I heard that there are some DLC that break the game or ruin the experience for you if you use them.

Like breaking Dynamic hair as an example.

My question is, what DLC would I not want to use as a first time player if I want the out of the box experience?

Can someone really just point me in a direction here?
Where did you hear that nonsense?

"When you download the free Beard and Hairstyle DLC the growth of the beard will stop because we decided that when players want a predefined look, it would be weird to require from them to reapply it time after time."

And how is that ruining anything?

That information is totally wrong. I have the beard and hairstyle DLC and I am continually having to visit the barbers to trim his beard. Old information, and wrong.

Intirguing, so what is the new information?
when you have the Beard & Hairstyle DLC installed you have 5 different choices(styles) of Beard to pick, if you choose "Clean Shaven" your Beard does & will grow back over time but if you choose any of the other 4 styles your Beard will not grow back & remains the style you picked.
Only the Clean Shaven Beard will grow back dynamically, hair doesn't grow back. This is how the Beard & Hair DLC has worked since it's release.

All of the DLC released are either cosmetic or add missions that have no effect on the main storyline. If you have the DLC installed you get more choice in customizing your player & a couple of low level missions, if you don't have the DLC installed you're not missing anything important
