Fascinating list to me because I actually think Arrival is the best, and I actively recommend to anyone playing the game for the first time NOT to play Citadel. As a general rule I think the ME2 DLC’s are better because they slot into the base game more easily, and if the length of some of them is too distracting (Lair of the Shadow Broker), you can choose to play it after the main story instead. All of 3’s DLC is long. Leviathan at least can be split across the campaign in episodes but does spoil a lot of the mystery and dread of the Reapers. Omega locks you in for too long and is a distraction from the wider galactic war campaign. Citadel is great fan service, but completely kills the momentum of the game. Nobody should ever play it on their first campaign. Totally it’s also so gamey/disney multiverse happy ending, it really clashes with the overall tone and especially finale of ME3. My list coming soon… #MassEffect
