I think that this DLC will take place after Awakening. What is the point of releasing another DLC for Origins with the expansion already out? I mean, I guess that the people that didn't buy Awakening are not even buying DLCs, and it makes sense -- in Awakening we don't get a post-campaign save becase there will be no time, during the campaign, to do a whole DLC side-quest. But if the DLC takes place after the expansion, then we can simply import our character from the last save, which is right before the final confrontation.



My hopes are really skyrocketing.

I think I will try really, really hard to not get any hopes up at all until we have some real news.



Hard though as it may be, Leliana being my favorite character.

I wonder what kind of dlc may be this

I mean add a new mission?, or continue the story after the end of the expansion

if it is a DLC-style warden's keep, as separate mission with nothing to do with the plot of the expansion, if not worthwhile

I also wonder that appearance will have leliana as a new partner (i doubt it), a mission with her,
or just a cameo as Allister or wynne

i prefer to be a DLC for DA: O, I don't like the new dialog system  of the expansion

But the, if it is for DA:O, it also means that there cannot be any story progression. I don't know about you, but I definitely want to see what happens next, maybe as a bridge between Awakening and a second expansion pack, or directly Dragon Age 2.

yes i also want that, i want a new missions after the end of the expansion (Road to orlais), because the end of the xpac is a little WTF?, is all?.

I too hope any DLC picks up after Awakening and moves the story forward in some way. But it just seems that the way they have the DLC and Expansion packs set up, all add on content will be based within Origins. So if it has to import any choices or stuff I would guess it will just go off of the last Origins save and nothing from Awakening- you have to figure that Bioware wants to make the most $$$ possible with their DLC, so they wouldn't limit it to only people who have Awakening, which is in turn only a fraction of the people with Origins...

It's an odd DLC considering the fact she was killable and easily avoidable in the OC, though I suppose the characters immense popularity massively overshadows that fact. Perhaps a DLC for most all the old school companions is in the works? And exactly what this thing would center, I mean the way Corrine talked it sounded like it was a major part would a DLC center around a companion?

So, is this dlc actually related to Awakening then? That is, do we access it from the Awakening campaign? I guess it would be odd to release an Origins dlc after Awakening has come out but "the dlc is a separate product" could go either way.


They said they'd be releasing Origins DLC for two years. Also, in selling Origins DLC, they can't make it dependent on Awakening. It's almost certain that DLC will be for Origins, and the Origins timeline, not post Origins

I don't understand people who think this dlc will be origins only...



I doubt they would go "back in time" and make something from before Awakening... how would that affect a transfer? What about a level cap?



Awakening is clearly the continuation of the story, and I cannot see an event that is put in between the two chapters.



However, it would make perfect sense to make it *either* playable for after Origins like a normal dlc, and after Awakening.



So the dlc could work with both.

This would make sense, if it's just DLC I can't imagine anything from Awakening being particularly important.

Even a DLC just of Leliana giggling at random while the Warden went about doings things would be worth it.

Hope we have some sort of official info soon, but given the track of silent treatment, I'm not holding my breath.

Actually, bioware is in a curious and somewhat delicate position when it comes to communicating with us.

With RTO, they gave too little info during the delay and the board saw red.

With the epic community event, they gave too much info, and hyped it up and it backfired.

So, let's see them find nice a middle ground. :) 

Something tells me though that this probably wasn't supposed to be talked about so early (provided  the OP interpreted things correctly.)

There should be 3 DLCs in the works.

Return to Ostagar - DAO_PRC_CP_1
The Stone Prisoner - DAO_PRC_CP_2
Feast Day Gifts - DAO_PRC_CP_3
Feast Day Pranks - DAO_PRC_CP_7

that's 3 DLCs in between that haven't been shown yet, but are in the works, otherwise why would pranks be 7 instead of 4 or even 5 if there was just one.

ya I know there could be more since wardens keep is DAO_PRC_NRX_1 but still just saying.

Yeah - I have to agree.



I don't want any real serious DA:O content that has to come BEFORE DA:A.



That'd be like getting major expansion stuff to Mass Effect 1 at this point.

Reaally ? :huh:

You guys really are a different breed from "old schoolers" like me if you actually think in that way.

There are people who still put in hours of their time and make free mods for BG 1. Yes, I said 1 not 2.


You guys move on from games very quickly, and the thing is, corporations just love it that way.

It's a given there is going to be a DLC for Awakening. That's the new "In" thing these days by game developers. What better way then to add DLC content for all the Origins favorite characters to be incorporated back into the game.



Smart move by the Dragon Age marketing department.

the romance will come back and they'll atleast add zevran and leliana on awakening im sure all the upset fans yelling at bioware is making it so hopefully they hear our crys for romance and classic dao charaters in awakening although i love anders!
