10 Underwhelming Video Games With MUST-PLAY DLC

10. Dark Souls II: The Lost Crowns

Dark Souls II isn't bad, but it's definitely the worst of the trilogy. Considering FromSoftware has been knocking it out of the park ever since, it's safe to say Dark Souls II is also the weakest Soulsborne title.

I mean, it's still fun (Okay, Souls games can't be classified as "fun" but you know what I mean.) But Dark Souls II's biggest defenders can't deny this sequel could've been so much more.

Fortunately, The Lost Crowns add-on set everything right. Rather than repeating the sins of the past, these three extra campaigns discard the linear level design, giving the player a more Metroidvania experience. Although this style required backtracking, it never feels tedious.

On the contrary, it makes you appreciate how well-crafted this world is. Because the paths aren't laid out in front of you, you feel like you're rewarded the more you explore, giving you a more immersive playthrough.

As superb as The Lost Crowns trilogy is as a whole, the final instalment takes things to a whole new level of epicness. By the time you complete it, you'll forget you had any misgivings with Dark Souls II to begin with.
