Both DLCs are mainly there to shed more light on the fantastic world of the original game - and to act as promises of future games. You won’t have as much fun actually playing them, though, mainly due to the frustrating combat.

A satisfying new chapter that develops the story of 'Control' but doesn't add much to the playground.
The Foundation is a decent expansion to Control, as it gives us a reason to be Jesse Faden again, but it lacks something really new, fresh, challenging and spectacular to be considered as a memorable time.

More of the same as in the main game, with quite a bit of additional lore and some extra mods (with no extra space for them...), but with very lazy level design - the majority of the map are just rock tunnels that all look and feel the same, hence the -1 to the rating.

For the most part I loved/am loving the expansion with the only issue I have being a pretty major one. At the point of writing this, I was quite happily playing along and have had the game crash twice, the first I was able to escape from by using a bit of Alt Tabbery… but the second time that would not release me from the game, no crash report, nothing. Control Alt Del did very little but by using the windows key I was able to bring up the start menu and though I couldn’t do much there I was able to restart the computer. I’m not currently keen to jump back in, preferring to wait to see if there’s a patch, but I would love to continue playing in the world of Control and that’s testament to the game world Remedy have created. If you share my love for the game world, the story, the whole feel for Control then I’m sure you will want to get The Foundation!

Polished DLC at a Remedy-like quality standard – and that's a huge compliment. The ability to modify the environment doesn't leave a mark, but the narrative, the new floor and the gunplay more than compensate for that minor drawback. Waiting for the Alan Wake DLC, The Foundation is an excellent reason to visit the Oldest House again.

The new visit to the Oldest House is thoroughly enjoyable, while expanding on the strengths of the main game.

The Foundation is a (too) linear and fun end game mission for Control. The setting is very weird and fascinating and it's really amazing to unleash the full Jessy potential. On the other hand, the new power, Shape, is less creative and game changing than it should have been, and the result is that the exploration and gameplay feels a little bit railroaded.

The Foundation is an honest DLC, which extends the main adventure opening a narrative parenthesis that is not exactly explosive, but still solid and convincing.

The world of Control has its hooks in me, but I still don't particularly enjoy playing it. The platforming isn't any kind of challenge or thrill, and the combat fills me with rage and despair. It's interesting that a game called Control can make me feel like I have no control over my character or the battlefield. Traps help, but they only go so far.

The Foundation is an enjoyable follow-up to Control. There are new enemies and some unexpected twists in level design. The atmosphere is great with lots of mystery and tension. I definitely recommend if you enjoyed the base game.

Неплохое длс. Купил оба дополнения за 300. Рекомендую покупать только во время скидок, так как длс очень короткое, ее можно пройти за 3 часа. Это длс должна рассказать о прошлом Старейшего дома и справляется длс с этим некоторых местах не раскрыто.

Pretty good DLC adds more to the story but gameplay is still the same and new abilities dont add much.
