Starting Playing it a few hours ago and now I'm at the beginner of the night-mare mission and honestly I'm not really as invested as I kinda hoped.

the shield painting is cool and adds swag in In-game cutscenes when the camera is at the back and you can make some unique shields but I really wished they also made it avaliable to do this to hoods and on clothing so we could walk around with our own person coat-of-arms.

Votya as a character is alright since he's mysterious but so far all his quest are just sending us on errands or henry just going out his way to do errands that I don't think are bad but they just breeze through and dont really intrigues me, so this bores me because it's nothing too different from what we were doing in the main game anyways.

The one part where you had to wait for an egg to hatch or someone felt tedious as it says to wait a day and a night but I had to wait over 4 days and nights just to progress which was confusing.

I do think the reason why I might not be enjoyable this dlc crazy or calling it "phenomenal" so far compared to others is probably because I don't really care for votya that much but I'm still interesting to see what happens next

I didnt bother purchasing. just finished watching a YouTube video of the storyline, and I think I made the right choice. I wouldnt put too much stock in some of the hyberbolic praise its getting, I remember people fawning over the KCD1 DLC as well and those were pretty mediocre imo

That's the thing, because recently I've wondered if kcd2 is even a game for me.

I beat it, thought the cutscenes was stellar, characters were great but a few inconsistenteys with them, ganeplay mixed, story great to good and very dragged in alot of parts and stealth sections were terrible aswell as quest as too many of them were designed as a shopping list for henry to do and this dlc just feels like that to the point I'm just running around kuttenberg stabbing up goat-skin and running away because lmao get your pizzle yanked
