Dragon Age - DLC Roundup

by Dhruin, 2010-09-13 11:52:23

Eurogamer has a review roundup of all the Dragon Age DLC released, with a short wrap and a score for each.  Obviously Witch Hunt is topical, so the score for that one is 6/10 and here's the conclusion:

Witch Hunt mimics the structure of a decent Dragon Age quest, and is at least fully voiced, but it fails to make the emotional connections that would make it work. Once again, you're stuck with a party of anonymous new characters rather than the colourful companions you grew to love over 30-plus hours of gaming, and Witch Hunt doesn't even have the good grace to offer a compelling reason why you're suddenly on Morrigan's trail. You just are, because that's what the DLC is about.

As an excuse to spend another mildly diverting evening in Ferelden, Witch Hunt does its job, but it's a functional offering rather than an inspiring one. Hamstrung by the piecemeal nature of Dragon Age DLC, and squandering a lot of the brilliantly constructed narrative from the full game, it's for completists only.
