Oh, nvm. I managed to track down that the patch does come with RTO. Well, I hope it's a free download released alongside RTO...but I'll assume that's the case.
The game will prompt you to download the patch when you start the game while connected to Xbox Live, yes. No RTO needed.
Thank you! Good to know.

I was just reading through the last few pages of this thread and had a realization. This thread is like the Golden City in the game. We had the options to use it for good intentions (ie no griping) and now because we have griped, the maker (ie Chris and Rob and others) have abandoned us to our fates.
So all those people that complain, I hope you get dragged under the ground to become darkspawn! hehehehe
Why, yes, when I spend 40 hours on an RPG and every ending is completely fubar I
may complain.

I liked a lot of Dragon Age more than I expected. But...really I just want the darn thing to be patched. It's a hot mess. I love dialog trees and the battle system is much better than Mass Effect's, back to KotR (a game I enjoyed backwards and forwards) but refined. My initial assumption of some pretty ugly "real is brown" is correct. Real is apparently really, really brown. Yeah yeah, lack of radiosity, etc. But when given the choice I prefer WoW to desaturation.
Dialog trees are great! Love them. Adore them. Keeps me entertained for hours, really. Which makes it all the more frustrating that my choices don't pay off because the game can't keep track of who the ruler of Fereldan currently is, what my gender is, or who my character's dating, among other glitches.
So. yeah, I complain. I'll probably still buy the extra content for more dialog trees. They're so addictive...but I don't think it's much to ask that the product work, first, or that I have something to look at. Honestly the dungeon from The Stone Prisoner is heads above any other zone in the game in terms of lighting and color so it's not like I don't have hope that the addons will be neither dingy nor glitchy!
