    Cash in DLC. This DLC dont have even new areas witch is ridiculous. Dragon age was a pretty good game but its DLCs are beyond ridiculous. EA is trying to Cash in on Bioware so hard, that Bioware is starting to fade from top quality.

    I really enjoyed this little DLC up until the final fight. No matter what I do the Archdemon always dies....even know I took down the 2 primary objectives. I can take so much dying until I'm emotionally overwhelmed and force myself to surrender to save my sanity. To see what happens if I had saved the Archdemon I had to resort to using console command to kill all enemies. NOT COOL at all!I really enjoyed this little DLC up until the final fight.

During this battle I felt as if I was playing an Real-time strategy genre game, not an Role-playing game that this game is suppose to be.… Expand

    It is in fact another brutish DLC for Dragon Age, and the roleplay is once again nowhere to be seen.

    While a few of the Darkspawn, the Ogre and Shriek, are fun to play around with, the short length, lack of customization options, and absence of any real character interaction make this bit of content too straightforward to be especially memorable.

    New DLC is a real “snack” – short and delicious. Its concept “What If…” is amusingly refreshing and scores with a dark sense of humor. We like to kill minions of Good! [Issue#192]
