I liked the whole flashback ghosts setup. Really nice way of presenting the history of the keep. I've not found the abilities all that great for my Warrior, but my Mage did enjoy them.

Most people pay $7. And the Warden's Commander Armor is the best suit until you start get Juggernaut/Blood Dragon/Wade's Dragonbone. And the best sword in the game, Starfang.

Well, that sounds awefully like buying gold in an MMO to me. If the reason is to get more powerful equipment than you would normally get while not providing a more challenging experience to compensate, well to me that is kinda like cheating. IMHO that is.

"but.. but.. it's MY keep!"
"NO! you stay OUT!"
:'(
ooh yeah and the "did that evil mage that experimented on templars gave you any trouble?" question should be answered by "i don't know, we can't even get in!"
or maybe it's just a bug in my game :/

Ok...I'm sorry...I don't normally flame people for their comments but really? So using that analogy, you are saying: example - that if someone playing World of Warcraft decides to run the headless horseman event and gets an epic item out of it then they are cheating because they ran an event that really isn't all that challenging and the loot isn't something they would normally get. That just doesn't make any sense to me. It isn't cheating since A. the concept of "challenging" is different for each person and B. It is content provided by Bioware. I can maybe understand if it was a mod or something, but come on.

To be straight, the armor isn't something you automatically get. You only get it by making a certain choice. If you don't make the "certain" choice, you don't get it. And the sword isn't just sticking out of a chest. You have the sword made for you.

Ok, is there more to it then I'm seeing here? Because if this is an idication on what to expect from paying $10 for a DLC then I'm prolly gonna pass over any future ones. I'm not sure if I'm missing something here but it was so not worth it... I breezed through this place is less then a half hour, got absolutly no items of value I can remeber, and no new companions and the keep itself was one of the smallest dungeons I've been to...
Anyone thinking of purchasing this, don't. its a waste of money.
it was def a waste of money. they could have done so much more with it but well..... Didn't. I my self am will probly not buy any more DLC. After i beat the game... ill give it away to a friend.

You have convinced me to purchas this. Thank you.

Yes really, your example does not work because the player did not buy the headless horseman event, how have people 'bought' the items in your example? People are saying that the only reason to buy Warden's Keep is for the really powerful items in there, so they are essentially buying it to gain access to more powerful items than they would normally be able to, which is why I was comparing it to buying gold. I'm not saying it's wrong, just that in a way that is what is happening.

Personally, I wouldn't mind a longer dlc w/ less item incentives. Sure the items and spells were nice, but I'm more interested in playing content.
Also, I believe this illustrates why a full blown expansion is better than dlc. You simply can fit more material and form a larger story arch.
