I agree with Omecle and Yearg entirely, I could post a wall of text that would take an hour to write but they've pretty much made my points here. DLC is a huge step forwards in gaming terms, it allows us to have so much more replay and life value in a game. I'm generally against things such as costume packs for street fighter iv for example they're not a good use of dlc but... someone somewhere will just have to buy them and they're going to be the happiest person in the world because they did, so it's not for you move on for some people that simple £1.50 costume pack will make the world of difference at the same point the games dev's are making more money which in turn allows them to then focus on producing more content of substance and value or even another game entirely.

Ok so Levi Dryden in DA:O is in your camp but he doesn't spawn a "no backing out" conversation he doesn't grab you like characters do when you re-enter camp because they've been busy falling in love with you, you have to go over to him and speak to him so it's not forcing a prompt to buy DLC down your throat the minute you enter camp for the first time is it? You chose to speak to him you forced it on yourself, Bioware has nothing to answer for that for. Also if you were wondering if the Warden's Keep pack is worth it? The answer is yes, definitely is. I doubt it was originally intended to be a part of the game because the entire thing is a side quest not even a quest of great importance really but it gives you a full suit of armour, an entirely new area to investigate and explore, 4 new talents to unlock, 2 new shops selling unique or valuble gear, a party chest which gives you storage in the keep once the DLC is completed and much much more it can hugely affect how characters interact with you. So the pack took me 2 or so hours to do? 2 hours of solid gaming for £5 yes please.
