You could say alot of bad things about this add-on, however, for people who are into the multiplayer this satisfies enough.

*yawn*. I love the different flavors each multiplayer faction has so when they make a DLC pack that actually makes a difference or adds something like another faction then you can call me back

There's also a car attachment that's supposed to help you find collectibles like bound serpents.  I feel really bad for wanting to buy this for that reason alone.

Is there actually a solid community of people playing the multiplayer aspect of this that would be excited about this?

Hahaha I love how one of the Mount Rockmore heads was Raz from Psychonauts. I'm sure the other head were from Tim Schaefer's other games but Raz is the only person I know.

Already sold the game, I play games VERY slowly (I have yet to finish MW II SinglePlayer.), but I finished this game in one evening. True, didnt get all the dragons and other collectible stuff, but there was no real insentive to look for them. My biggest disappointment of the year, and I wasn't even all that hyped for it to begin with.

Yes sir! The story was waaay too short. Let's hope this DLC has some meat to it.
 
/finds out it's not more story
 
Never mind.

That is most certainly not a mullet. The hair is pretty long in front, disqualifying it from mulletdom.

So you get more maps and the ability to play the game with a beard? Hmm I was expecting more story content so no thanks.

so is anyone actually excited for accessory content like this?
 
I feel the core gameplay experience wasn't good enough to warrant any of this, but they gotta make something back for all their efforts I suppose...I just wonder who the hell is going to buy it when the core game wasn't much fun. The story and art visuals - hell yes, the gameplay experience.. meh.

The only thing interesting about this game was the lore and the story. I don't get why anyone at double fine thought it was a good idea to make some more maps for the horrible multiplayer (and a beard) than to extend the singleplayer.

No thanks, I'm stilled mad at the game for tricking me into dusting off my 360 and paying $70 for the POS game.

The Stage Battles are actually rather enjoyable... you just have to forget playing defensively like it's a regular RTS. It's more Sacrifice than Starcraft.
 
... but sure, if you go in expecting Tim Schafer's God of War you will be disappointed.
 
I agree though singleplayer DLC would've been nice. Perhaps a mini-campaign with Ophelia and Doviculus as playable factions (though not sure how you could work that into the fiction). As it is, the only way to play as them is the multiplayer, or a custom AI game...

It's worth the $5 IMO. It seems to have some cool new trophies/achievements, more multi-player maps (It is fun unlike what you hear!) and the eye of ocelot is  implemented well. Rather then littering the map with stuff, you have a eye mounted on the back of the deuce that blandly stares at the closest point of interest. No taking you out of the world. Better then a mini-map too! New deuce weapons as well.

Did they just make a list of everything we don't want out of Brutal Legend DLC and put it into Brutal Legend DLC?

Eddie Riggs must have held out on shaving until I actually play Brutal Legend. Not likely. Sorry, Tim Schafer. :(
