Essential. It is every aspect of UnderRail pushed to the max, both positive & negative.
Worth it alone for what it adds to character-building irrespective of it's new module.

Underrail has only one enjoyable part, and it isn't in the expansion area.

DLC is absolutely fantastic and better in every aspects . Only trouble you may have are horde of critters , that could be tiring with some builds.

So i made a fucky punchy guy named FISTO for warming up to the upcoming update THAT SHOULD BE HERE ANY MOMENT NOW...
Interesting build, but boy do it takes a while to come up online. LVL 16 and extremely picky about what encounters should i face, squishy as fuck but slowly dishing real damage

A well deserved vacation even though something tells me they're discussing over beer how they're gonna nerf my builds!

Now, I’m a latecomer to the game having started my first play through this past April and just having finished it up around Christmas time. As you probably know, Underrail is a very long game: even without the substantial expansion it took me easily over a hundred hours start to finish. Factoring in the expansion, and dependent upon your available time to game, you could be looking at near an entire to fully complete it. No small commitment. A game of this size is bound the have some slog, particularly deep caverns or the water locusts in the Expedition. In spite of structural changes I would make to some of these areas, they do a fine job of making the revelations and secrets hidden within their depths feel earned and worth it at the end. My attention was firmly held throughout by the intriguing mystery of what happened to this world and it’s inhabitants? The mechanical depth to the combat is even deeper with the expansion and I enjoyed playing a stealth, spec ops smg build with lots of grenades. If I hadn’t had to move and had a new daughter mid play through I’m sure I would have finished much sooner. As varied and cool as many of the builds are, the extreme length does put off the start of new play-throughs for me personally. In spite of this, I found the game to be of high enough quality that it will hold my attention for another playthrough, even if it’s not something I do right away.

DLC is worth it for the new character-building additions (such as Temporal manipulation psi school, as well as two new melee weapon types). The actual new content - Expedition into the Black Sea - isn't all that good imo.

Not enough. There is only one valid option for those miserable locusts:
And hopper shot for shotguns

No it does not! It has plasma beam, and plasma beams are cool. I rate builds by how cool they are. And mine is fucking cool

Freeze and shoot to pieces? Obliterate with beams later. Is that it? I'd squeeze TM anyway

It's a crit build that uses freeze as support in the early-mid game. Your main psi hability will be thermodynamic destabilization to transform beefy enemies in powerful live grenades. You'll be doing A LOT of damage from the bolts alone with specced critical power + elemental bolts + sharpshooter. Late game you'll be sitting in almost 100% crit chance (not counting ambush) and being able to shoot a plasma beam for free action points with crit on demand using mania

I finally beat this game and it was a great experience overall. I had some issues with the final area and my build shredded the final boss, but this is still probably the best CRPG I've played in a long time. It kept up a good amount of challenge, the quests were great, and the combat was a lot of fun.

I like it. I just didn't invest in TM for contraction and Stasis because it's a psychosis build and that'd make casting too expensive. TM is good because it can save a shitty build, it's like dumping ketchup on a bad pizza.

With some free time to game on this frigid Sunday in the mountains, I am currently trying to squeeze the last drops of content out of Underrail before making a new character or starting War Mongrels. I just yesterday finally updated Underrail to 1.1.4.5. I understand Mr. Styg has patched in some cool dungeons and easter eggs to find scattered throughout the game.
Now, I've done the expansion and deep caverns, so I can end the game at any time. I was just wondering if there was anywhere of note to check out or explore before hitting the ending slides. I checked out the group of Lunatics headed up by Synesthete and enjoyed that interaction. It was a nice touch because Twitch up at the top of Occulus had been complaining about a group of Lunatics trying to reach the mainframe through the caves underneath.
Anywhere or anything else of note for me to check out before making the last choice? Thank you! May you get high, get laid, have fun, and stay warm! all that good shit.
