DLCs - when do you play them?

Do you play these during the main quest - or are they designed to be played after the main quest finishes? I suppose the latter - as they were released later, but I had the whole game plus the DLCs from the start. Wondered what other people do.

I normally play them in order from their release, and space them out a bit. I'll play some of the main quest, play the dlc, play more main game quests, play another dlc(so on and so forth)

 

I always make sure to save LR for right before the final mission, as the dlc's ending references to the coming Hoover Dam battle.

Well for lore and immersion wise I would suggest one of these orders:

 

OWB-DM-HH-LR

DM-OWB-HH-LR

 

Reason being that DM and OWB tie into each other greatly, I prefer the first suggested order too fit things in nicely as playing DM before OWB introduces you too characters in person you would only know of by background story in OWB. HH really doesnt fit in anywhere but it also does not stand out completely, meaning that you could play it at any point for full immersion with the following exception.

 

I do find Lonesome road is almost a second ending quest, and regardless of what decision you choose there you will find it breaking immersion for anything other than moving to finish the main quest in NV all together.

I have Dead Money, but I didn't enjoy it at all.

 

Me neither, it felt all alien and unwelcoming and all i wanted was to get the f*** out of the siere madre and shoot Elijah's ass to oblivion for putting that damned collar on me!

That is exactly the emotional responses DM was based around generating. Both the eerie unease of the environment and the loathsome hate for being turned into a puppet slave by the explosive device around you're neck. I would say you're reason for not liking it is IMO far more valid than most I've seen posted as you appear not to like being emotionaly altered. But thats just my observation.
