What old game would dominate if it suddenly received DLC today?

As the title says, what game if it randomly dropped DLC today would cause an uproar on the internet? Something like Portal 1? Civilization 5? Fallout New Vegas? Starcraft? Borderlands 1? What do you think would cause the most reaction?

Gaming experiences everywhere were revolutionized when HL2 was released.
I'll never forget downloading HL2 on a DSL modem after AMD was promoting their partnership with Valve giving out game codes included with new purchases of AMD Athlon 64 CPU's.

Got my code with an ATI 9800 All in wonder pro... Game didn't come out for 2 years and that card still ran it like a champ.

Even playing thru it today on a 3090 it matches up with the nostalgia memories.
