Runs well on modern hardware.
This DLC is definitely worth playing - some enemies have incredible designs and are fun to play against, including some mechanics that can catch you off guard - Gaunter is covered in mystery and sends a chill of fear down the spine - story itself is engaging and emotional. Despite that DCL has its flaws: - spiders - coming from a person with arachnophobia, its more than self-explanatory; - target lock issue in some fights, might be fixed in upcoming remaster - Olgierd - and there are spoilers here - [spoiler]he is just a horrible person, the more you learn about him, the more you hate him. I truly believe that he would have ended up same miserable person he is now, even without Gaunters influence. Truly, it becomes almost logical and deserved to let Gaunter do his business and call it a day. Only because of almost direct text aka "mirror guy is literally pure evil" you might consider that you should intervene (also in order to not miss next fun part of the quest). I strongly believe that if Olgierd was made into more ambiguous character, we would be able to empathise with him and actually get to feel the scale of the tragedy. On top of that, it could have made decision-making based not simply on opposing Gaunter because of what he is, but also on our personal view of Olgierd as a person.[/spoiler] Still recommend DLC, [spoiler]Iris deserved better.[/spoiler]
I'm an OG because I have this. Peep my OG status. I have no idea what this is, but I'm an OG. Okay? Don't you dare ever call me not an OG. I'm an OG. I'm an OG. I'm an OG. I'm an OG.
