DLC should be used to add/experiment with new features (Space flight/combat)

This is certainly my opinion, but I think any DLC for most franchises/games should be used to as a way to add new features to games and give the devs an opportunity to take more risks with game designs.

For a game as massive as Mass Effect Andromeda there are so many risks that the game developers take to present a fresh experience to its audience.  I, for one, love the new open world aspects of Mass Effect, but it's a turn off for many people.  I would like to see more changes instead of treading on familiar grounds.


One risky feature I think would be adding in space combat/manual flight.  Looking at how No Man's Sky was originally advertised before it flopped, being able to pilot a ship from planet surface to orbit and then warp to another planet could work well with Mass Effect.  Engaging in combat while flying in orbit, or flying around an "anomaly" would work really well in this game if done right.  Of course limiting where we can enter the atmosphere of planet and landing in a specific area like EOS' open world area would make the most sense.  DLC could also explain why we aren't using the Tempest and would give us a three manned fighter craft.  Entering and exiting the atmosphere of planets can still be cutscenes or the can use the assets that they used for entering the atmosphere of Habitat 7 via shuttle.  If successful, the devs can expand upon this mechanic in future games.


Thoughts?


What other risky game mechanics would you like to see?  Do you think DLC is appropriate or would you rather something like this be implemented in the next game?
