Interesting.... what the heck does "Darkspawn Chronicles" mean? Play as a darkspawn perhaps?

Good eye! There isn't any word about this anywhere else.

Its only 400 Microsoft points. I am a Ps3'er myself, but that seems like a very small number- what were the other DLC's point values? Maybe its just a Comic, or something like that. It seems like its gonna be pretty insignificant.

Oh yeah, and BTW the latest Firmware update from Sony has borked DA on the Ps3, I'm curious how they are gonna spin this "latest DLC" when they haven't fixed problems all versions have been struggling with for the last six-months....

Good Luck!

EDIT: Return to Ostagar was 400 points, so maybe this will be another re-tread of an already rendered environment with some beasties thrown in.

400 Microsoft Points is five american dollars; it's the same price point as Return to Ostagar

The Leliana DLC is supposed to be for Awakenings, not Origins.

This Darkspawn Chronicles appears to be an add-on to Origins like the previous DLC (ie another destination spot on the Ferelden map). Who knows? Maybe it will tie in with the Architect and some of his early work with the Darkspawn.

Or maybe - a Darkspawn Origin where you can choose to be a Genlock, Hurlok or Ogre and your conversation options are:

1 > Raise your arms and growl!
2 > Draw your sword and threaten!
3 > Decapitate nearest foe!
4 > Disembowel nearest foe!
5 > All of the above

No other conversation options are required since there are no companions and no romances.  Your only quest is to slay as many non-darkspawn on sight!

The Darkspawn Chronicle! Your daily darkspawn newspaper. Today's headlines: Vicious surfacer kills Archdemon, slaughters thousands. Broodmothers weep for lost sons.

I'm curious to see if this is mainly for Origins or Awakenings. Either way it really doesn't matter for me. I intend to get all the DLC, expansions, and sequels that are released for this game. As far as the DLC having a patch, not sure it would. But for those having issues still with the game I hope a patch does come out soon.

Interesting, only two weeks away, and no advertising/marketing so far?

A patch for Awakenings bundled with an Origins DLC?? Doubtful. I think players would seriously complain about having to buy a DLC in order to get a patch. If there is to be a patch, it SHOULD be freely distributed.

Are microsoft points equal to bioware points?

Agreed, a patch would be nice to save Awakenings at the end.  Strange no official announcment.  Hmmm, maybe another feastday prank type thing.   The DLC will pop up just like the feast day gifts.

judging by the price. it will probably be another one hour adventure like Return to Ostagar. oh well, I hope it brings some cool armor and achievements at least

And like RtO, I expect the items to be transferrable to Awakenings.  Image IPB

lol, of course it was not meant like buying a patch, it was meant that the dlc uses a new version of dragon age, so a patch could see the light before the dlc comes out

Patch 1.03 came with Awakenings. BioWare better hurry up then, May 18th isn't that far away.

I thought Ostagar came out before patch 1.03. We probably won't see another really good patch until the next game version. In Feb, 2011.

So 2 weeks and not even a synopsis for this DLC? Is this a new tactic Bioware is trying?
