After you've recovered Vigil's Keep from the invading darkspawn, it's time to regroup (literally, gathering a new team of companions) and prepare for a new battle. And most oddly of all, there are hints at two separate factions.Īs you might expect from an RPG expansion, a slew of new abilities have been added in and a lot more levels to climb through. Their attacks seem more coordinated, more deliberate. Not only are they not retreating into the Deep Roads, but some of them are speaking. Something very strange is going on with the darkspawn. Shake that off, and things pick up quickly. The reason for this enemy's return is, in fact, the crux of the story, but it doesn't stop it being just a touch galling - as if your enormous efforts have been undermined. That's strange, given that I spent 100 hours playing the main game to put an end to the darkspawn attacks. It wouldn't be Dragon Age if you didn't fight a couple of dragons. My character, Simon, survived, and so I pick things up with the level 21 Grey Warden being attacked on his way to Warden stronghold Vigil's Keep to take up his post as Commander. The consequences of these can be dramatic enough that you might not even have a character to import into the start of Awakenings. There are a number of ways you could have chosen to end Dragon Age. Except, of course, that's not the case at all. That said, we can all rest easy because the Archdemon has been defeated, the Blight quashed, and now all citizens of Ferelden live in happy bliss, singing songs of praise to the mighty Grey Warden who saved the day. You've finished Dragon Age, right? By necessity, this review has to mention the events at the end of that game, so consider yourself spoiler-warned. It has a new setting, a (mostly) new crew of companions, new abilities, skills, spells and talents, and most importantly, a re-imagined approach that's appropriate to a shorter format while still achieving the necessary sense of scale. This expansion is 25 hours of full-scale new content, essentially an entire new game, that picks up the story however you may have left it. Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening is not another piece of crappy DLC following the dismal inclusions we've seen since the BioWare RPG's release last November. Let's remove any confusion from the start.
