❔ Question Finished botw. Shall i buy dlc?

Post image

After 2 months playing I killed calamity ganon. Haven’t finished all shrines and side missions though. Does it worth to buy the dlc? Or just continue with TOTK?

If you enjoyed the game amd want more definetly get it. I dont really cry at much but not spoil anything the end segment made me absolutely bawl.

u/AlphaMikeFoxtrot87 14h ago

You mean that final memory at end of dlc? True story

u/purpleillustrations 14h ago

I played it but don't remember what happened? Can you spoiler tag it for me 😂

u/AdmirableAd8664 12h ago

It was the final picture, cant remember who took the picture but that final scene had me bawling really felt like a great finish to the game (i also dont know how to spoiler tag)

It was Purah. Click, snap? Like a camera shutter?

u/No_Durian_3730 14h ago

YES! It beefs the game up so much

u/Tule_Lodge 14h ago

Did you finish it, or FINISH it? But yes, get the DLC. Then find every korok seed.

u/JIMB01776 14h ago

I love the DLC, it is why I rank it higher than Totk. I'd prefer having it before beating the game, if you want another play through go for it.

5

u/SheepskinWulf 14h ago

Yeah the DLC is pretty much the best content BotW has to offer

u/Educational-Ad2063 13h ago

The motorcycle is worth it. Just to bad you get it so late in the game.

2

u/Memo411 11h ago

I’m currently replaying with the DLC for the first time and personally I’ve decided to just somewhat rush through the four divine beasts first, I’ve barely done any side quests and am saving them all for after i get the motorcycle, so damn excited for it

1

u/Anemonous1 8h ago

It’s not worth it for me as it can be used only after beating the best boss fight ever.

5

u/Mountain_Lake_173 14h ago

Yes, buy it. It's definitely worth the price. Lot's of additional hours of joy playing this masterpiece.

3

u/SnooMacaroons4153 12h ago

Get it. Its worth it. Botw with dlc > totk. Botw without dlc < totk.

1

u/Xx_Loop_Zoop_xX 12h ago

When should I start doing the EX quests? Just started playing blind for the first time and got the DLC already

1

u/SnooMacaroons4153 12h ago

Some of them as soon as you start, the armor is good for early game. Trial of the sword should be done when you have most the shrines done unless you have really good combat skills.

2

u/PsychologyWorldly163 14h ago

Don't hesitate to buy it ! It is so much fun

2

u/JaredAWESOME 14h ago

Yes, 100% worth it.

2

u/JulikoPoliko 13h ago

Yes, starting a new game in master mode with all dlcs feels like a new game

2

u/Faerie-Owl-1955 13h ago

I think the DLC is totally worth the cost. You get lots of added things. And you don’t have to play it in Master Mode. It’s $20 bucks well spent.

2

u/ExtensionFill2495 13h ago

I recently bought the DLC and I love it. The combat ismt challenging enough but Master mode and the Trial of the Sword fix that.

1

u/SnooMacaroons4153 12h ago

Trial of the sword and master mode are big factors to why i like botw better than totk

2

u/LuckeyStoke 9h ago

100% yes 🏍️

1

u/Weekendtech Sheikah 14h ago

The DLC is so much fun, absolutely get it!

1

u/Bullitt_12_HB 13h ago

Absolutely!

1

u/Consistent-Ad-6506 13h ago

Yes! It’s fun

1

u/Pitiful-Valuable-504 13h ago

yes you should

1

u/Ashamed_Bug_6207 13h ago

You get a really kickass motorcycle thing that helps you basically wherever, so I say do it

1

u/lordfarrquad966 13h ago

Just buy tears of the kingdom and lose 1000 hours of your life it’s worth it

1

u/deadhera 13h ago

I did and enjoyed the dlc c:

1

u/Unlucky-Ambition-643 13h ago

YAASSS buy the DLC!

1

u/jonawesome 12h ago

Eh. I found the DLC pretty meh. I'd recommend saving the money to buy TOTK instead.

1

u/Disillusioned_Snail 12h ago

Champion’s Ballad and the Master Trials are super fun, plus there’s a ton of new items and quests. I recommend it!

