It’s also a shame that major bugs slipped through the cracks if one quest is completed the wrong way, it’s potentially game-breaking. Shame that the equipment system wasn’t revamped just like in the preceding game, it’s clumsy and hard to organize. The level cap is higher, new spells and classes are available, and there are quite a few new monsters to beat up. Story and setting aren’t the only new elements in Awakening the whole character system has been enhanced. Your goal is to find out why, how, and just what the hell they’re doing in Amaranthine. What operations? Well, the darkspawn-heinous, evil beasts who like to make things nasty for humankind-aren’t quite as mindless as they used to be, and some of them have even started talking. Task number one is to clear the baddies out of the abandoned Vigil’s Keep, which goes on to serve as your base of operations for the rest of the game. Whether you’ve played the original or not, Awakening forces you into unfamiliar circumstances, dropping your Grey Warden smack in the middle of Amaranthine, a country that was only mentioned peripherally in Dragon Age: Origins. Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening succeeds on all three levels, adding 15-20 hours worth of gaming to last year’s sprawling epic, enough to whet the appetite of most RPG fans. Top-tier video game expansion packs usually have three main goals: to reveal more about the game world to introduce new people, places, and things and to provide a fresh experience without changing too much.
