  Arguably one of the best update to Vermintide.

  This DLC is bigger than the last. The price is not.

  I have not played this game much after I finished it when it came out, and never played the first DLC. But I can recommened this DLC if you are looking for a short exciting play through. I completed this DLC in about 3 and half hours but it had me wanting to continue playing the whole time. 8/10 DLC, was short but fantastic. If you have the $10 and looking to play remnant again I would recommend getting Subject 2923.

  (This will partly serve as an outline for the entire game.) So...I just finished the new entire campaign (yes, about 5 hours after release), and so far this feels like a lukewarm experience. If you liked the base game, it's good fun, but if it left you wanting more, this DLC doesn't fully scratch that itch and mostly suffers from the same problems. The new world is vibrant and has the seeds of a very interesting story planted somewhere in there, but the soil is dry and unwelcoming. Story spoilers below, while trying not to go into TOO much detail. [spoiler] The new world is great, the added lore is also great, a lot of things are explained, but in the end the main antagonist is the least interesting part of the story. Ford, the person you spent more or less tailing in the main game, gets a small nod and nothing else. Ward 13 seems to get little to zero new dialogue. The fairly well featured Shadow of the Colossus fellow from the trailer barely gets 4-5 minutes of screentime, same for Subject 2923. All this culminates in a "YOU ARE SAVIOR" ending which feels in many ways less justified than in the original, and that wasn't a particular high bar to begin with (so, going from what seemed like killing the source of the root on Earth in the base game to killing the ACTUAL source of the root which actually ISN'T the source of the root but essentially a cackling minion, AAARGH). TL;DR, if you wanted to know how RHOM deals with the death or rule of the Undying King, how the conflict on Yaesha ended, how Ward 13 is going to be rebuilt, how the culture of the new world or the subtle Nordic tones it displays will be shaped by your actions...[b]Heck, even if you stand a true chance against the source of the ROOT, you're out of luck.[/b] Why did I mention all these things, even if some are unrelated? [i]Because this is meant to be the final DLC. [/i] [/spoiler] So, why the positive review? Because the gameplay is still great, the core loop is still engaging, the new mechanics are pretty well thought out and personally I haven't encountered any bugs. It's been a very smooth release and what you get is enjoyable, even if there's not all that much of it. There's definitely more added content than before, but the game still feels far from complete. I just wish the devs had more $$$, there's quite a bit of storytelling through text (all of it great in my opinion) and a bit through some cutscenes...which is not so great. If the game had the same level of passion I feel from it and the budget of a AAA studio, it would have surpased its "Soulsborne" [i]roots[/i] (heh). The way it stands now I see it filling a mostly untapped niche, but doomed to decay into obscurity with time, and it deserves way more than that.

  Took me about 8.5 hours to beat this campaign solo, and I'll gladly run it again on harder difficulties and with friends. New armor, trinkets, and weapons. New enemies and bosses, new environments. New story. Honestly, this is a steal for $10. If you enjoyed the base game, this is a no-brainer.
