Dragon Age: Origins - Return to Ostagar Image
  • Summary: (Downloadable Content) Your memories of the battle of Ostagar will haunt you for years to come. It laid waste to your order and claimed the lives of many great men and women, including the brash young King Cailan and your mentor, Duncan. Now, there are rumors that a fellow survivor of the battle has escaped from captivity and is seeking the Grey Wardens' help. The time has come for the Grey Wardens to make their return to Ostagar and exact their revenge upon the darkspawn. [Electronic Arts] Expand

    Return to Ostagar doesn't add anything revolutionary to the Dragon Age experience. You'll know exactly what you're in for from the moment you load it up. With that said, it's every bit as good as the content that came with the original game, and it gives the Warden a chance to tie up one of the campaign's loose ends.
  2. It doesn't bring anything new to gameplay, but considering DA:O's battle system was already pretty darn good, no one can fault them for not trying anything new.
  3. Suffice to say, feeble half-baked offerings like this are a step in the wrong direction. Hopefully Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening will do a much better job next month.

  1. Do not be discouraged by the bad reviews from the big name reviewers. To even review this as a game itself is entirely unfair. This is not a standalone campaign or expansion, this is simply a short and cheap add on quest with a few unlockable items. Standard issue dlc. I like Cailans armor, and the quest itself fits in snuggly with the DA:O canon. Expand

    While Return to Ostagar is indeed very short, lasting at most half an hour if truth be told, it does add some new dialogue for every companion and contains some reasonable loot. It cannot compare to either of the two previously released DLCs but is still worth it for any fan wanting a little bit of extra content, especially at the very low price. Expand
