November 11, 200916 yr All these DA:O threads are actually making me want to buy the game/DLC just so I can see for myself. Still gaming with my 9900k/2080ti/32 ram. One day I suppose a game may inspire me to finally upgrade. Maybe.
November 11, 200916 yr Author better or worse deal than point lookout or broken steel? Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game. I am there. and the other player is there. and it's just the two of us. and I put the other player's body in my van. and I am the winner. - Nice Pete.
November 11, 200916 yr DLCs like Dragon Age's Wardens Keep or Oblivion's stuff are barely worth if they are free. Actually I wouldn't DL em manually even if they were free. Only reason why I have ring, Shale and dragons armor is because those got loaded automatically when I first started the game. I most likely skip more stuff on main game (and I'm person who usually does several runs unless gmae is really bad) when I'd get from DLC. Expansions or expansion type of DLCs like in GTA 4 are whole different matter. They can be even better then original game (happend for both NWN and NWN2 with HotU and MotB ). Same could be true for Dragon Age too. Let's play Alpha Protocol My misadventures on youtube.
November 11, 200916 yr I've tried to get upset about it... I just can't. It's the price of a stupid Xmas coffee in Starbucks. Am I missing something? Yes. You neglect the fact that some of us do not buy Starbucks for the same reason we think the DLC is not that great - it's too expensive for what you're getting. "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot
November 12, 200916 yr It's all relative.. It's cheaper then starbucks. It adds about 20 minutes of quest, it's got VO, there are some items, some extra "codex" related stuff if you happen to be interested in finding more out about the "world" and why the Warden's got kicked out of the country in the first place... On the downside, when you leave it, the keep locks itself and you only get a merchant and storage box outside. I guess having to redo the keep _without_ all the dead bodies, and cleaned up would have added too much to it.. Also, it's then possible to be stuck with a quest you can't complete because you can't re-enter the keep. One of those "codex" quests about a previous commander, when you find all four pieces of "codex" a quest opens up to find a secret cache. But if you leave the keep , you can't go back to find it. I read the riddle wrong and thought it might be back at the statue with the sword..so left the keep and boom.. Ah well, for a few odd pounds, it wasn't bad. But I was expecting a bit more.
