Dark Souls II's three DLC episodes aren't as great as they could have been, but they are still good additions to the core experience that are worth a try for dedicated Souls fans. These three expansions are also included in the new Scholar of the First Sin edition of Dark Souls II, alongside a slew of improvements, such as better balance, different enemy placement, and new NPCs, which will be part of a free patch for existing owners of the title. For those that have yet to venture into Drangleic, this updated release might just be the best opportunity to jump in. Meanwhile, fans that have already conquered Drangleic may find it a convenient excuse to tackle it all once again.
