It depends on how they handle post game support. To be frank, this is the area for Bioware that I feel they could most improve on.

I'm hoping they can turn a new leaf with Dragon Age 2 and put a lot more effort into their post release support and content. It will go a long way towards making the customers believe they truly care about the game and aren't just mindless EA drones.

I've never been a big fan of purchasing DLCs, but if they can change my perception of their company and then release some content heavy DLC, I'll consider buying it. If they continue to be slow on patch fixes, and too quick to release buggy software, I wont consider buying it.

Only if it is a full expansion like Awakenings. Otherwise it just isn't worth it to play some of the same boards all over again like they did for Origins.

[Vigil11]

Only if it adds something in the story.

[Shatterkiss]

No DLC for me. Bioware games are now in the "wait for the collector's edition" category for me.

[hazarkazra]

The DLC should be post game. ME2 got a lot of DLC missions were only the Lair of the Shadowbroker took into account that you probably finished the game by now.

It's useless to give me missions that only add to the playtime of a normal playthrough, if I already beaten the game several times by the time it releases.

Yes, even though I'm very dissapointed with the game, I'm interested how will Bioware try to fix it.

[JaegerBane]

I doubt I'll be buying any more DA2 DLC. I actually enjoyed Sebastian's quest and the gear was good, but Sebastian himself is just sheer rubbish - he's like a nerfed version of Varric.

The big problem, however, is I can't see myself playing DA2 again after this playthrough, ME2 was absolutely stellar and it's DLC raised the bar as to what a player can expect from DLC, but I only bought them because I wanted more ME2. DA:O's DLC wasn't anywhere near as high-quality but it was competent, and like ME2 I wanted to play more DA:O.

I can't say the same for DA2.

[Purple People Eater]

If the DLC takes place in all new areas, ill most likely check it out, but if its just more quest within Kirkwall, Sundermount, and the Wounded Coast...ill pass.

[Begarian]

No, but I generally don't purchase DLC for any game. If Bioware makes an expansion similar to how Awakenings was handled, I'd consider it though.

Would like to say yes, but if DLC isnt different from the designs of DA2, i just might scream.

If they use recycled maps for DLC after all the notoriety they received in DA2, ill be convinced the dev team took none of the feedback seriously are persisting in recreating all the faults and mistakes made in DA2.

Better start doing vocal exercises then DLC is likley already made months ago and just going to be released on a schedule.

One of the Mods revealed that some of the Dev team are working on DLC right now, with others working on the patch, some on holiday and some lurking. (He didn't say where they were lurking...so keep an eye out at night just in case )

So... David Gaider is a ninja? I knew it!

[NRO TYN]

I think a good question would be is there gonna be any DLC for Origins 2 but i highly doubt that

[neppakyo]

I am getting sick of all these DLC's, from all companies. The majority of them are crap. DA2 is an average game and shouldn't have any slc's, unless they are free, to put back in content they ripped out.

If cheap.

That's how I feel. I can replay ME2 several times over. DA2 didn't give me the same motivation.

[Sanguinerin]

I purchased all of the downloadable content for Origins immediately because I enjoyed it so much. The only one that I probably wouldn't have bought in retrospect is Darkspawn Chronicles.

For Dragon Age II, I'm more skeptical. I liked it enough to play once, but it all depends on the significance of the DLC. If it's somewhat plot-important, lore-intense, or fills in some gaps then I'm more likely to buy it. If it involves frivolous amounts of items, I have enough of those from pre-ordering and subscribing to things. If it has new areas--meaning not just redecorated--and adds some depth, then I will most likely purchase.

Basically, this time around I'll be waiting on reviews.

[Wompoo]

Will purchase DLC, loved the story and the companions (miles ahead of DA:O's pain in the backside companions... accept Dog) far far more then DA:O. I have found just as many anoyances in DA2 as in DA:O (eg DA2 over used recycled world art; DA:O had washed out bland lifeless artl both had poor armor/robe choices... DA2 lack class builds and diversity; DA:O slow predictable and broken skills) and I still bought DLC. Overall the game has entertained me. As long as the DLC has zero Liliana or their new horrendous Dark Spawn I will buy it... if Merrill or Varric are in, then the DLC is a done deal.

