There wasn't a section for the Dragon Age series in general, so thought I'd just post it here.
If you're like me, when playing a large series like this, you'll also want to check out all of the 'supplementary' materials. So the novels, comics, DLC, Dawn of the Seeker film, etc.
For me at least, this really helps make the world feel more 'real' and helps me get emotionally attached.

My question though, is: Should I go through the series in its chronological order, or the order it was released in?
The chronological order is quite different to the release.

Here is the full chronological order:
Dragon Age: The Stolen Throne
Dragon Age: The Calling
Dragon Age: Journeys (Flash Game)
Dragon Age: Dawn of the Seeker
DA:O (Leliana's Song DLC)
Dragon Age (6 issues published by IDW)
Dragon Age (Table Top RPG)
Dragon Age: Origins (including The Stone Prisoner, Warden's Keep and Return to Ostigar DLC)
Dragon Age: Warden's Fall (Official Machinima)
DAO: Awakening
DAO (The Golems of Amgarrak and Witch Hunt DLC)
Dragon Age 2
Dragon Age: Redemption (YouTube series that featured Felicia Day)
Dragon Age Legends (Facebook game)
Dragon Age: Asunder
Dragon Age: The Masked Empire
Dragon Age: The Silent Grove
Dragon Age: Those Who Speak
Dragon Age: Until We Sleep
Dragon Age: Inquisition

For those who have gone through all (or many) of these, what do you think?
Thanks!

I personally found the series to be enjoyable in the order of release, but that's probably because I was here since the beginning :)

There's no reason why you couldn't.

I'd go for story-wise.

 

That's, what.

The Stolen Throne

The Calling

Origins

Awakening

Golems of Amgarrak

Witch Hunt

DA2

The Masked Empire

Asunder (there are mentions of TME-start events being full blown in Asunder)

Inquisition

 

I'm not sure where The Last Flight fits, exactly, but my guess is just before Inquisition.

I think Leliana's Song is best played AFTER Origins. Everything else works well in chronological order.

Agreed. Some things, even if they take place before, better played afterwards. it looks better in retrospective.

 

And The Last Flight I guess can be read after Inquisition (although i'm in the middle of reading it now and don't know how things end).

Leliana's Song is actually a story told by Lels, so post-Origins is fine.
