Unlike the main game, this expansion is disappointing. It's basically a series of boss fights connected by a pretty linear quest. And the boss fights are frustrating: enemies with 10000000 hit points, where if you make one mistake, you're dead. And your sword will do almost no damage to most of them. Doesn't matter how well you can dodge and parry; even a very solid series of hits with the sword will do basically nothing to them. So if you put your skill points into swordfighting, well, it sucks to be you. The bosses all have some weakness that will take lots of trial and error to figure out, but even once you find it, yeah, you need to hit them like 50 times before they go down. And if you make one mistake, you're dead.

tl;dr: alternates between fairly boring quest storyline, and frustrating boss fights.
