Depends on how old the game is and how big the DLC is IMO. Rimworld, for instance, has quite a few DLCs now, but they are all well worth it if you like the base game. OTOH if a game just has cosmetic DLC or the DLC is coming out super near release that's a red flag.

    I'm of the opinion that Rimworld DLCs don't actually improve the base game, they simply build an extra layer of isolated complexity ontop of the base game. I like the base game but I didn't really enjoy the DLCs (at least not the first 2) because they didn't actually expand the base game. They felt like mods I paid for.