I am tempted to, I really am. However after spending nearly all game trying to romance (spoiler) and she barely talks to me. I'm not sure if I am ready for another playthrough even with DLC in mind. The DLC would have to feature the same companions but a more in depth interaction with them. (I would pay if they had more lines) Perhaps I will replay DAO orgins again.

I don't know: I was completely disappointed by DA:O's DLCs post publication (Warden's Peak and The Stone Prisoner were good and honest DLC, especially the second one). Recycled areas/enemies and even cutscene. Paper thin stories, charachters and roleplaying. No depth about story and lore. Bugs after bugs. Glitches after glitches. Witch Hunt was a complete disaster that do not close anything, just a big money grab.

Honestly, I wasted a lot of money on a low quality product line and I feel someway cheated. A comparison with ME2's DLC (LotSB is the best DLC of last year imho) puts the DA:O's one to shame and since they costed mostly the same, one should ask himself if they think that we are all a bunch of stupid.

So, since I do not want to be cheated again, I will wait for reviews before I decide to buy a DA2 dlc or not and I will buy them only if the response is very_very_very positive (LotSB like, I mean).

[Jorrkit]

I will buy a "Take Merrill on a Date" expansion. =)

[SilentK]

I will buy it if it feels connected to the plot and my companions =) I loved to play LotSB for ME2. I have had a lot of fun with Shale. I did not enjoy Witch Hunt so much. But I guess that perhaps not every piece of dlc is targeted at me personally. I'll get the ones that appeal to me. Now I'm hoping to fill in one of the time jumps, get a new area to explore and hopefully some nice companion time, getting to know my group better. I don't get very piece of dlc for DA or ME. But I do get quite a few of them.

That's odd, who were you trying to romance but would barely talk to you?  I got a great deal of dialogue out of every romance option I pursued. (and even the one non-romance option)  I can only guess you didn't take them on enough, or the right missions?  Even the one person I would have liked to romance, but couldn't, gave me a lot of interaction and while that story ends up bitter-sweet, as unrequited affection goes, it was still interesting and I still ended up being very good friends with said person.

As for DLC, it depends upon the content - naturally - but I would LIKE TO buy it, if the quality and content seem interesting. 

[Schadowe]

NO, I bought all the DLC for the original DA except for the substandard Witch one, and all the available content for Mass Effect 2, but I will not be encouraging them to keep making bad console oriented games for the PC by purchasing anything at all for DA2.  If there is ever a DA3 I won't be pre-purchasing it either and will probably not pre-puchase any game this new EA influenced Bioware makes from now on.  In all probability I will also not hop on the Star Wars MMO bandwagon right away either as I was planning to do before this fiasco of a game was released.

It takes years of good work to build up a reputation but only moments to destroy it if you start using your reputation as a quality game maker as a means of cashing in quickly by releasing half baked games.  You wil make nice profits in the short term but lose any long term viability as you have destroyed the trust of your primary client base in your products.  This is what EA has done with DA2...spending the reputation capital of Bioware to boost their short term balance sheet because they knew the legions of DAO fans would buy any DA sequel that came out.  Unfortunately for EA this is not something you can do more than once or twice before the customers wise up and start taking a wait and see atitude with every game you release.  So from now on I will be waiting to see how their subsequent games turn out before spending my hard earned cash on them.

[Wentletrap]

Only if this forum tells me to.... 

I actually like the combat and the companions in this game, but it annoys me that there's such a limited number of settings and reused maps to enjoy them in. 

If a DLC can somehow rectify that with new maps and areas, then I might try it.

[Tereval]

Much like the Origins DLC I've been reading multiple reviews and making educated opinions. I was generally disappointed by DA:O DLCs so I'm going to be pretty careful.
I'm a sucker for story DLCs but most of the cosmetic and seasonal stuff I pass on. Mind you new companion armors I might get if the cost was reasonable enough.
