the base game may have been a real stinker, but this isn't.
only thing i'll say is that you really shouldn't pick the skip intro option, the weapons and specialisations they give you if you do skip are god awful, especially if you choose to play on very hard like i did.
go from the start, rush the main story and do a couple of side missions until the dlc introduces itself. Don't trust the feds.
