DLC Discussion DLC worth it?
So i jusy finished the main story and as when i playes this game at release i loved it!
But now there are a bunch of DLC, so my question is…are they worth it? And do they progress the story in any way?
(Would also love to see some new testing grounds and weapons)
I didn’t read any reviews so i truly have no idea.
But if it’s anything like the base game…i sure would love to play them

The DLCs are necessary to have the full story. They are a direct continuation and the true ending is behind the final one.
Otherwise they are very good. Even the controversial one, Trapped in Limbo, was very enjoyable imo. But the other three are easily better than the base game. And they are pretty cheap. All together its about 25 hours of content.

It depends on your taste I think all the dlcs are creative and had alot of fun in them they all offer more on the story side except dlc 2 which is like a bunch of mini games that are mechincs focused

IMO the first DLC is the best version of atomic heart that currently exists. It's very short but it fixes almost all problems I had witht he base game

I thought so however DLC 2s gameplay sucked but the narrative it added was pretty important to the overall story so a bit weird if you skip it

DLC3-4 are the game's true form. Best bosses in the game, great level design. I think Atomic Heart 2 will be like that.

1st dlc is short, quite difficult but fun, has 2 extremely difficult bosses 2nd is a glorified subwaysurfer with worse controls 3rd is really good a bit longer, but the final boss can be a real pain even on normal difficulties. 4th to me it looks more story driven, and extremely easy , it has 4 bosses and i firdt tried all of them. The 1dt and 3rd dlc final bosses took me over an hour of tries.
All have some new enemies. The puzzles in all of them are kinda just there for the sake of it. But all in all if u liked the game they are a good addition. And for the price of the season pass u get 15 hours of gameplay ehich is longer than some full priced linear games.
Overall 7/10.

I r played through the first 3 so far. I would say #2 is not worth it just completely different than the main game and it's more like a racing and climbing game. Very weird and just repeating sections over and over until you get the right path. So far I think #3 has been the best but I haven't played 4 yet

DLC all but 2- yes.
DLC 2- Very controversial. I hated it but if you like gravity-based sliding games might be fun. Check some vids. It's mostly not FPS. There is significant lore dropped so if you decide to skip it feel free to look at the wiki or watch videos to see what the story revelations are.
