I do like fashion souls more than caring about stats especially if it's a single player game, does origins have cool outfits?

Do they have any worthwhile dlc?

Yes, and at least one goofy one. Since you can get a Choco-camel(A camel cosplaying as a Chocabo from Final Fantasy that is part of an FFV/AC minicrossover event. Even has a nice sword and shield.). There is fair amount of variety from stuff that looks tribal, to religious armor that has animal helmet, but one of the best armors to my knowledge is no longer available since you can't do the Trial of the Gods weekly event anymore. The servers got shutdown.

DLC for Origins
Curse of the Pharoahs was pretty fun. Though the thing they replace mercenaries with can be challenging early on. I especially loved fighting giant scorpions in tall grass.
DLC for Odyssey
I enjoyed the Atlantis Trilogy. Episode 1 and 3 more then 2. Though all of them let you play around Greek Heroes and Gods. Legacy of the First Blade felt like an odd addendum to the lore.

I preferred Origins more. It's a simpler game.

Odyssey may have alot more to do, but if you don't get with the RPG mechanics of it you'll really feel like you're constantly under the boot. Especially when it comes to deciding to upgrade weapons/armor or craft new ones. Weapon/Armor levels are important, and higher level weapons/armor will require quite a bit work even if you're looting everything everywhere you go(also try not to upgrade something unless you really like it, and even then every 10 lvls is usually fine). They did patch it to make it a little easier, but if you push to level 100+(preferably with dlc) you will notice how insane the system is in that regard. Main game should put you around lvl 50 by the end, and some of the bosses will really test you. Unless you're a Dark Souls fan then this game might be a cake walk. Personally I found it a slog more often then not(specifically when dealing with the Cult), and enjoyed the DLC more then the main game.