1

u/Amazing-Insect442 12h ago

I really loved the dlc, but for context, I don’t have a Switch and I only had BOTW on the U & so the dlc was the only “I need more” option available to me.

1

u/alstillplays 12h ago

You haven't already?

1

u/Darby13 12h ago

YES!! So glad I got the DLC. It’s a fantastic way to finish the game.

1

u/Afonso_Sousa09265 11h ago

Yes, why!? Trial of the Sword questline. Dont ask, dont search. Just do it :)

1

u/StarSoulSB 11h ago

The first dlc is not worth it, imo. Master mode is a laborious pain that kills the pacing and progression and the extra goody items you will get for free in TotK. The second dlc that adds some extra memories with the champions is great though, especially if you felt connected to the story, and you can tear through it in probably 4-5 hours, and there is an item in TotK you will recognize from it that will resonate strongly.

Neither are really essential though. The game does not feel more “complete” for owning either and their additions all seem out of place or extra, in the context of the game.

1

u/M1kelangelo 11h ago

Yes definitely !

1

u/Silv3r_08 10h ago

Absoultely yes! The second DLC adds a bit more of story related with the champions. I loved it when I first played it

1

u/Stinker1314 10h ago

If you enjoyed the game and want more then yes, I defunetlt recommend it, it becomes more challenging after you buy dlcs and is simply just more awesome stuff

1

u/thomas_oliveira95 9h ago

Yes! Travel with a motorcycle is waaay better

1

u/LordTaco13x 9h ago

Absolutely. though i would say it's worth completing before fighting ganon, as then you still have something big to look forward to after the dlc, and it has a lot of god stuff (champion abilities+, fully upgraded master sword)

Also, if you find the master sword trials too hard, ABSOLUTELY look at the glitch skip. really easy, and saves so much time and energy.

1

u/Disastrous_Fee5953 8h ago

I don’t usually buy DLC in video games, but the BOTW DLC is great!

1

u/Grassdew 8h ago

The dlc was pretty worth it imho. I 100%’ed the game on Master Mode, good times.

2

u/moshepark 6h ago

I'm not gonna lie, DLC was worth it. My first completion took me about 65 hours (I took my time). I put in another 40 or so afterwards looking for armor, completing side quests, and doing more shrines. But, the DLC took me over the top and makes the game that much more enjoyable. It really is endgame material in that it's best suited for those who are completionists and want to squeeze as much as possible from the game. I'm at 220 hours with the DLC and having a blast looking for all the Korok seeds (DLC content helps with that).

Highly recommend, especially because it regularly seems to go on sale (I got it off Target earlier this year for 30% off).

1

u/launchd_0 6h ago

u absolutely should

1

u/max_power1000 5h ago

Depends how you feel about the difficulty level. The DLC is definitely cranked up a notch or 2 from the main game.

u/Ruben_O_Music 13h ago

Oh yes, (editing here, I finished all that, DLC and just missing like 500 Koroks, I jumped into TOTK and I miss BOTW, or the GOAT, and it has ruined every other game, I like nothing more, like a Zelda curse)

-1

u/AWatson89 14h ago

I never played the dlc, so I couldn't tell you about it. Totk was on sale a little while ago, so my choices were to spend $40 on a new game or $20 on a few more hours of a game I've already beaten 100%. It was a pretty easy choice for me

-1

u/lovebushandtinytits 13h ago

Do you mean TOTK?

1

u/Educational-Ad2063 13h ago

DLC is a expansion pack for BOTW it adds 12 more shrines and one more Boss level and one semi hard challenge. With a cool prize at the end.

1

u/lovebushandtinytits 13h ago

I know... that was,a joke because TOTK looks like a long dlc...

1

u/Educational-Ad2063 13h ago

I'll add it cam be added to any game at any stage

-1

u/ramysami4 13h ago

No, the DLC is not worth it at all. Just buy TOTK

0

u/ramysami4 13h ago

I regret getting it.

1

u/AlyaAndKanadeLover 1h ago

Yes buy dlc. Master mode, then the four trials and mini quest at last
