The makings for a fun game are there, it just needs a lot more work before it gets there.
If The Technomancer were more unique, many of its flaws could have been overlooked, but with so many similar games available at better prices it's hard to recommend what ultimately feels like a budget RPG.

From the new content, to the new species of enemies, to the sprawling, vibrantly colorful world of Toussaint, Blood & Wine is the exemplar of DLC.
The Following is the type of DLC/expansion that should be industry standard. Its additions to story and gameplay, as well as the tweaking of bugs and glitches from the main game, combine to form a truly entertaining expansion.
