It's a fun DLC, I probably liked it a bit more than Isle of Armour in SWSH. Region has lots of fun nooks and crannies to explore, but still suffers from the same issue as the main game with a lot of... bland areas. The story is nice and I like Ogrepon, so adorable! Though it does feel like setup for part 2 DLC overall, which I expect will be a big step up like Crown Tundra was. I did basically everything (including finishing the Pokedex) other than grind up 1M pokebucks, and it all felt worthwhile, I thought it was clever where they hid some of the ogre clan members. Unfortunately the performance is pretty bad, there's some really shocking framedrops in areas that remind me of the base game at launch, which is very disappointing (and why I'm leaving this unscored).

Also man, that Legends Arceus fanservice went way harder than I expected, I can't believe I already feel nostalgia for that game
