I'm not sure why they were so obsessed with making each DLC for Far Cry 6 a roguelite. Unfortunately by the time I got to this DLC I was partly burned out by the mechanics after playing the 3 villain DLCs back to back, but also relieved that straight away if felt more fun than the Collapse (Joseph) DLC.

In my playthrough of this DLC, I was playing on Medium difficulty but on my way to the 4th (out of 5) shard, got killed by a glitch and was sent back to the beginning. After that I could not be bothered to play the DLC any more then I had to so I switch the difficulty to Easy to avoid getting burnt out.

Very quickly you learn which routes you want to take and which "rifts" you want to avoid. Most of them are creative, but some of them you really don't feel like going into a second time.

I will say the atmosphere in some of the rifts were surprisingly beautiful and stunning. I found the one where you're mostly underwater very immersive and equal parts eerie and beautiful.

I also enjoyed the interactions between Dani and Fae? I can't remember her name without looking it up.

Overall I don't regret playing through it but I am not a fan of Far Cry 6's take on roguelites in general.
