Dragon Age: Origins To Get Paid DLC Expansion — On Launch Day

BioWare's upcoming RPG, Dragon Age: Origins, is set to launch on November 3rd. Today they announced details about some of the downloadable content they have planned for the game. In fact, it's scheduled to become available on the same day the game launches, at a cost of $7. (The PS3 version will be slightly delayed). "Called the Warden's Keep, the DLC will add a dungeon-based quest to the game along with six new abilities, a variety of items, and a base where players can trade with merchants. It will feature a supernatural storyline set in an ancient — and possibly haunted — fortress once used as a redoubt by the Grey Wardens, the ancient order at the center of Origins' main storyline." There will be two additional bits of DLC that are available for free to people who have purchased the game new. One "adds a stone golem character to the player's party from the beginning of the game, unlocking numerous story options," and the other increases a character's defense against some attacks in-game.

    What next, basic game for full price which unlocks you the first levels and for finishing the game you have to buy at least 200 dollars of special items?

    How the fuck is this even anywhere near that kind of idiocy?

    Face it, if this was released in 2 months time no one would say SHIT. You people are fucking insane turning DLC into a four-letter word, if the collectors edition was $67 and included this you would be buying it up without a fucking peep. Go fuck yourselves.
