Its quality is there and it has good impact on the game, but adding major factions really offers diversity that extends longevity in a way this one can't. Beasts + Exploration is certainly worthwhile, but I would consider it as a 2nd or 3rd pick up simply because the amount of content isn't on par with the others. The late game crises added is the hardest in game if you side against the south, and if you side against the north its basically noble war with different ally units.īoth those DLCs offer tons of content and are excellent starting choices. A lot of people dislike Serpents (snakes that pull your vulnerable units into a dogpile and annihilate bros without battle forged) and ifrits (difficult if you aren't either powerful already or adopt specific tactics). Some of the fights added are difficult to obnoxious depending on personal taste. Although those are all interesting and mechanically fun tools. The equipment offered is a bit less interesting with mostly swordlances, grenades, and handgonnes being relevant in reality. The retinue feature is both fantastic quality of life and makes the game easier without being too much. That origin alone would have justified the price for myself at least.ĭeserts offers similar (probably slightly more) enemy variety than WotN. Fielding 16 bros of dubious quality and having a 25 man total roster just opens up entirely new team compositions and tactics. Northern raiders are a great departure from typical origins if not noob friendly. It opens up some 'builds' and offers some incredible origins. They can be fought early yet are dangerous no matter how late you take a run. Warriors offers my favorite faction with barbarians. These 2 offer more content than Beasts+Exploration, although all DLC in this game is high quality and good value.

Blazing Deserts is the other starting alternative. I'd personally start with Warriors of the North.
