Here you go saw this on gamerinformer it not officially confirm though

Why do people keep referring to the Vimmark Mountains like it's been part of DA2? I've played through the game 4 times and this is the first I've heard about the Vimmark mountains. Only mountains I recall is Sundermount. 
That or I've missed something significant...multiple times!

I just hope it will be a Witch Hunt type DLC so we can use our character to go through it and not have to start a new game. I wont survive another play through....


No one should ever want another DLC like that Witch Hunt abomination.


Im not saying that I want another WH DLC, I'm saying that I want DLC that will allow me to use my character from a game that is already finished. I'm not interested in a Ostagar type DLC where I have to play through half of a game to see the DLC content. I know, someone already wrote that you can play the DLC as soon as you reach Kirkwall, but that means I have to start another playthrough and THATS what I want to avoid.

Vimmark is where Qunaris go to die.

If Bioware is using an epic word like legacy; this sounds like an expansion. I think a small side quest or mission would be more specific in term. You get an original word following title, like awakening, or legacy. Sounds like an expansion. Lets hope. Just no more cliff hangers, my wall and xbox controller cant sustain any more damage. j/k. But really, no more cliff hangers. Please.

So looking forward to this! I'm trying to keep an open mind about the promised changes, seeing as I personally loved DA2 the way it was. But I'm flexible, I can get used to change I think, especially if the story is good! :)

Why are people saying this is an expansion? It was already confirmed that this DLC is NOT an expansion.

I have seen several stories that the content is an expansion, not just normal DLC. Think about how long the game has been out. on gamefly, they called it an expansion. gameinformer though called it DLC, so i'm not sure.

who knows for sure, DLC or Expansion. either is fine by me because i thought DA II was a pretty good game.

I really hope it takes place after the gallows incident, showing Hawke and survivors escape and what they did up to a timeskip which catches us up wth varric's narration, but I don't think it will since it would require you to beat the game first :/

Laidlaw confirmed it's DLC. Longer than origins dlc, shorter than awakenings I believe was also said IIRC.

 "You get an original word following title, like awakening, or legacy. Sounds like an expansion."

Let's not forget "Arrival" DLC.  What an epic peice of disapointment that was.  And it was also a mission that could be played at any time in the Mass Effect 2 story, which really didn't make any sence.  I love Mass Effect but I was actually sorry I purchased that.

Soo does this mean I can play this DLC with my Post-endgame save ? I already re-started my playthrough because of the new patches and bug fixes so I won't miss a thing. I know you can play it early in-game but I wonder if the DLC itself will change by the time-jump

You can use the post-game save, it works the same way as the origin's post-game save. Chronologically the DLC will happen before the ending of act 3 if you do it from a post-game save.

The game launched in March, its almost July now. If you havent beaten the game its because:

1) You didn't want to play through a glitchy game. And waited until the most recent patch to start playing.
2) You recently purchased it
3) You enjoy taking your time and playing the game little more than an hour a day.

I would love to see post-ending Story but I doubt we will get it with the first DLC. I'm hoping that we get a few more DLC in the future where it chronicles what Hawke does during his time away from Kirkwall. I wouldn't mind seeing an entire expansion similar to Awakenings where Hawke makes camp someplace a safe distance from Kirkwall and begins to plan his retun; and get some tidbits of whats to come in DA3.

As long as we get some substantial length and possibly some Nathaniel I'm straight. Not a hard person to please

The only thing that could possibly bum me out about DLC for DA2 is if it comes out before August (when my semester break is, and i might actually have time to play!

Vimmark is where Qunaris go to die.


What this gentleman declared. However, to further specify, we've only technically been 'through' the mountains underground and partially on them; we haven't actually "explored" them. We go through the underground tunnels and eventually bring "Ketojan" (the Qunari mage Petrice asked us to escort) to the outside, technically 'on' the mountains, [SPOILER] where one was tasked with either letting him die at the hand of his fellow Qun, or by his own hand.

Basically, it looks like the outside of just about every mountain in the game from what we've seen. :)

Aaaah OK thanks for putting my mind at ease, it is because of the chronic non-descriptness that I didn't differentiate it from all the other generic areas! (sigh)

The "Vimmark Pass" we've seen in the game looks like many other areas (in particular, the Sunder Coast), but the screenshots Mike Laidlaw posted as teasers a while back suggest we'll see areas markedly different from the vanilla game's Vimmark Mountains and Deep Roads.

Because the DLC Deep Roads has griffons.  Sort of.

What do you mean "Vimmark Pass we've seen?" That's the Wounded Coast and Sundermount, right out Kirkwall. If you look at a map of the Free Marches, the Vimmark mountains start at Kirkwall and go all the way to Ostwick and Markham. They're huge! So to say that we have seen the area before or been to it is like saying we've seen the whole Free Marches from being in Kirkwall. Sundermount is right at the beginning of the Vimmark mountains and the Plastocene Forest (where a big chunk of DAL so far takes place), it's barely scratching the surface.

I can now confirm that Star Wars: The Old Republic with also be at San Diego Comic Con. They will be at the BioWare Base in the Gaslamp Hilton and in the convention hall at the Lucasarts/Star Wars booth. You do not need passes to visit us at the BioWare Base in the Gaslamp Hilton, but you do need Comic Con badges to get into the convention hall.

As we have more details on what Mass Effect, Dragon Age and Star Wars: The Old Republic activities we'll be taking part in at Comic Con, we'll keep proving updates. Stay tuned. :)



:devil:

She'll be around (in this DLC) but she might not have any more dialog.
