Like the title! I normally am very critical of Expansions, but sometimes they build upon the base game in very unique ways. I love Dead Money for Fallout: New Vegas, it has the sharpest character writing and turns the game into a Survival Horror experience while remaining authentically "Fallout."

What are y'all's thoughts?

Yep, even when it comes to Fallout 4, the fact that Far Harbor was large enough to contain all of the necessary elements to build a cool new cohesive location, expand on playstyles, and provide a complete narrative vs how empty Nuka World and Automatron were is where I draw big inspiration.

Shadow of the Erdtree has frustrating parts, but is ultimately a prime example of an Expansion vs DLC. Same with Phantom Liberty, for the same reasons as Far Harbor.

Oh I forgot Dark Souls Prepare To Die Edition, which added the Artorias Of The Abyss expansion pack.
