Effect 2 and 3 had great expansions too so did Shadow of War.

[CastlevaniaNut18]

The Last of Us: Left Behind was a good one. I think I waited til I got the PS4 version to play it. 
 

I know I’ve played more DLC, but The Witcher 3 was just the ultimate experience in what DLC can be. 

[Keyser_Soze]

The only DLC you need
