If something needed fixing, the developer would fix it.

How old are you?  There was, literally, 30 years where games had no patches.


You act as if Pong was broken and needed a patch.
If a game didn't have a patch, then maybe, just maybe, it was because the game had nothing to fix.

That was 10 years and more ago when game was much easier and with fewer ressources to produce. There were almost no 3D games and a reasonable amount of code. E.q the original Tetris was created by one man. 
Today games are very complex with many new technics and an almost unreasonable amount of code.

Talk about milking your fans ... Im sorry but these mini-downloads are rubbish, 30 minutes more content?? Come on, do the work and release a real expansion and then you can think of charging more money.

Each to their own, but I'd rather spend the money on an larger expansion or even another game than a bunch of mini-DLCs.

from the data we've seen so far, however, approximately half of you out there are playing as Warriors. Mages and Rogues are neck and neck at about 25% each.


Could this be because of most people still playing their first playthrough? I'm playing warrior in my first playthrough but I'm also set to go for mage in the second and rogue in the third playthrough...

You're right, every single game produced before 1999 was 100% perfect.

In the 1979 "Asteroids" arcade game would let you hide in your score box and never get hit
In the 1981 "Frogger" arcade game the player can control the computer frog for a moment
In the 1987 NES game "Final Fantasy", there is an invisible woman in one of the castles
In the 1991 SNES game "Street Fighter II - The World Warrior" Guile had a number of glitches moves that allowed him to dominate
In the 1991 Sega Genesis game "Zero Wing" for the Genesis: "All your base are belong to us"
In the 1996 Game Boy game "Pokémon Red/Blue" players could find a creature called MissingNo and Pokémon over level 100 (causing glitches in the Hall of Fame), you could fish in statues, invisible computers, and more
In the 1996 Nintendo 64 games "Super Mario 64" players could use the rabbit to walk through doors

Those were all patched, or were intended features.  Nintendo sent out patches for their Game Boy games, right? Because there was never a time where games didn't have patches...

Speaking of games not having patches, when is Dragon Age going to get one that fixes the major problems?

You're right, hard drive-less games didn't have patches!
Those developers shouldve sent new cartridges to everyone who bought those game!
How dare they not spend millions of dollars doing just that!

Yes. That only means that it will first be available around the holiday season, but it will continue to be available afterwards.

I think the price is pretty fair, and for a game of DA's caliber I welcome any additional content.



I just have one question Rob. Will there be any new outfits for us trendy mages? Please give us some new styles of hats. Or maybe a robe with a hood so you can look like a badass wizard. :)

Keep your eyes peeled for some of Duncan's items. You'll know them when you see them. ;o)

Yay! Can we avenge Duncan and the King? You know, The Ogre (and the Alpha Hurlock thing). Those bastards!

another one who doesnt listen.
Its not about the money, its how they charge us for micro transaction with content that nobody really want.
Now you might say well I want this, ye and that because you take anything over nothing.
is that what you want? lame content just because its cheap?
or do you demand something that is actually worthwhile over DAO and EAS plan to probably release 5-10 crappy DLC for 400 points?


People take anything these days.



Yup...the moment you give me money you can tell me how to spend it until then enjoy whining on this board while we enjoy the game 8)


Hey, good to know that you can be fed poo and still smile :innocent:


Take your toys and go home kid. Come back when you're enough adult to be able to discuss decently.

lol at all the fighting on here, the point of this was to ask questions not to give your opinion.



I want to gripe about not having release dates so that I have to check this site atleast once a day to see whats going on. "sometime in the holiday" ... so that means anywhere from now onward for about a month.



btw I hate how my elf is like 6 inches shorter than everyone (since were all doing the opinion thing regardless)

I want to know if there is going to be a kickass video to advertise this like for The stone prisoner and Wardens keep. It would be awesome.

I`ll just hope this DLC will not install on my C drive even my game is somewhere on drive p: ...cause my damn c: is always full (or i don`t know what to do to avoid this)

I love this game and I am all for new content, but fix the DLCs that are currently broken. Many PC users are having problems with Soldier's Peak disappearing from their maps and Shale teleporting them into oblivion. I spent $7 on Warden's Peak and got to experience none of it.



I went from thoroughly enjoying the game to spending my free time agonizing over how to fix it.



There has been more than enough evidence that there are game breaking bugs with the DLCs. Please at least acknowledge these and let us know if you are working on a patch or you can count many of us out for future DLCs. Fool us once...

Microsoft has decided that you have to share your computer with other people, so the DLCs each of you has bought need to be in separate folders,because  those other people playing on your PC might be complete strangers and sharing your DLCs with them would be highly illegal.

The solution is moving the My Documents folder to another drive (mine is E:\\Savegames, right under E:\\Games) and saving your documents into another folder of your choice.

well, im glad they are releasing more dlc content, because us console players cant use the toolset, so this is all we get >.>

and to the people asking for an expansion, well you cant "really" make an expansion for this game, because some people didn't live in the end =P unless they want to pull a cheezey fallout 3 type ending and say "oh wait you didn't really die! umm this happened and you live on!". many people have also talked about how for epilogue saves its pretty much just going back for the sake of loot whoring, but you could always make a new character and play the dlc sometime in the middle of your playthrough, where it would be more useful. but i do agree that instead of releasing little dlcs here and there, they could take more time, and release a larger dlc with more content to the point that it seems relevant.

Which maps are going to be available exactly? Can we go back to the Korcari Wilds and the Tower of Ishal? Unless I'm wrong darkspawn flooded the tower from its lower chambers, so it would make sense to add them in the DLC.

btw, i read that they planned on having two years of official dlc releases for da. and its been out a month and we already have a new one coming. so that will add up to a nice chunk of content at the end.
