Comparisons are inevitable between a game and its DLC. Often it comes down to whether the DLC feels like additional content, or simply content that belonged in the base game but was cut just to justify selling a content add-on. Other times, it's a question of whether a DLC feels too similar to - or too different from - its base game. The best DLCs of all time, from The Witcher 3's Blood and Wine to Ghost of Tsushima's Iki Island, build upon the success of their base game while elevating gameplay aspects or creating entirely new areas to explore. FromSoftware are masters of this.
