    Disappointing!
    Reusing of existing content. old areas, same weapons, same enemies...
    giant new dungeons? lol, its the smallest one and finished in 1 hour... Compared with Witcher 3 DLCs - the work from nintendo is horrible saddly all DLCs does not change the ending. Content overview: Find 4 MetaShrines finish for each Metashrine 3 challenges and 3 shrines, go to the last dungeon.    Disappointing!

    Utter **** Highlights some of the worst gameplay in the game (stealth), too difficult, unoriginal, uninspired. Not worth the time or money. Was this an intern project?

    Can't say I was a fan. Played and found it too easy and quite boring. I really don't see the fuss about these games. Bright garbage for children.

    Not recommended.

    Other than the dungeon, which is fantastic, and the completion motorcycle item, this DLC is boring and forgettable.. Same generic goblin enemies and same dull cutscenes make this the worst "Story" DLC I have ever played. Nintendo, look at Witcher 3's DLC to see how to make a season pass worth it.

    Feels like the laziest one could've gotten with dlc. The shrines are a bit better but thats not saying much since it just highlights how awful all the other shrines in the game are and the final dungeon is still depressingly easy and has no identity to itself. Overall very disappointing. Although the final boss was dope, better than ganon that for sure.

    The secrets and surprises are worth the cost of entry. [Issue #32 – March/April 2018, p. 26]

    Not quite what was advertised, but a splendid coda to one of the greatest games ever made. [Feb 2018, p.78]

    The second DLC provides more things to play and experience than the last one, with new combat, new puzzles, new areas to explore, and new story to dig.
