> PIPELINE SUMMARY CONNECTED...
The community is split between nostalgic fans happy to see DD1 getting love and cynical veterans who see this DLC as a glorified mod pack. Positives are the new classes and the return to the classic formula, while negatives slam the lack of new monsters, burn resistance, and integration with existing content, calling it an 'unfinished modder's project'. It's a $6.99 gamble that has some players hyped and others feeling like Red Hook just cashed in on good faith.
