I'll be buying. Hopefully get more DA lore and an expansion of hawkes story a bit. Anything story/lore based I'll buy. Item packs? Meh. Just got my annual bonus so I need something to spend it on, and 800 points really isn't that bad (to me).

Plus I'm still playing the heck out of DA2....

Probably not a day 1 purchase for me but I'm sure I'll get around to picking it up eventually.

when dragon age 2 came out, i assumed i would be buying each dlc that came out the day they came out, instead i find myself unable to finish the game cause i just lost interest. Bioware lost its touch, and im not really sure i want to pay money to see if they improved it. IF they released good free dlc that showed the dlc is better then the base game i would buy the dlc, but im just going to half to assume its as bad as the base game

Legacy was much better than DAII's base game and the people who got MotA early because of a fluke say that it's also better than DAII's base game.

Legacy is combat heavy while MotA is dialog heavy.

So I'd say they're worth it.

Nah.

Got legacy and it restored my faith enough to put the DA series back on the radar. But done with DA2.

Apparantly they are better, but I don't feel the need to spend additional funds on DLC which fixes largely superficial issues, particularly when I largely disliked the main game.

I think "much" better is an overstatement.  If you like the base game, you would appreciate the attempts to improve encounter design and the new areas.  If you don't like the base game, Legacy is not substantially different and all in all I found it bleh.

I think I'm not going to buy it on the first day. Hopefully not the first week. Maybe not even the first month (stay strong!).

I'll get it eventually, but without any sort of commitment to supporting their products, I'm honestly not that enthused about spending more money, at least not in the timeframe where it would contribute to the DLC being deemed financially successful (not that it will have any effect whatsoever, but what else can you do?).

So, as a status update, it looks like BioWare has taken steps to halt my principled stand by time-limiting their bonus item so that my purchase has to be within the profitability period.

So I can either forfeit the item and purchase later (letting them know that my purchase is deferred because they refuse to support me), or I can purchase to get the item (and power-grab for the achievement on Casual), and even though my opinion hasn't changed and I won't actually play the DLC anytime soon, my $10 is on the balance sheet and my concerns can be dutifully ignored (they were always going to be ignored, but now they make me complicit in their neglect).

So, sure, I'll pick up the DLC before the end of the month and will unlock the achievement, but you guys still suck. You're on my stank list, and you've now moved up a slot.

I guess I should break the seal and finally fire up DA2. I just finished a couple other games, so now I can finally start this one. I had completely forgotten I bought DA2 when it was released then I saw a message about new DLC for it. Ugh. Guess I know what I'm doing tomorrow! heheheh:D

After reading all the foaming about Felicia Day in the dlc and how awesome the party banter is from the feedback thread I am inclined to believe that this dlc is another Legacy with a goal to boast actors career (her character apparently dominates this dlc).
No one has also yet said if there is a option to discuss with party members when you want to, nor has anyone said if the cutscene discussion is in par with the party bantern. Bantern is nice to listen but it is not the reason to play a game.

It seems I will not be buying this dlc.

After Legacy I can't see any reason why I would bother with anything DA2 again. Especially not at the extortion prices they charge for letting us supposedly see how they "fixed" the game.

After completing my first playthrough of DA2, I decided not to buy any DLC for this game since I didn't enjoy it. The game was uninstalled shortly after and I won't spend 10$ for DLCs even if they are good, since I don't like the core. There are a lot of better games on the market right now that will get my attention and money way before any DA2 DLCs.

I still have to buy and play Golems and Witch Hunt for DAO, so this is where my money will go when I'll play a DA game again.

Nah, not now anyway. I like to play new DLC with a full run-through and the thought of another full runthrough of DA2 just now makes me...tired, I guess. I just started playing Jade Empire and have AC Brotherhood, AC Revelations, TW2, KotOR2, Skyrim, and those should keep me busy until ME3 comes out. Maybe after that. We'll see.

Didn't like the trailers or anything like that; too much flash for my taste still. But then, it looks above the standard DA2 fare, just like Legacy. Might even pick it up if I ever find myself with nothing to do and suddenly decide to reinstall DA2.

£10 for a four-ish hour DLC?! Robbery of the highest order for sure, they should be ashamed.

^it seems pretty expensive to me considering I got DA2 itself for £13

£10 pounds might not seem like much to you but that doesn't mean you can criticise other people for how they view expenditure. This dlc is pretty expensive as far as gaming goes if your prepared to pay that much for it then that's fine but don't criticise people who aren't or try to make them look foolish for it

It's a valid point. $10 is where I start questioning whether I really want something and I just paid $11.24. Other people can afford to be more or less tight with their money.

Still, Firky decided to buy it. Was pretty clear on passing, due to not liking the idea of in-game actor - as a generalised concept. But Firky remains committed to reconcilling the complex psychological soup that comes with being both an RPG diehard and stalwart supporter of DAII.

Cue someone calling me arrogant or similar ....
