At least I got an achievement I didn't get the first run.

As for right save you mean the epilogue save in origins? So, you are saying, you did the DR, imported the epilogue save and she did not recognize the DR?

Even if it weren't bugged, however, it's still terrible. Before Witch Hunt, Morrigan's story left with a cliffhanger and a lot of unanswered questions. After Witch Hunt, Morrigan's story is still left with a cliffhanger and none of those questions answered. What was the point? At the end of Witch Hunt, we don't know anything more than when we started. Gee, Flemeth isn't what she appears to be...thanks, Captain Obvious. Change is coming to the world? I would hope so, that seems to be all they're harping about for DA2. Morrigan upset that you betrayed her and didn't do the DR? Hey buddy, you never told me the reason for the DR in Redcliffe, and you *still* don't tell me in Witch Hunt! This just all seems like a tacked-on adventure whose sole purpose is to throw a bone to the rabid Morrigan fans. I can honestly say this was the first time I played a Bioware product and asked myself at the end "what the hell was the point?"
Minor points that annoyed me:
- Why do they need to ask you to name your dog again? You mean you can import my save but no one bothered to find the variable that stores the name of your dog?
- Where are my other companions? There's no reason why Leliana, Zevran, or even Alistair won't be there (considering that for some players, Alistair might be the father of the OGB).
- Reused areas...again. It's sad that there are players out there who expect this from a "mere" DLC, as if it were ok. A few reused areas is fine, if it makes sense in the story. Blatantly revolving your story around reused areas just screams lack of effort.
- Ridiculously easy fight difficulty, even on nightmare. Just turns most of the 2 hours into a chore to slog through, since you're basically sleepwalking through every fight.
To be fair, I'll highlight the few things I liked about this DLC:
- While I'm sick of temporary companions in DLC, at least it seems more effort was put into the ones here. Ariane was great to have around, and Finn was entertaining (if a bit over the top). The banter went a long way towards elevating them from the status of mere meatshields.
- Entertaining tidbits, like the humorous (and sometimes foreshadowing) books in the Circle Tower to random mage gossip. The reference to Isabela and the nugs at the Pearl was hilarious.

Personally I think the ending of Witch Hunt answered all the questions it needed to... because the rest of the story will be filled in during another game. Didn't the final boss look familiar? I think it's pretty obvious Morrigan is travelling through time to raise a child... a powerful child... one who will become strong enough to defeat "the true threat", Flemmeth. And his name will probably rhyme with flock.
Ya... because game companies are well renowened for always telling us the truth.
DA2 starts in Lothering.
The place that got you know? Destroyed? during Dragon Age Origins.
Yeah, I don't get why people have trouble with that. Between Bioware saying that the game starts during the early parts of Origins and flat out saying, "Hawke isn't the god child," I would have thought that it would be clear. Is it possible the child will show up? Maybe. Be alluded to? Almost certainly. And if the child doesn't come up in DA2, I'd suspect we'll see a lot of him in DA3(assuming there is one). So unless Bioware decides to scrap the beginning of the game, which is probably not going to happen six months from release, it is chronologically impossible for Hawke to be Morrigan's kid.

Flemeth will probably warp reality somehow for DA2. Morrigan's dialogue really seemed like a metaphor for we the fans. That's my 2 cents.

No I first played it with my GoA save which was: DAO normal save(No epilogue because I wanted to change some armor etc) > Awakening > GoA
Now I played with my DAO epilogue save.

Anyone else think the DLC should be renamed "Glitch Hunt"?
Me.
I tried giving this DLC another chance, (well, two chances) as I played with two other origins. The glitch is still there. Hopefully there will be a patch soon, either from Bioware (not really holding my breath as they have a tendency to leave the bugs as they are) or the awesome modding community. I wouldn't be surprised if the modders come up with a bug fix first.

"Never follow me." With these words, Morrigan vanished into the shadows.
Now i know why she told me not to follow:P
*you may find more than you bargained for.
Another truth in the description of the dlc

The end.
Kinda made my original US ending seem pointless, because, hey, it's all good. Boo.

Plus to what you said earlier, no PC in romance with Alistair is able to have a god baby instead of Morrigan. You do not possess the knowledge of the ritual, period. Only Morrigan can do it.

Let me put it this way: If Hawke is NOT Morrigan's child, then this going to be one lame-ass, piece-o-crap story. In case you missed it that was: LAME-ASS. As in Lame and Ass. Not one or the other. The combined crap power of LAME and ASS. Even Hollywood would be ashamed to call this one their baby.

Hawke is not Morrigan's child. That has been confirmed by the developers for quite a while already.
Besides, Hawke is already an adult at the start of Origins, while the OGB hasn't even been born.

You need to start it from the main menu. Select the option, "Other Campaigns".

Killed morrigan first time,and she fell into the mirror.
replayed from save after the credits and talked, not much change in dialogue, she left through mirror.
Seems she leaves through mirror, alive,dead, in pieces whatever. Mirror/morrigan in you go girl!!
Some nice pressies for origins though, nice bow, war axe and robes.
Added to the GOA stuff and you can get pretty powerful very early on in Origins as a mage or rogue.

@ Elvalia - How can Architect change the godbaby? It is a bug, and Bioware recognize it.
Plus to what you said earlier, no PC in romance with Alistair is able to have a god baby instead of Morrigan. You do not possess the knowledge of the ritual, period. Only Morrigan can do it.
As for the bug, I didn't know it was actually a bug and Bioware recognized it as such. Do you have a link that they have confirmed that it is a bug officially, I'm not discounting your word, just would like official confirmation from Bioware/EA.
For Morrigan and the godbaby, that isn't fully true, Morrigan did the ritual with Alistair, Loghain, or Warden Male pc, but she also said in your talk with her at Redcliffee that the pregnancy and child is a host for said arch demon's soul, this still doesn't take away from the possibility of any female pc in my view. The child is just a host for the god to live and become untainted in it's rebirth. Morrigan still did the ritual, prepared it or whatever, the female warden still had relations with Alistair/Zevran/ or even Loghain, and it still hasn't been fully confirmed that a female warden can't have a child, Fiona's storyline hints that it is possible, rare but possible. For Morrigan to claim that the male/female betrayed her has something to do with Awakenings is all I'm saying. Until I have an actual link where the bug has been acknowledge, then for LORE purposes the possibility exists for female pc players to have the child instead of Morrigan.
The bug from what I've read seems to be happening when playing Awakenings then on to Witch Hunt. I've read on the forums those that didn't import an Awakening's character are not getting the bug, but the correct dialogue for their choices from their games in the original story exempt of Awakenings.
Anyways, as to the lore and possible choice for the end of Witch Hunt is just pure fun speculation. Please don't take it as being to serious, my comments are purely for fun, which rpg is susposed to be.

Here's a link where Bioware confirms the bug. Also, it's not related to importing from Awakening, read my above post where I mention the cause of the bug.

Thank you for the link, once again, it seems to be another issue with a bug from Awakenings. Figures.
