DUDE that just aint cool for the PS3 players. We shouldn't have to be the last to get the DLC. Shame on you. What would your mother say to y'all for not being fair.

Think J.J. Abram's Star Trek Posted Image


I'd rather not.  Star Trek 90210 really should not have been called Star Trek.  "FIRE EVERYTHING"  
"But we don't have a captain!"  ... "We. Do.  Now!" cheesey Myspace face pose.

I liked that movie!!  hope more is to come.  Trekkie here.. 


YEY! Finally someone who liked the movie! Posted Image

Oh, and Frogman, thank you very much for your rather insightful attempt to explain the concept of canon in the DAO universe... Very interesting indeed, even if you did end up confusing the heck out of me... and yourself it appears Posted Image

Think of this adventure as your adventure, but YOU were never around to take part. Dragon Age: Origins was always the tale of the Grey Warden you created and how he or she became the mightiest of Grey Wardens and stopped the Blight. This adventure takes place as if your Grey Warden had never existed.

You play as a hurlock vanguard and use your new "Enthrall" ability to recruit your fellow darkspawn as allies. Partner with shrieks, genlocks, ogres and more. You  will encounter characters from Dragon Age: Origins both party members like Alistair or Morrigan (for example) and NPCs who try to defend Denerim and stop the Darkspawn without your Grey Warden to guide them. As the darkspawn,  you will have to defeat them to destroy Denerim.

If you choose to play Darkspawn Chronicles you can unlock 3 new achievements and, if you complete the story, you unlock the powerful new BlightBlood sword that you can use in Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age: Origins Awakening.

The Darkspawn Chronicles costs 400 BioWare or Microsoft points and will be available on May 18 for the PC and Xbox 360 and on the Playstation 3 with date to be announced shortly.



:devil:


Oh nice..a new item that you can use in both Origins and Awakening...good going.   Item transfer was a problem before..I take it you guys have worked the bugs out on that one. 

That will definitely encourage me to make MORE characters ...hehe 21 and counting :D

Am playing Awakenings now, and trying to see the darkspawn as more complex and somewhat trapped by their circumstances, but I just can't want to be them. So "No" to this from me. But as ideas go, its a simple bit of fun for those that want a little more "stabbity kill kill" that doesn't take to much extra work to put together while the folks behind the scenes work on the patch issues and the quality of serious coming soon content.

I'm gonna skip this one, too. Murdering my old companions is not fun in my book.

Wow,  this thread is booming, 20 pages in 12 hours.  I don't know if my opinion is going to be seen by moderators or not,  but I'll post it anyway.

I really love the Dragonage world.  It's well done and very re-playable.  I will probably buy "Darkspawn Chronicles" soon after it comes out.  I look forward to seeing what else they come up with.

That being said, before more DLC is completed, it would be great if the DLC I already purchased worked completely.  Warden's keep and Return to Ostagar and Stone Prisoner are all great additions.  But everything you saved up from those packs doesn't work in Awakenings!    Not to mention the little glitches in the expack itself.  I'm disappointed that the designers didn't take more care to iron out the kinks, and I'm very concerned that this will end up like KOTOR 2, which never got finished.


Many of the items from SP and WK weren't supposed to transfer over according to the DragonAge FAQ on transferring items. The RtO stuff is supposed to though. My RtO stuff transfered over fine for me (I play DA: O on PC), but I haven't been able to access the new blood powers I picked up in WK, and I thought those were supposed to transfer.


Oh ok.  At least I have an official answer on that one.  But the Warden Armor was awesome looking!

They should give you a choice when you encounter a companion from origins, y'know: kill'em turn'em into ghouls, torture them or happy, pretty fun things like that.



I DO NOT WANT TO KILL MORRIGAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





.......Did I say that out loud.........

Cmon things aren't that bad. Bioware always tries everything they can to make the overall experience better. The way people make it sound is as if they are trying to screw us over but we all know that's not true. I know everyone is frustrated with the glitches in dragon age but that's no need to blow a top off. Creating games is hard and takes time. Fixing one bug can make 10 more bugs to appear out of the air in a second much harder to crack than the first.

We all love bioware (you can't deny it) so we should enjoy what we get and send them cookies for their hard work.
Just accept things and smile :D

The problem I have with that is that they expect us to believe that the company that made the game can't do, in over six months, what modders have done in their spare time. Honestly I doubt Bioware has any say in the matter, I blame EA mostly, they are very bad for relasing buggy games that should've been tested more, just to rush onto the next game, in this case most likely ME3,DA2,ToR. Unfortunately not all of us play on the pc so we have no way to access these fixes made by the community, we're instead stuck relying on a company that has for the most part done nothing to fix this game in over six months. Yes, I understand thatit's different teams not one team for dlc and fixes, which actually makes it worse because it means that they've had six months to fix the game and have given us nothing. It's just disappointing that they expect us to support them when they've shown so little in return.

, the BioWare forums certainly do NOT represent some average customer base.


Of course not, like any discourse, it's the most vocal on either side, while the majority in the middle stay silent. Seriously, if this wasn't an exceptionally lax work week, I'd be lucky to have time to read the forums, much less respond.

I think this sounds like fun.

They should give the Vanguard a voice...

So that if he is successful in killing Alistair at the end he says the following...

"HUMAN! You've changed nothing, you wardens have the attention of those far greater in number. That which you know as darkspawn are your salvation through destruction. You have failed! Behold I am the Vanguard of your destruction!" :wizard:

I always check the help.dragonage site first. They are by no means comprehensive, but they usually have an FAQ for most of the really big issues.

And yes it was nice looking armor.

I got into the relationships as much as the next guy(or maybe not judging by this thread), but the idea of running roughshod over Alistairs whiney butt and/or laying the biggest smack in the game down on Morrigan has its appeal. Even Leliana, who is so damn cute I can't help but get a hero complex with her, will be satisfying in a certain sadistic way to defeat.



*maniacal laugh*

WHERE'S YOUR MAKER NOW ZEALOT?!?!

*louder maniacal laugh*

I SURE AS HELL AIN'T TRYING TO BE MERCIFUL!!!

*loudest maniacal laugh yet*



Sometimes, it's cathartic to embrace your inner evil mastermind. Isn't that part of what the RP in RPG is for?

nah it's mostly dark and moody.And since it's spirt possed it's not real vamp...taught to mix in coupla templars.Mod Idea came from that thing with Connor(Eamon's son)mission but with twist to it.Basiclly some noble or what not bargins with demon form Fade for imortallity and ends up been turned into quasi-vamp..So it's up to u and Elite crew of Templar to investigate and beat a snot out of it.Of course the critter has it's own cronies like undead,weres,vampire thralls,and vampire mistress

LOL personally it would be amazing if this is how DAO2 started off with ferelden taken by darkspawn. OMG A campeign seperate from the original plot as a darkspawn in the secound one would be so kool. Darkspawn dont talk just make sounds so dialogue should be next to nothing and make it a fun distraction from DAO2 main plot. But owell doubt it'd happen.
