The latest in Dragon Age DLC titled Darkspawn Chronicles tells the story of an alternate timeline where you died at the Joining. The DLC specifically focuses on the final attack on Denerim as you lay siege as all of the Darkspawn (Genlock, Hurlock, Hurlock Emissary, Hurlock Vanguard, Genlock Sapper, Shriek, Ogre, and Blightwolf.) You will start at the front gate and progress through each section as you would have playing the regular game except this time you are killing all of the good guys, your party members and the NPC allies you conversed with. Eventually you will make your way to the top of the Tower and aiding the Archdemon against Allistair. The DLC clocking in at around an hour – 2 max of gameplay costs 400 points and although that is cheap and there are 3 new achievements, this DLC feels like it could be so much more. The customization of the game is very limited and there is no interaction with the different characters at all. Overall if you want the new achievements and want a taste of being a Darkspawn, check it out.
Pros:
+ New Achievements
+ Be the Darkspawn!
Cons:
- Short
- Lack of Customization and Conversation
