So I was excited to finally get a chance to play through the Ancient Gods DLC after reacquainting myself with the base game on nightmare difficulty. After spending a few hours with part 1, I was at the point where I was considering retroactively removing my praise for the base game. the Ancient Gods is almost proof that there is too much of a good thing with a very interesting course correct in part 2.
