Is the fallout 3 dlc worth trying?

Last month I bought fallout new vegas and fallout 3 to play the tale of two wastelands mod with begin again modlist.
I actually finished fallout 3 like 2 weeks ago and was disappointed I did do all the side quest I could I explored most of the capital wastelands. I just want to know if the DLC are worth trying( Never did them before) or should I just head out directly to FN:NV when I decide to pick up the game again?

Edit: Read the comments. I'll at least give the fallout 3 dlc's a try

favorite/least favorite enemies?

what enemies absolutely piss you tf off? from the vanilla game and from the dlcs both

favorites vanilla: the enclave, talon merc company (at bannister/capitol building specifically), supermutatant behemoth

dlc: super mutant overloads sometimes - other times i despise them

least favorite

from vanilla: i HATE mirelurk kings so much, centaurs because they gross me out, giant radscorpions, sentry bots honorable mention: yao guai’s before animal friend perk and deathclaws at inconvenient times - but sometimes they’re fun

dlc: albino radscorpions, trogs bc they’re gross, aliens from zeta bc they’re so annoying honorable mention: reavers but i have the mask so im okay

hot take - broken steel goat dlc

i’ve played through the entire vanilla game two times - all the quests and locations and everything. i’ve played all of the dlc’s once, and honestly broken steel had my favorite quests. i thought it added the most to the story line and fit the game better than the rest of them. i lovedddd the map and the mobile base and honestly just everything about it. except maybe the new enemies lol. the rest of the dlc’s just did not feel like i was playing the same game at all. here’s my ranking of the dlc’s

  1. broken steel
  2. point lookout
  3. three way tie for pitt zeta and anchorage

point lookout was eerie but i liked the quests and storyline and that you could leave and return

i know the pitt tends to be a fan favorite and maybe i just didn’t explore it enough/was frustrated with my game constantly crashing, but i was really disappointed with it tbh

zeta could’ve been sooo much better if it wasn’t so confusing and repetitive and stupid

anchorage was cool but like just did not fit with the rest of the game at all

Does difficulty change what enemies i am fighting?

Im playing on very hard and have gotten the strongest weapons however the game constantly throws super mutants its either masters or brutes wich they are deffinetely tanky enemies to constantly fight.. is it the difficulty that changes the enemies or i just happen to only find super mutants? Also tons of yao guais all over the wasteland

starting a new game

there’s nothing like the feeling of starting a new fallout game and exiting the vault for the first time and going to megaton and talking to mortiary and i think im chasing the feeling of the first time i played fallout by constantly starting new games😭

i just love fallout

i fear this may be too sappy for reddit but genuinely the only reason i’ve kept the app downloaded on my phone is because it’s so nice to be able to talk to other people who also love fallout. i discovered the game when the show came out and it’s probably my favorite video game i’ve ever played and it makes me so happy and i love the lore and all of the niche spots and cool things to find and explore and everyone is just so nice on here and i love that i have a place to just kind of nerd out with people who also just love fallout bc it’s genuinely so special and there’s very few games that have ever meant this much to me or that i’ve ever spent so much time playing. sorry this was the longest run on sentence ever but im not much of a gamer but fallout just makes me :’))))) ive literally only played fallout 3 and im def wanting to play others in the future but i just love 3 so much
