In GamingBolt's review of The Division 2's Battle for Brooklyn and Still Wakes the Deep DLC, we dive headfirst into the murky waters of post-disaster exploration. Led by Mahari, players embark on a haunting journey 11 years after the Beier de oiling rig calamity, uncovering mysteries and collecting mementos amidst the wreckage. While the gameplay offers some thrills with air pockets and platforming sections, the overall experience may leave you yearning for more depth and challenge.
As we plunge deeper into the abyss, encountering hallucinations and a menacing monster, the tension builds, albeit with some frustrating bugs and immersion-breaking moments. Despite the visually striking underwater landscapes, the lack of facial expressions and occasional performance issues may leave players feeling adrift. The narrative, centered around Mahari's quest for answers, falls short of delivering a truly compelling storyline, leaving many questions unanswered and emotions unexplored.
While the DLC's voice acting shines, particularly with Mahari's portrayal by Luis Chimamba, certain plot choices and contrivances may leave a sour taste in players' mouths. The ambiguous ending and unresolved mysteries add to the sense of unfulfillment, making the overall experience feel somewhat lacking in substance. Ultimately, while Siren's Rest DLC offers a glimpse into the depths of the unknown, its shortcomings in gameplay and narrative depth may leave players questioning the value of this underwater adventure.
