Yes.
I was interested in the idea of the Vampire Lord, until I actually became one and realized it was just a floating Werebat that can shoot magic and (surprise, surprise) not go into first-person.
Which presents the problem of being less accurate with your magic, which you are specifically told is the Vampire Lord's greatest weapon.
Also the fact that you can't open chests, and that the form doesn't look different for every race (or at least the beast races).
The most interesting stuff, to me, was everything in the Forgotten Vale.
The Soul Cairn was a forgettable mass of purple, with purple draugr and a purple skeleton horse, the most interesting thing being (in my opinion) the strange inclusion of Jiub--who doesn't even look like Jiub did.
It was interesting, because Vampires were pretty lame in the Vanilla game, and I thought this would fix that, but it didn't really.
I like the new eye effect, but my Orc already had red eyes (and fangs, too).
For me, it was worth the money, because it added variety, and anything that adds variety is a very good thing in these games.
Keep in mind I have a skewed opinion on the value of my money, and my ultimate justification for buying the DLC once I'd completed the better part of it was that I got more treasure and a few new armor sets.
