Battletech by Harebrained Schemes (Shadowrun Returns)

The announcement of Xenonauts 2 got me interested to finally play Xcom2 War of the Chosen which I’ve had in my backlog for a long time. Should I play it as itself, or add all those workshop items Pavonis Interactive added? When I played Xcom 2 originally it was bare bones with no DLC (long time ago).

Sorry for slight threadjack!
