A pretty dull DLC in an otherwise enjoyable game. The interesting premise is mostly wasted - as in Inquisition’s Trespasser DLC, your player character finds himself unneeded and adrift in the time following the main campaign. In this case, the ultimate goal is finding Morrigan, your sorceress companion with an agenda from the main game.

Virtually everything about this feels mailed in from a gameplay standpoint - the companions are only barely sketched, the combat encounters are mostly mobs requiring little strategy, and almost all of the environments are lazily reused. Strangely, this is arguably the most significant piece of Dragon Age DLC from a lore standpoint, as it greatly expands upon the story of the eluvians, which plays a huge role in later games. The final encounter with Morrigan is tantalizing, but the gameplay leading up to it is so limp that it hardly feels worth it.
