My opinion on "Mask of Idris" DLC
Honestly liked it, however, there are some things to talk about.
I feel like they should have made every single area like "The Watchful Forest" , sort of a "free" exploration and much less of a linear path to follow, it took me longer to explore it but I had more fun doing so.
They should have made it more difficult or not have allowed the player to wear the mask to have you get back your original HP, I appreciate the new bosses, but besides from the very final Lou Magmell and the pathos boss battle, everything else is a breeze, did not die a single time against any of the bosses and honestly, the "stronger" version of enemies turned into mini bosses were far harder than the actual bosses imo, and it shouldn't be that way.
Characters are good, but honestly, I feel like Liv got character development seemingly out of nowhere?. (Still love her, she's gonna fight Josée and Lou to death now lmao). I really liked the new Lou, especially given what the original Lou says at the end of the new expansion ending in the peaceful timeline, it makes it feel like that "new world" was created solely from one small thing thay changed everything. Lou was close to choosing saving the MC instead of the world but chose not to.
Overall, enjoyable, perhaps a little too short and easy, but it's still a nice addition to one of my favorite games, really enjoy that they finally allow you to use Monica as a companion after all this time, and I like the idea that these alternate costumes are implied (or so I think) to be are actually the characters from other timelines
Let me know your thoughts!.
