DA:O DLC

#1 Posted by melcene (3056 posts) - 2 years, 4 months ago

I finally got around to popping this back in my PC after nearly a year.  (Turns out I had 97 hours in my game.) 
 
So here's the question though:  Given that DA2 will be out soon, which of the DAO DLC is must have?  Which will have any effect on the character I import?

Also, what order should they go in? 
 
I did get Return to Ostagar, Awakening, and Witch Hunt.  I know RtO doesn't matter so much, but if I were to go home today and play one of the other two, which should come first?

Awakening, witch hunt, leliana's song is the "must haves", but I forget what the rest of the 15 other dlcs are called.  Just buy the ultimate edition, awakening alone is 30-40 dollars.

Nah, Awakening was $14, even though it says $30 on their site.  And I had Bioware points to blow on the other stuff. 
 
Is Leliana's Song really worth it?  I was just kinda eh about playing as her.

Leliana's Song is the best peice of DLC because she is fully voiced. I'd even go as far to say I enjoyed it more then the entire full game, because it truly sucks to play a silent character in such a rich world. In  Leliana's Song's, any dialogue option you choose get's spoken, and that really made me like her character for it too.
 
Buy it, man.

Awakening, Leliana's Song and Witch Hunt are your best bets. Golems of Amgarrak is ok, but it can be glitchy...but it does tie into Dragon Age 2...allegedly....
